Operator’s Manual 21
REMOVING PAINT
IMPORTANT: Remember that high pressure spray can
gouge soft woods and other materials, as
well as loosen grout.
1. Place nozzle end in high pressure position and very
narrow spray pattern.
2. Direct spray at a 45° angle about 4 to 12 inches (10 to
30 cm) from surface.
3. Spray in a back and forth motion, try to get beneath the
loose and bubbled paint.
4. Do not be concerned with the paint that remains. It
should be sufficiently bonded so as not to cause
repainting problems.
5. Some remaining paint may curl up at the edges. These
edges should be scraped with a steel brush or scraper
just before painting.
CLEANING RADIATOR FINS
IMPORTANT: Some engine and radiator manufacturers
may not permit cleaning radiators with a
high pressure washer. See equipment
Operator’s Manual.
1. Use clean water without detergent.
IMPORTANT: Spray straight into the radiator to prevent
bending fins.
2. If possible, direct spray in the direction opposite to
normal air flow through the radiator.
