Task Accessories
‘Click & Clean’
Cleaning method
Car Car nozzle,
auto brush,
underchassis
nozzle,
Foam sprayer,
neutral car wash
1. Apply neutral car wash with the foam sprayer. Always start from
the bottom and work upwards. Let neutral car wash act for approximately 5 minutes.
2. Wash the car with the car nozzle, which has been optimized for
quick and gentle cleaning of enamelled surfaces (the jet is wider
and not so sharp). Start at the front of the car and work backwards to avoid water from entering the car via the door seals.
3. Use the brush for removal of traffi c fi lm which is not removed by the
nozzle. If the car is very dirty, apply neutral car wash again.
4. Attach the undercarriage nozzle and clean undercarriage and
wheel arches.
5. Remove water from the surface of the car with the squeegee
on the car brush. Make sure that all grains of sand etc. have
been removed before using the squeegee. Wipe with a wash
leather where the squeegee cannot reach.
Flagstones,
concrete
fl oors and
other hard
surfaces
Powerspeed®
nozzle,
neutral detergent
Patio Cleaner
Wash towards outlets or the like. On surfaces with moss or al-
gae you may start by applying neutral detergent with the foam
sprayer. Wash before the soap dries. Another more effective and
quicker method is to use the Patio Cleaner. Thus you will also
avoid splashes.
Garden
furniture,
wood
Neutral detergent
Garden brush
Apply neutral detergent and wash before the soap dries.
NOTE: Use the garden brush to clean off the dirt.
Brick-work,
Wood work
Powerspeed®
nozzle,
neutral detergent,
Patio Cleaner
Same method as for fl agstones, but be careful - bad joints and
wood may be damaged by high pressure. You may choose only
to use the Tornado® nozzle. Adjust the distance (pressure) to the
quality of the joints and the wood. Patio Cleaner can also be used
on vertical surfaces.
Gutter Underchassis spray
lance
Wash the gutter with the nozzle. Always wash towards
downpipes. Beware not to spray under the roofi ng.
Cleaning of
drain pipes,
out-lets,
down pipes

Tube cleaner Push the tube cleaner approx. ½ m (to mark) into a tube or drain

effi ciently and quickly removed. Beware not to damage the surface to be sandblasted.
