3 Before starting the cleaner
3.1 Transport and assembly
1. The safest way to lift the ma-
chine is to use a fork-lift truck
The arrows in the illustration
indicate the best places to position the fork.
2. It is also possible to lift the machine by hand from the pallet.
Due to the weight this work
should be done by at least
three persons.
CAUTION!
Do not hold the plastic tank to lift
the machine as it could become
detached from the frame.
The best places to hold the ma-
chine are
– on the handle
– on the frame between the front
wheels and the guide rollers.
Every fuel-burning appliance, such
as pressure washers, depends
upon a proper mix of fuel and air
(by weight) for proper combustion.
Therefore some adjustment of the
air supply to the burner may be necessary to take account of altitude
and the resulting air pressure. This
is true whether your fuel is ‘Natural
gas’, Propane or Diesel.
Your Nilfisk hot water pressure
washer was thoroughly tested and
adjusted for optimum performance
before it left our factory. The factory
is located at approximately 120m
(390 ft) above sea level, and the
combustion settings are optimal for
that elevation.
If your location is higher than
1200m (3900 ft) above sea level,
your burner may require readjustment for proper performance and best fuel economy.
Contact your Dealer or Nilfi sk
for assistance.
3.2 Set the brake
1. Before using the cleaner for
the fi rst time, check it care-
fully for any faults or damage.
2. Run the machine only when
it is in perfect working condition.
3. Set the brake.
4. The slope on which the high
pressure cleaner is placed
must not exceed more than
100 in any direction.

5.1.2 Detergent and Foam
Foam or detergent should be applied onto dry surfaces so that the
chemical product is in direct contact with the dirt. Detergents are applied from bottom to top, for example on a automobile bodywork, in
order to avoid “super clean” areas, where the detergent may collect
in higher concentrations and streams downwards. Let the detergent
work for several minutes before rinsing before rinsing and never let
it dry on the surface being cleaned.
5.1.3 Temperature Detergents are more effective at higher temperatures. Greases, oils
and fats can be broken down more effectively at higher temperatures
also. Proteins can be cleaned at temperatures of around 60°C (140°F).
Oils and traffi c fi lm around 70°C (158°F), and grease can be cleaned
at 80°-90°C (176-194°F).
5.1.4 Mechanical Effect In order to break down tough layers of dirt, additional mechanical
effect may be required. Special lances and rotary or wash brushes
offer this supplementary effect that cuts through dirt.
5.1.5 High Water Flow or
High Pressure
High pressure is not always the best solution and may also damage
surfaces. The cleaning effect also depends upon water fl ow. Pres-
sure levels of around 100 bar (1450 psi) may be suffi cient for vehicle
cleaning (in association with hot water) and higher fl ow levels give
the ability to rinse and fl ush away large amounts of dirt easily.
5 Applications and methods
Effi cient high pressure cleaning is achieved by following a few
guidelines, combined with your own personal experience of specifi c
cleaning tasks. Accessories and detergents, when correctly chosen,
can increase the effi ciency of your pressure washer. Here is some
basic information about cleaning.
5.1.1 Soaking
Encrusted or thick layers of dirt can be loosened or softened up by a
period of soaking. This is for example an ideal method within agriculture – for example, within pig sties. The ideal soaking method can be
achieved by using foam or simple alkaline detergent. Let the product
lie on the dirty surfaces for about 30 minutes before pressure washing.
The result will be a much quicker high pressure cleaning process.

2. Remove the dirt from surfaces with the high pressure
lance or chosen accessory. Again, clean from bottom
to top on vertical surfaces.
3. To fl ush away large quantities of dirt, change to low
pressure mode and use the higher fl ow to push away
the dirt.
4. Use recommended disinfectant products and methods
to ensure hygiene. Apply DES 3000 disinfectant once
the surfaces are perfectly clean.

with a product such as Allosil in order to remove traces
of insects etc, then rinse at low pressure and apply
normal car cleaning detergent. Let detergents settle
for 5 minutes before cleaning off. Metallic surfaces
can be cleaned using RimTop.
2. Proceed with cleaning using the high pressure lance.
Clean again from bottom to top. Use accessories to
clean in diffi cult to reach places. Use brushes in order
to add a mechanical cleaning effect. Short lances can
help for cleaning of motors and wheel arches. Curved
lances or undercarriage washers can be valuable for
the cleaning of car underchassis and wheel arches.
3. Clean fragile areas such as motors, rubber at lower

Apply on dry surfaces. Apply from top to bottom on
vertical surfaces. Let the foam act for up to 30 minutes
for the optimal effect.
2. Proceed with cleaning using the high pressure lance.
Use applicable accessories. Use high pressure to
dislodge large amounts of incrusted dirt or grime.
Use lower pressure and high water volume in order
to rapidly fl ush away loose dirt and rinse surfaces.
3. Apply DES 3000 disinfectant once the surfaces are
perfectly clean.
Areas covered by amounts of loose dirt, such as animal
remains in slaughterhouses, can be removed by using
high water fl ow to fl ush away the dirt to evacuation pits
or drains.
Tank cleaning heads can be used to clean barrels, vats,
mixing tanks etc. Cleaning heads may be hydraulically or
electrically powered and give the possibility for automatic
cleaning without a constant user.
