CLEANING TIPS
Deck Cleaning
(with or without detergent)
Pre-rinse deck and surrounding area with
fresh water. If using Kärcher Deck & Patio
Cleaner, (Canada: Dec + Fence Wash)
place detergent suction tube directly into
cleaning solution and apply to surface at
low pressure. For best results, limit your
work area to smaller sections of approxi-
mately 25 square feet. Allow detergent to
remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do not allow
detergent to dry on surface. Rinse at high
pressure in a long sweeping motion keeping
the spray nozzle approximately 3-6 inches
from the cleaning surface. Always clean
from top to bottom and from left to right.
When moving on to a new section of the
cleaning surface, be sure to overlap the
previous section to eliminate stop marks
and ensure a more even cleaning result.
Caution: Do not use Dirtblaster® spray
nozzle on wood surface as it may cause
damage.
House Siding
(with or without detergent)
Pre-rinse cleaning surface with fresh water.
If using Kärcher Exterior House Cleaner
(Canada: Pressure Wash), place detergent
suction tube directly into cleaning solution
and apply to surface at low pressure (for
best results, limit your work area to sections
of approximately 6 feet and always apply
detergent from bottom to top). Allow
detergent to remain on surface 1-3 minutes.
Do not allow detergent to dry on surface, if
surface appears to be drying, simply wet
down surface with fresh water. Rinse at high
pressure from top to bottom in an even
sweeping motion keeping the spray nozzle
approximately 6 inches from the cleaning
surface.
Caution: Do not use Dirtblaster® Spray
Nozzle on siding as it may cause damage.
Cement Patios, Brick and Stone
(with or without detergent)
Pre-rinse cleaning surface with fresh water.
If using Kärcher All Purpose and Vehicle
Wash (Canada: Pressure Wash or
Degreaser), place detergent suction tube
directly into cleaning solution and apply to
surface at low pressure. For best results,
limit your work area to smaller sections of
approximately 25 square feet. Allow
detergent to remain on surface 1-3 minutes.
Do not allow detergent to dry on surface.
Rinse at high pressure in a sweeping motion
keeping the spray nozzle approximately 3-
6 inches from the cleaning surface. Always
clean from top to bottom and from left to
right. For removing extremely stubborn
stains, use Kärcher Dirtblaster® Spray
Nozzle.
Cars, Boats & Motorcycles
(with or without detergent)
Pre-rinse vehicle with fresh water. If using
Kärcher All Purpose and Vehicle Wash,
(Canada: Pressure wash or vehicle wash)
place detergent suction tube directly into
cleaning solution and apply to surface at low
pressure. For best results, clean one side
of vehicle at a time and always apply
detergent from bottom to top, do not allow
detergent to dry on surface. Rinse at high
pressure in a sweeping motion keeping the
spray nozzle approximately 6-8 inches from
the cleaning surface (distance should
increase when rinsing pin-striping or other
sensitive surfaces). Always clean from top
to bottom and from left to right. For best
results, wipe surface dry with a chamois or
soft dry cloth.
Caution: Do not use Dirtblaster® Spray
Nozzle on vehicles as it may cause damage.

CLEANING TIPS – continued
Barbecue Grills, Outdoor Power
Equipment & Gardening Tools
(with or without detergent)
Pre-rinse cleaning surface with fresh water.
If using Kärcher All Purpose and Vehicle
Wash or Heavy Duty Degreaser (Canada:
Pressure Wash or Degreaser), place
detergent suction tube directly into cleaning
solution and apply detergent at low
pressure. Allow detergent to remain on
surface 1-3 minutes. Do not allow detergent
to dry on surface. Rinse at high pressure
keeping the spray nozzle approximately 3-
6 inches from the cleaning surface. For
removing extremely stubborn dirt, it may be
necessary to move the spray nozzle even
closer to the surface for greater dirt cutting
action. To remove caked on mud from
garbage cans, lawn mower blades, wheel
barrels or other non-sensitive metal
surfaces, you may want to use the Kärcher
Dirtblaster® Spray Nozzle.
Caution: Do not use Dirtblaster® Spray
Nozzle on cloth, plastic or other sensitive
surfaces as it may cause damage.
Patio & Lawn Furniture
(with or without detergent)
Pre-rinse furniture and surrounding area

allow detergent to dry on surface. Rinse at
high pressure in a sweeping motion keeping
the spray nozzle approximately 3-6 inches
from the cleaning surface. For best results,
clean from top to bottom and from left to
right.
Caution: Do not use Dirtblaster® Spray
Nozzle on patio or lawn furniture as it may
cause damage.
Recommendations
 Before cleaning any surface an
inconspicuous area should be cleaned to
test spray pattern and distance for
maximum cleaning results.
 If painted surfaces are pealing or chipping,
use extreme caution as pressure washer
may remove the loose paint from the
surface.
 When using on surfaces which might
come in contact with food, flush
surfaces with plenty of drinking water.
OPTIONAL CLEANING ACCESSORIES
Optional cleaning accessories are available
to further enhance your cleaning
capabilities.

incluido al frente de la máquina.
 Boquilla roja = 0°
para la eliminación de la sucieda
resistente y fuertemente adherida.
 Boquilla amarilla = 15°
para la limpieza de la suciedad que se
encuentra cubriendo superficies.
 Boquilla verde = 25°
para la limpieza de la suciedad que se
encuentra cubriendo grandes superficies.
 Boquilla blanca = 40°
para la limpieza de la suciedad que se
