Use the width of the spray pattern to wash in a wide path. Overlap spray paths for complete coverage. 10. The nozzle should be 12” to 24” from the work, closer for tough areas. Max Chemical Ratio is 13:1 Caution: Be careful on painted or delicate surfaces, the pressure may damage the surface if the nozzle is too close. 11. Small parts should be washed in a basket so the pressure does not push them away. Larger, light weight parts should be clamped down. 12.
