Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com OVERVIEW DECRIPTIONS UNPACKING Unpack your patio surface cleaner and check to ensure the following items are present. Contact your CLARKE dealer immediately if any parts are missing or damaged. INSTALLATION & PREPARATION NOZZLE SELECTION & INSTALLATION 1. Your cleaner comes installed with one set of 25020 nozzles (25 degree and 2.0 orifice). 2. The minimum orifice size to be used in the cleaner is half that which is being used in your pressure washer. Example: If your pressure washer uses a size 5 orifice, you will need to use a size 2.5 orifice in the cleaner, (two nozzles x size 2.5 orifice = size 5 orifice). 3. The nozzles being used should have a 15o-25o spray pattern; anything less that a 15o spray pattern can damage the area being cleaned, anything more than 25o may not allow the bar to rotate. 4. Nozzles should be screwed into the rotating spray bar. The spray fan should be parallel to the rotating spray bar as shown. CLEANER ASSEMBLY 1. Line up the holes on the lower handle part with the holes on the aluminium supports on top of the cleaner assembly. 1: High Pressure Hose 4: Bridge Pin x 3 2: Upper Handle 5: Lower Handle 3: Clevis Pin x 3 6: Cleaner Assembly

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com 2. Insert a clevis pin through each of the supports and lower handle and secure in place with a bridge pin. 3. Attach the upper handle by lining up the holes in the upper and lower handles. Insert a clevis pin through the aligned hole and secure in place with a bridge pin. 4. Quick connect the cleaner hose assembly to the handle and to the swivel located in the centre of the cleaner assembly.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com SET UP 1. Locate the high pressure discharge hose on your pressure washer and ensure it is securely connected to the water outlet of the pressure washer (consult your pressure washer user manual for more information). 2. Quick connect the other end of the high pressure discharge hose to the gun on the cleaner handle. 3. Connect the water supply hose, one end to your pressure washer, the other end to a pressurised water supply (consult your pressure washer user manual for more information). SURFACE PREPARATION 1. Clear any loose debris from the area to be cleaned. 2. NEVER attempt to clean a surface with objects that protrude from the surface being cleaned. Striking any raised obstacle during operation will damage the cleaner. If contact does occur and results in vibration when operating the cleaner, STOP and replace spray bar. PRE-START INSPECTION PROCEDURES 1. Inspect the cleaner before each use. Tighten the rotating spray bar, bolts and fittings as needed. 2. Ensure all connections are secure. Turn the water supply fully ‘ON’. 3. Inspect hoses for kinking, cuts or leaks. If found, DO NOT USE THE HOSE, replace damaged hoses before starting work. 4. Unlock the trigger on the gun and squeeze the trigger. Water will begin flowing from the nozzles on the rotating spray bar. Ensure the nozzles are not clogged and spray pattern is not erratic. Change the nozzles before proceeding if problems exist. 5. Be sure that any damaged parts are replaced and that the mechanical problems are corrected prior to operation. If you need service, contact the CLARKE service department. WARNING: RISK OF INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE CLEANER. NEVER OPERATE THE CLEANER IF IT BEGINS TO VIBRATE. SHUTDOWN THE CLEANER AND TIGHTEN THE ROTATING SPRAY BAR, BOLTS AND FITTINGS.
