Since the emergence of high-pressure cleaning machines, they have played a significant role in various fields. They can quickly and easily clean pipelines, various types of vehicles, roads, ship decks, or high walls of buildings in factories. Ultra-high pressure water jets can also be used to cut hard metal objects and so on. However, everything has two sides. If not handled properly, the powerful water jet may also cause harm to people. Only through necessary learning and training, mastering some skills and principles that need to be familiar with, can the work be completed safely and smoothly without causing harm to oneself and others. Pay attention to the appropriate protective equipment, cleaning liquids, power source safety, and so on.
When operating and using a high-pressure cleaning machine, carefully read the manufacturer's operation manual. Each high-pressure cleaning equipment model is different, and following the instructions of your equipment model will help you operate safely and effectively.
Analyze and evaluate the project and work plan you are operating. Consider the required pressure value: if you are washing wall panels or fences, the pressure of work from top to bottom in different parts will be different. Consider fragile and thin objects, such as windows, vents, or lights, and avoid high-pressure cleaning.
Select a suitable nozzle or spray head and install it on the equipment. The nozzle is connected to the high-pressure cleaning pump and motor through a hose connection. The nozzle determines the water pressure, so it must be selected properly. Equipping appropriate parts will help provide greater power.
Decide whether to use chemicals. Most models of machines or special nozzles allow you to add high-pressure spray cleaning agents or detergents. Adding chemicals can make cleaning projects easier and faster. When selecting the appropriate chemical solution, refer to manual for instructions on how to add chemicals.
Wear protective goggles and gloves before starting operation. If the construction noise is loud, you can also consider using earplugs to protect your ears.
Before turning on high-pressure cleaning machine, check all connections to ensure they are tight. A loose nozzle can become a projectile that can harm personnel and damage property when you turn on the power.
Start the pressure pad and test spray. Step-by-step testing from near to far, and then slowly spray to 2 to 3 meters away. Operate several times, and then stop for a moment to see if it is clean. If not, continue to operate closer.
After determining the ideal spray distance, continue to move slowly and steadily on the surface until cleaned surface or object meets the required standards.
If you use chemical solutions, wait 5 to 10 minutes for chemical solution to fully function, and then rinse the surface with clean water until it is clean, achieving satisfactory results.
The high-pressure cleaning equipment cleaning system should be regularly maintained and maintained to keep it in good condition at all times. This is a prerequisite for using a high-pressure cleaning machine well.
