1 Important safety instructions  
Transport  
recoil forces are produced at the  
gunvalve and spray lance and,  
when the spray lance is held at  
an angle, a torque is also cre-  
ated. The gunvalve and spray  
lancemust therefore be held  
firmly in both hands.  
For safe transport in and on  
vehicles we recommend pre-  
venting the equipment from  
sliding and tilting. Secure it with  
tie-downsl.  
For your own safety  
The high-pressure cleaner  
should only be used by author-  
ized persons who have been  
instructed in its use.  
For transport at temperatures  
around or below freezing 0°C  
(32°F), anti-freeze should be  
drawn into the pump beforehand  
(see chapter 6).  
Do not use the cleaner when  
other people without protective  
clothing are in the working area.  
Check that cleaning will not  
result in dangerous substances  
(e.g. asbestos, oil) being  
washed off the object to be  
cleaned and harming the envi-  
ronment.  
Although extremely easy to  
operate, children should not be  
allowed to use the cleaner.  
Before starting the cleaner

3.1 Transport and assembly  
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-ALTO hot water  
pressure washer was thor-  
oughly tested and adjusted for  
optimum performance before  
it left our factory. The factory is  
located at approximately 200m  
(650 ft) above sea level, and the  
combustion settings are optimal  
for that elevation.  
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.  
If your location is higher  
than 1200m (3900 ft) above  
sea level, your burner may  
require re-adjustment for  
Every fuel-burning appliance,  
such as pressure washers, de-  
pends upon a proper mix of fuel proper performance and best  
and air (by weight) for proper

5 Applications and methods  
5.1  
Techniques  
Efficient high pressure cleaning is achieved by following a few  
guidelines, combined with your own personal experience of specific  
cleaning tasks. Accessories and detergents, when correctly chosen,  
can increase the efficiency 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 agricul-  
ture – 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 wash-  
ing. The result will be a much quicker high pressure cleaning proc-  
ess.  
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 ap-  
plied 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 tempera-  
tures also. Proteins can be cleaned at temperatures of around 60°C  
(140°F). Oils and traffic film 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 flow. Pres-  
sure levels of around 100 bar (1450 psi) may be sufficient for vehicle  
cleaning (in association with hot water) and higher flow levels give  
the ability to rinse and flush away large amounts of dirt easily.

remove traces of insects etc, then rinse at low pres-  
sure 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 ac-  
cessories to clean in difficult to reach places. Use  
brushes in order to add a mechanical cleaning ef-  
fect. 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.
