4 Roof Cleaning

4.1 General information about roof cleaning

The best cleaning results are obtained in the evening in autumn/spring where fouling on the roof is in growth.

If the fouling is very dry it is necessary to apply pure water to the roof before cleaning and wait 0,5-1 hour before applying the detergent. This can be done by removing the detergent hose from the detergent canister. Adding water is to ensure that the pores open and the fouling can thus be affected by the detergent.

Depending on the degree of the fouling, it may be necessary with an additional treatment after 2-3 months.

The Nilfisk detergent causes only harm to plants when large amounts of detergent are applied.

Do not stand on the roof or on a latter when cleaning. The Roof Cleaner is

made for safe ground operation.

If the gutter of the house is connected to a rain water collection system, make sure that the detergent is not collected but disposed in the right way.

The detergent kills the fouling but does not remove it. This is done via rain, wind, etc that with time will flush the fouling into the gutter.

The result of the decomposition of the fouling can, depending on the conditions, be seen after 4-6 weeks. Full effect can be seen after 4-6 months.

When applying the detergent to the roof, please observe that the detergent is not directed under any roof tiles as this may cause damages to the house.

Wind will affect the direction and the length of the jet. Best result is obtained when cleaning is done on a day with no wind.

Wear goggles, protection gloves and clothes to ensure that your skin,

eyes, etc do not get in contact with the detergent.

4.2 Detergent Buy detergent for roof cleaning

from your local Nifisk dealer.

Only use original Nilfisk detergent. Observe the safety precautions on the detergent bottle.

4.3 Detergent suction Put the detergent hose (6) with

strainer (7) into the detergent canister. Observe that the strainer is not clogged and that the strainer is located at the bottom of the canister.

4.4 Adjusting the detergent suction

The Nilfisk detergent shall be mixed in a 10% ratio. The corresponding adjustment of the

detergent knob will depend on the machine and the degree of fouling.

$$ \approx 8 \% $$

$$ \approx 10 \% $$

$$ \approx 16 \% $$

4.5 Adjustment of angular coupling

Adjust the angular coupling by pressing the button. When the right position has been found release the button and the coupling will lock. Ensure that it is safely locked.

4.6 Adjustment of telescopic lance length

Adjust the telescopic lance to the desired length. Fix the tubes by rotating the connectors. Check that the tubes are properly fixed before start.

4.7 Choice of foam nozzle Pencil jet,foam nozzle:

An extensive working area is achieved by using the pencil jet foam nozzle.

Wide angle foam nozzle: At shorter distance a wider area is achieved by using the wide angle foam nozzle.

4.8 Activating the Roof Cleaner

1. Connect the high pressure washer (see machine user manual for further information).
2. Connect the high pressure hose to the machine and the Roof Cleaner.
3. Activate the trigger.

5 After using your Roof Cleaner

5.1 Cleaning Flush the cleaner with clean wa

ter by sucking from e.g. a water

bucket instead of the detergent bottle.

Flush until all detergent has

been removed from the system.

5.2 Storing Remove the detergent hose and

high pressure hose.

Reduce the length of the telescopic lance to a minimum
