Care

Cleaning

After each use of the Jetter flush all the lines with clean water to remove any spray that could cause damage to the pipework if left for an extended amount of time. Wash down the Jetter to remove any overspray of chemicals, dirt and grime that has built up during use and transport. Check nozzles for build-up of grime and clean accordingly.

Storage
