5.1 אײַנשטעלן/אויסלעשן און גיכקייט קאָנטראָל

  • The unit has two switches, one for each motor.
  • Flip one switch to activate a single motor for lower airflow (4.0 Peak HP).
  • Flip both switches to activate both motors for maximum airflow (8.0 Peak HP) and faster drying.
  • The unit also features two speeds, allowing you to adjust the airflow intensity.
  • The air produced by the dryer will warm up during operation, aiding in the drying process.

5.2 Drying Techniques

For best results, start drying from the top of the vehicle and work your way down. Use the powerful airflow to push water off surfaces, rather than just evaporating it.

  • Large Surfaces (Hood, Roof, Trunk): Use a wider nozzle or the standard blower nozzle to quickly clear water from large, flat panels.
  • Crevices and Tight Areas: Utilize the narrower or pointed attachments to blast water out of door jambs, mirror housings, grilles, emblems, and wheel crevices. This prevents water from dripping out later and causing streaks.
  • רעדער און טירעס: The powerful airflow is excellent for drying wheels and tires, preventing water spots on rims and sling from tire dressings.
