Remove hooks or tie them up in a bag or net. Removing stains Stubborn stains may not be removed by just water and detergent. It is therefore advisable to treat them prior to washing. Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For dried stains, soak overnight in water with a special detergent then rub in the soap and water. Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain; treat several times. Dried grease stains: moisten with turpentine, lay the garment on a soft surface and dab the stain with the fingertips and a cotton cloth. Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a rust removing product used cold. Be careful with rust stains which are not recent since the cellulose structure will already have been damaged and the fabric tends to hole. [. . . ] After positioning the inlet hose, be sure to tighten the ring nut again to prevent leaks. Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4" thread. Always use the hose supplied with the appliance. If it is too short and you do not wish to move the tap, you will have to purchase a new, longer hose specially designed for this type of use. [. . . ]
