DESCRIPTION
The TEX25 is a high quality Swiss made spotting gun designed for professional
garment and textile producers who require a reliable powerful hand held solution for
removing stains such as machine oil, pen, make up and the like.
The highly effective pulsating jet, powered by 60 Watts, helps dissolve stains without
the need for harsh chemicals. Instead, stains can be removed with KREA Swiss
Cleaner 580, a mild CFC free solvent which is gentle on materials and employees.
By turning the adjustable VARIA Nozzle lever, you can adjust the spray pattern from a
powerful thin jet to a wide softer mist pattern, thereby matching the cleaning power to
the material type; sharp jet for deep weave to wide mist for more delicate materials.
Similarly, the power setting and distance of the nozzle from the material can also be
used to vary the effect. The jet should never be brought so close to the material that
the fabric risks being damaged or displaced. To avoid unnecessary wetting of the
fabric, the jet should be directed smoothly and with accuracy. For large soiled areas,
clean in a circular motion, so that the pressure jet rinses the substance from the
outside to the inside.
• Only connect the power plug when the sprayer is OFF and never carry by the
power cord.
• Only to be used with cleaning fluids with a flash point above 21°C / 70°F.
• Never direct the spray jet towards people or animals as it can cause injury.
Keep the sprayer and accessories out of the reach of children.
• The sprayer must not be used in locations where explosive gases may occur or to
spray inflammable liquids (e.g. petrol or spirits). Ensure that there is adequate
ventilation when working in confined spaces.
• At no time should the electrical components be brought into contact with liquids of
any type. Recommended cleaning methods are explained below.
• Noise / vibration information: The A-weighted sound pressure level of the TEX25 is
measured according to EN 50 144 as being approximately 81dB(A). When used for
continuous periods, the use of ear protection is recommended as a standard safety
precaution. The typical hand-arm vibration is below 5.5 m/s².

The TEX25 gun should only be operated safely when the safety & operating
instructions have been read and are strictly adhered to.
FOR YOUR SAFETY

IMPORTANT! - Before turning on the TEX25:
•Please ensure that the container is at least 50% full. Do not use the TEX25
gun without material or spray until completely empty. This avoids creating
unnecessary noise & vibration and prevents splatter.
• Before starting, turn the power knob completely to the left. This is the maximum
power setting and after a few seconds will create sufficient suction to spray the
material. Adjust the power knob as required.
• Avoid shaking the gun or sharp movements as this will cause droplets.
Overview
It is important to understand that optimal stain removal requires flushing the dirt
through the material, therefore the back of the fabric must be free or absorbent. If
spraying through the material is not possible, spot removal cleaning can be carried out
by spraying across the surface. In this case always work with the soft, fine mist spray
setting.
Different types of yarn packages can generally be cleaned this way, even if the
soiled area is in the crease. Should it be necessary to clean carpets, structured fabrics,
mohair, velour or any napped fabric, the curve of the stained material area can be laid
over a round cushion or over the arm of the operator. In this way the stain can be
rinsed through the side of the material. For very sensitive fabrics and removal of ring
marks, the VARIA Nozzle fine mist setting should be selected.
Operating instructions for the TEX25 spotting gun
The Operating and Maintenance Instructions are provided as guidance only. Differing
characteristics of various types of woven and knitted materials may make it first
necessary to carry out a test on a remnant or on a hidden part of an article of clothing
in order to avoid damage to the material.

• Due to their nature and finish, woven and knitted fabrics are particularly susceptible
to the formation of ring marks. Before treating such materials it is recommended to
apply a thin layer of cleaning fluid using the fine mist setting. Working quickly
reduces the risk of ring marks becoming fixed in the material. The formation of ring
marks can be further minimised by, as soon as the stain has been removed,
spraying a wide mist pattern in a circular and uniform way from the damp to the dry
part of the fabric. The treated area should then look uniformly damp and without
patches.
• If the stain removal is being carried out on an ironing board or extraction table
using a damp fabric underlay, this material should be moved after treatment to
avoid the risk of dissolved stain residues being transferred back into the next
treated material.
• With stains such as molybdenum sulphide based oils, tallow, wax, ballpoint pen
ink, make-up, stamp pad ink and fruit juices, it may be necessary to apply a few
drops of an specialised solvent (K1-K4- see spotting chart) before the normal
aforementioned cleaning process. For the rinsing process, the fine mist spray
should be brought as close to the fabric as possible without causing any damage
(thread displacement), followed immediately by making circular movements at a
greater distance from the fabric from the wet to dry area. Repeat this process
once or twice. Never allow too much fluid to penetrate the fabric and always work
very quickly. Dry and if necessary, repeat the process.
• Stains caused by oil or grease, or those which have worked into the fabric over a
lengthy period should be pre-spotted by first applying a very thin layer of fluid using
the fine mist spray setting.
• Sedimentary spots, which have formed a crust on one side of the fabric, should be
cleaned from the reverse side. Where possible, the crust should first of all be
scraped off with the dull edge of a knife blade. The spray jet should be kept at a
right-angle to the material, in order to reduce danger of thread displacement.
• Spraying of dense fabrics, treated with moisture-repellant, should be carried out
when they are lying flat, and stretched out where possible. Treating when
suspended vertically risks fluid running downwards and away from the stained
area.
• Textile related fluids of a similar viscosity such as moth repellant and impregnating
agent can also be sprayed. However, such fluids are often corrosive, and for this
reason the TEX25 should be thoroughly cleaned immediately after use. It is
recommended to use a separate container for different types of fluid.
• The TEX25 can also be used to clean production machines such as screen
printing sieves, ring travellers, shuttle-boxes, loom reeds, needle beds, sewing
machines as well as general degreasing of and machines and motors.

Durch das Drehen der verstellbaren VARIA-Düse, können Sie je nach erforderlicher
Reinigungskraft das Spritzbild von einem leistungsfähigen dünnen Strahl hin zu einem
breiten weichen Spühnebel einstellen, der scharfe Strahl für tiefe Webarten bis hin zum
breien Nebel für empfindliche Materialien.
Die Sprüstrahlleistung und entsprechende Wirkung kann auch mittels des Abstandes der
Düse zum Material variiert warden. Der Strahl sollte niemals so dicht an das Material
gesetzt werden, dass das Gewebe beschädigt oder verschoben wird. Um eine unnötige
Benässung des Gewebes zu vermeiden, sollte der Strahl glatt und genau ausgerichtet
werden. Für großflächig Verschmutzungen reinigen Sie in einer kreisförmigen Bewegung,
so daß die Druckstrahl die Substanz von außen nach innen spült.
