detergent at low pressure. Allow Cub Cadet  
detergent to remain on surface 1-3  
minutes. Do not allow detergent to dry on

necessary to move the spray nozzle even  
closer to the surface for greater dirt cutting  
action. To remove caked on mud from  
garbage cans, lawn mower blades, wheel  
barrels or other non-sensitive metal  
surfaces, you may want to use the Cub
