Each pair of spray arm nozzles 128 of each spray arm 122 faces away from the top wall 60 and opposite a respective rotational direction 130 of a pair of rotational directions 130 of the pair of spray arms 122. Each spray arm 122 is configured for selectively receiving the flow of the fluid from the respective spray arm branch line 116 and dispensing the flow of the fluid through each spray arm nozzle 128, thereby forcibly removing a debris from the support surface 48 and propelling each spray arm 122 to rotate about the associated spindle 124 in the respective rotational direction 130.


A manifold 132 is coupled to the outer surface 72 of the perimeter wall 62 of the spray deck 58 between the rim end 64 of the perimeter wall 62 and the second edge 82 of the top wall 60 of the spray deck 58. The manifold 132 has a set of four manifold nozzles 134 facing away from the perimeter wall 62 and the top wall 60. The manifold 132 is in fluid communication with the manifold 132 branch line 118 of the plurality of fluid branch lines 114 and is configured for selectively receiving the flow of the fluid from the manifold 132 branch line 118 and dispensing the flow of the fluid through each manifold nozzle 134, thereby forcibly removing the debris from the support surface 48.


In use, a user operates the vehicle 12 while sitting in the chair 20. The vehicle 12 may be operated with the spray deck 58 is lifted away from the support surface 48, thereby facilitating the maneuvering and storage of the vehicle 12 in smaller spaces than when the spray deck 58 is in the spraying position 84. To deploy the spray deck 58 in the spraying position 84, the user rotates the winch 96 in the second direction 102, thereby facilitating a gravitational force urging the second ends 54 of the pair of lift arms 50 in the deployment direction 106 and deploying the spray deck 58 onto the support surface 48.


The user may then clean the support surface 48 using the spray arms 122 by opening the fluid supply valve 112 and the pair of fluid branch valves 120 coupled to the pair of spray arm branch lines 116, thereby facilitating the pressure washer 110 to supply each nozzle on each spray arm 122 with the flow of the fluid, propelling each spray arm 122 in its respective rotational direction 130, and forcibly removing the debris from the support surface 48. To clean or rinse the support surface 48 using the manifold nozzles 134, the user closes the fluid branch valves 120 coupled to the pair of spray arm branch lines 116 and opens the fluid branch valve 120 coupled to the manifold 132 branch line 118, thereby facilitating the pressure washer 110 to supply each manifold nozzle 134 with the flow of the fluid and forcibly removing debris from the support surface 48.


To lift the spray deck 58 away from the support surface 48, the user rotates the winch 96 in the first direction 100, thereby pulling the second ends 54 of the pair of lift arms 50 in the lifting direction 104 and lifting the spray deck 58 away from the support surface 48.
