just clean frames and sill first then scrub the window and then rinse off!
first cleans i do on setting 3 and then after on 2!
very easy aslong as you rinse well,get the frames immaculate on first clean you dont have to worry so much next cleans!

Using a varistream I had it on 5 for all first cleans frames etc.  , second time round i have it on 2 and don't touch the frames straight onto glass, thats how i saved time, got 300 customers not loss 1 . ;D

I have my pump set pretty high, after a time you will find your ideal speed.
the slower the rate the slower you will rinse.
I use to have it set at 1litre per minute, then I upped it to 2 1/2 litres per minute and I am a lot faster.
