Abstract: The invention relates to a device for cleaning the surface of a tool for shaping the surface of a large-area fiber composite material body using a highly pressurized cleaning liquid, having a nozzle support which is held on a central bearing in a rotatable manner, at least one jet nozzle which is held in an arm of the nozzle support and out of which the highly pressurized cleaning liquid exits during operation, and a control unit for controlling the cleaning liquid pressure to be applied, wherein the nozzle support is surrounded by a housing which is provided with an opening towards the tool surface to be cleaned. The housing is connected to a suction device by means of which a housing interior equipped with the nozzle support can be suctioned.
