machine (No. 5) and the other end should be connected to a suitable
water supply

• Ensure the Power Switch (No.2) is in the "OFF" position before
connecting the factory fitted Plug attached to the Mains Electric Lead
(No.10) into an earthed socket.
If you are using an extension cable, it should always be completely un-
wound from the cable drum and have a sufficient cross-sectional area.

disconnect the high pressure hose from the machine.
• Disconnect the water connection/hosepipe with coupling (No. 5)
from the machine and replace with a suction hose and filter (Part
No. 4.440-238) that can be purchased as an accessory.
• Allow the pressure washer to operate without the high pressure hose fit-
ted until water flows from the high pressure outlet without bubbles.
