 Fix the push-handle using the enclosed
screws and tool.
 Fasten the high pressure hose to the
high pressure connection.
In devices without hose drum:
 Insert the crank in the hose drum shaft
and lock it in.
 Before rolling up, stretch out the high
pressure hose.
 Wind the high pressure hose in uniform
layers on the hose drum by rotating the
crank. Select the rotation direction in
such a way that the high pressure hose
does not get bent.
