1) Identification of the machine according to EU directives. ATTENTION: Check that your RAPID-VSC high pressure washer has been provided with these identification details, if they have not been provided please inform your local dealer immediately. Machines which have not been provided with these details MUST NOT BE USED, and should be considered anonymous and potentially dangerous.
INSTALLATION Attach the lance to the high pressure hose (1) and the other end to the output connection (2). Fit the sheath (B) in order to protect the hydraulic connection and to avoid the risk of scalding by contact. The high pressure pump is supplied already full of lubricating oil.
COLD WATER USE 1. Check that the warning light ( c ) is lit, indicating that there is electric current within the machine. 2. Open the water source tap (2), then start the motor and pump by pressing the appropriate switch (in) on the control board.

Practical Advice Avoid soaking with water the surface you then wish to treat with detergent because, in doing so, you can place a film of water over the area you wish to treat, resulting in poor cleaning results. Instead, whilst holding the nozzle pointing towards the ground, wait until the detergent exits the nozzle.
