Using detergent. Use only detergents approved for use in pressure washers.
5.6.1
Remove the nozzle that is attached to the gun and attach the soap dispenser.
5.6.2
Remove the bottle and check that the tube is not blocked.
5.6.3
Fill with detergent suitable for use with a pressure washer and screw on the bottle. The detergent will automatically be mixed with the
water and discharged through the nozzle.
5.6.4
Dirt is dissolved by applying detergent to the dry surface. On vertical surfaces, work from the bottom upwards.
5.6.5
Leave the detergent to act for 1-2 minutes, but DO NOT allow the surface to dry out.
5.6.6
To wash down select the Variable fan Nozzle set on the wide fan setting.
5.6.7
When you have finished the soap application, remove the bottle and flush clean water through the tube until it is thoroughly cleaned.
Note: Failure to clean properly will cause the injection system to become clogged and inoperable.
5.7
When washing is completed.
5.7.1
Switch the power supply off by pressing the button marked 'O'.
5.7.2
Turn off the water supply tap.
5.7.3
Activate the trigger to discharge residual pressure until no more water comes out of the nozzle.
5.7.4
Engage the trigger safety catch, unplug the machine from the electrical mains power supply and disconnect from the water supply.
5.7.5
Store the washer away with the high pressure hose wound around the cable reel, inset the threaded coupling end of the hose into the
cut-out in the reel. While holding the hose firmly in the hole turn the reel in the clock-wise direction, carefully guide the hose around
the reel until completely wound.
5.7.6
Wipe the machine clean and dry and store in a clean, safe, dry, childproof location.
NOTE: a) DO NOT leave motor switched on for more than 15 minutes without operating trigger.
b) If the water pressure drops (i.e. someone else using the same water supply), the washer will not operate correctly. Immediately
switch off the motor and wait until the pressure is restored.
c) Should the motor stop and fail to restart, the built in thermal cut-out may have tripped. Check to ensure that the washer is
connected correctly to electrical and water supplies (also see Section 6 Troubleshooting). Wait 3 minutes for the cut-out to reset
and re-start the motor. If the motor continues to cut out contact your authorised service agent.
d) If storing the washer for a long period during winter, operate the washer with a non-corrosive, non-toxic anti-freeze before storage.
Store detergents according to instructions on the container label.
6. MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Ensure the pressure washer is switched off and unplugged from the mains electrical power supply and turned off at the
mains water tap before performing any maintenance tasks.
6.1
Check, clean or renew the inlet filter (which is fitted inside the hose connector, see fig.1.4) after every 50 hours of use.
6.2
Ensure that both nozzles are kept clean and free of debris.
6.3
Check unit, gun, nozzle, hose, connections and cables for damage. Immediately replace or repair with genuine parts.
6.4
Storage. Do not store the unit in premises subject to freezing conditions. If this cannot be guaranteed then the unit should have a
glycol based antifreeze run through it. Immerse the water supply pipe into a container of antifreeze. Immerse the gun/lance into the
same container (without the nozzle attached). Hold the gun trigger open and start the unit. The antifreeze will be drawn into the unit by
suction. When an even, bubble free flow is obtained switch the unit off.
