It is advisable, periodically, to visually inspect the
burner. Check air inlet to make sure it is not clogged or
blocked. Wipe off any oil spills and keep this equipment
clean and dry.
The flow of combustion and ventilating air to the burner
must not be blocked or obstructed in any manner.
The area around the Landa washer should be kept
clean and free of combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable vapors and liquids.
Unloader Valves
WARNING: The unloader valve on this pressure
washer has been factory set and sealed and is a
field nonadjustable part. Tampering with the
factory setting may cause personal injury and/or
property damage, and will void the manufacturer
warranty.
AVERTISSEMENT: La soupape de décompression
sur cette laveuse à pression a été réglée en usine,
puis scellée, et est une pièce non réglable. L'altéra-
tion du paramètre de l'usine pourrait causer des
lésions corporelles et/ou des dommages à la
propriété, et annulera la garantie du fabricant.
Winterizing Procedure
Damage due to freezing is not covered by warranty.
Adhere to the following cold weather procedures
whenever the washer must be stored or operated
outdoors under freezing conditions.
During winter months, when temperatures drop below
32°F, protecting your machine against freezing is
necessary. Store the machine in a heated room. If this
is not possible then mix a 50/50 solution of antifreeze
and water in the float tank. Turn the engine on to siphon
the antifreeze mixture through the machine. If
compressed air is available, an air fitting can be
screwed into the float tank by removing the float tank
strainer and fitting. Inject the compressed air. Water will
be blown out of the machine when the trigger on the
spray gun is opened.
High Limit Hot Water Thermostat
For safety, each machine is equipped with a tempera-
ture sensitive high limit control switch. In the event that
the water should exceed its operating temperature, the
high limit control will turn the burner off until the water
cools then automatically reset itself. The thermostat
sensor is located on the discharge side of the heating
coil. The thermostat control dial is located on the
control panel.
Landa SLT/SLX Gas Operator's Manual 8.914-002.0 - AR
Pumps
Use only SAE 10W-40 weight non-foaming oil. Change
oil after first 50 hours of use. Thereafter, change oil
every year or at 500 hour intervals. Oil level should be
checked through use of dipstick found on top of pump,
or the red dot visible through the oil gauge window. Oil
should be maintained at that level.
Cleaning of Coils
In alkaline water areas, lime deposits can accumulate
rapidly inside the heating coil. This growth is increased
by the extreme heat build up in the coil. The best
prevention for liming conditions is to use high quality
cleaning chemicals. In areas where alkaline water is an
extreme problem, periodic use of Landa Coil Descaler
(part #8.914-296.0) will remove lime and other deposits
before coil becomes plugged.
Periodic descaling of the heating coil is recommended
so please consult your local Landa Dealer for instruc-
tions.
Removal of Soot and Heating Coil
In the heating process, fuel residue in the form of soot
deposits may develop on the heating coil pipe and
block air flow which will affect burner combustion.
When soot has been detected on visual observation,
the soot on the coil must be washed off after following
the coil removal steps (See Coil Removal).
Pressure Relief Valve
Each machine is equipped with a relief valve to relieve
pressure in the system when higher than normal
operating pressures are encountered or if the unloader
valve should fail. Unusually high pressures come from
an object plugging the spray nozzle. If operating
pressure is found to be normal and the relief valve
continues to leak, repair or replace valve.
CAUTION: This valve must be opened each year to
check operation.
ATTTENTION: Cette soupape doit être ouverte
chaque année pour vérifier le fonctionnement.
Rupture Disk
If pressure from pump or thermal expansion should
exceed safe limits, the rupture disk will burst allowing
high pressure to be discharged through hose to ground.
When disk ruptures it will need to be replaced.he
Rupture Disk should be replaced every two years.
