5.4.
Operating the machine.
5.4.1. Hold the spray gun firmly to counteract the recoil caused by the high pressure of the water. Before switching on ensure that the lance
is not directed at people, objects or animals prior to being directed at the object to be cleaned.
5.4.2. It is recommended that the trigger is depressed before switching on the unit before every use. This reduces the back pressure and
amperage draw which prevents fuses blowing.
5.4.3. Switch the machine on by turning the switch to the 'On' position. Release the handle safety catch (fig.3'B'). Point the
lance at the object to be cleaned and fully depress the trigger. When the trigger is released the motor will automatically switch off.
5.5.
Adjusting spray pattern.
5.5.1. The fan nozzle can be adjusted from pencil point to fan jet by moving the grip forwards or backwards.
5.5.2. The fan nozzle can be continuously varied by rotating the body of the nozzle as indicated in fig.5.
Caution! The pencil point setting is very aggressive. It is recommended that for most cleaning applications, a twenty degree spray
angle is used to avoid damage to the surface being sprayed.
Note: The pressure of the spray on the surface you are cleaning increases as you move the nozzle closer to the surface.
5.5.3. For the high pressure Turbo spray fit the turbo nozzle. This nozzle is intended for maximum cleaning affect.
5.6.
Using detergent.
Use only detergents approved for use in pressure washers.
5.6.1. Remove the lance from the gun and replace with the detergent dispenser (fig.4).
5.6.2. Fill the detergent bottle with detergent suitable for use with a pressure washer. The detergent will automatically be mixed with the
water and discharged through the nozzle. NOTE: Detergent will only be drawn into the spray if the fan nozzle is used in the fan
(low pressure) setting.(fig.5). Dirt is dissolved by applying detergent to the dry surface. On vertical surfaces, work from the bottom
upwards.
5.6.3. Leave the detergent to act for 1-2 minutes, but DO NOT allow the surface to dry out.
5.6.4. To wash down select the variable spray jet nozzle set on the wide fan setting (fig.5).
5.6.5. When you have finished the soap application, remove the bottle and flush clean water through the tube until it is cleaned thoroughly.
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 turning switch to 'Off' position.
5.7.2. Turn off the water supply tap.
5.7.3. Discharge residual pressure by pressing the trigger until no more water comes out of the nozzle.
WARNING! Failure to discharge pressure could result in personal injury.
5.7.4. Disconnect the inlet and high pressure outlet hoses.
5.7.5. 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 (e.g. someone else using the same water supply), the washer will not operate correctly.
Immediately switch the motor off and wait until the pressure is restored.
