2.2 Start up

This machine must only be operated by persons over 18 years.
(Danish At-instruction (At = Danish Working Environment Authority) D. 2.20 November 2006):
Young persons covered by compulsory education must not operate pressure equipment.
Young persons over 15 years not covered by compulsory education must, as a main rule, not operate pressure
equipment with a pressure over 7 MPa (70 bar).
However, young persons over 16 years not covered by compulsory education and working within agriculture and
horticulture are allowed to work with pressure equipment over 7 MPa (70 bar). The pressure equipment must only
be used for cleaning, painting, rust inhibiting or the like.
Young persons under 18 years must only be engaged with work 4 hours daily if wearing self-contained respiratory
protective equipment.
For prolonged use of high pressure equipment uses vibration dampening gloves like type TEGERA 9185
Before start:
Remove items or goods that may be damaged during high-pressure cleaning.
Use wheel chocks if the high-pressure cleaner is placed on a sloping surface.
The high-pressure cleaner must only be used on a ladder if it is a platform ladder with barriers. The
height to the platform must not be more than 3 m. The platform ladder must be designed in compliance
with the principles of EN 131 or with a similar safety level.
Connection of the high pressure hose and lance:
1. Connect one end of the high-pressure hose to the gun, the other end has to be connected to the
outlet of the pump. After that mount the lance to the gun.
2. Before use of the machine, inspect high pressure hose to make sure it is not damaged. In case of
replacement make sure that the new hose has at least the same specifications as the original one.
Technical specifications (max. working pressure, date of manufacturing, name of manufacturer) must
be marked on the outer sleeve of the hose.
Connection to the water supply
1. The maximum temperature of the inlet water must not exceed 60° C (140° F).
2. Connect the water supply to the INLET port by means of a reinforced hose (min. 15 bar/200
psi) with the internal diameter of not less than 19 mm (3/4")
3. Considering that the water flow decreases in accordance with the length of the hose,
make sure that the quantity of the water reaching the machine is at least 10 l/min.
Important:
Make sure that the machine is fed with clean water during use. Running the machine without water, or
with dirty, sandy water, or containing corrosive chemicals, causes serious damage to the machine itself.
Connection before start-up:
1. Now you can turn on the water.
2. Hold the gun in open position for venting.
3. Switch the machine on.
4. The pressure can be adjusted on the double nozzle pipe.
