    OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS Starting the engine DO NOT START THE ENGINE WITHOUT SUPPLYING WATER TO THE PUMP These instructions will be useful for the following sections and will be referred to as “start the engine”. Starting the engine with the electric starter: 1. Turn down the fuel valve (J on figure 6) to open.
  • Page 13: Cold Water Pressure Washing

    OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS Cold water pressure washing 1. Fill the fuel tanks (see “Filling the fuel tanks” previous section). 2. Remove the washing nozzle or weed killing tool at the wand outlet (O on figure 7). 3. Connect a water supply hose at the machine inlet (P on figure 7) and open the hose valve. The supply hose flow rate must be at least 4 gpm (15 l/min). 4. Turn the mode selection valve (Q on figure 7) on the side of the machine, to “Washer” position. 5. Depress the gun trigger (R on figure 8) until water flows out limpid and regularly. Release the gun trigger. Figure 7 6. Install a high pressure nozzle (S on figure 8) at the wand outlet (T on figure 9): Yellow = 15° angle, heavy dirt Green = 25° angle, medium dirt White = 40° angle, light dirt or rinse.
  • Page 14: Injecting Soap

    OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS Injecting soap 1. If the machine is running in hot water pressure washing mode, turn off the burner switch (W on figure 11) and keep water flowing until its temperature is less than 100°F (40°C). 2. Remove the high pressure nozzle at the wand outlet and replace it by the black soap nozzle (X on figure 12). 3. Insert the soap filter and hose (Y on figure 13) in a liquid soap container. 4. Rate of injected soap can be adjusted using the soap valve (Z on figure 13). 5. Depress the gun trigger. Water and soap mix will take 30 seconds to reach the nozzle and flow out. 6. Once soap application is finished, remove the soap nozzle and install a high pressure nozzle to rinse (yellow, green or white). Soap will flow out for 30 seconds and then stop. IMPORTANT: • If corrosive products have been injected, rinse injector by injecting water for a couple of minutes. Weed killing 1.

  • Page 18: Battery

    MAINTENANCE Battery DISCONNECTED BATTERY: When you receive your high pressure washer/weed killer, the battery has been disconnected to avoid long term discharging. INITIAL START-UP: Recharge the battery to full capacity before connecting it to the machine. Look for the positive wire (G on figure 5) between the engine and the heating coil. Take off the plastic insulator and keep it in the storage compartment for further use. Make sure that the now non-protected connector does not touch grounded metallic parts.
  • Page 19: Descaling The Heating Coil

    MAINTENANCE WARNING: • The battery contains sulphuric acid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or cloths. Wear rubber gloves and eyeglasses or visor when handling, filling or recharging the battery. If electrolyte splashes in the eyes or on the skin, rinse with a large quantity of pure water and call a physician immediately. • The battery produces gaseous hydrogen and oxygen while recharging. Keep away all sources of lighting. When checking electrolyte level, use a flashlight or permanent light for lighting. Do not turn on or turn off the lighting source near the battery. Do not smoke or produce sparks. CAUTION: • Always disconnect the battery before recharging.
