INSTALLATION & PREPARATION

POWER CORD CONNECTION:

1. Make certain the motor switch is in the "OFF" position.
2. Ensure electrical supply is 120Volt / 20 Amp / 60 Hertz. (See Figure B, Left)
3. Each time the GFCI is plugged into an outlet, test the GFCI according to the
instructions on the GFCI. Do not use the unit if the test fails!
4. Ensure the area between the pressure washer cord and the outlet is kept dry.
5. Insert the male plug into a grounded AC outlet. DO NOT use an adapter
OR remove the grounding plug!!

HEAT DUMP VALVE:

To ensure the water temperaure does not exceed acceptable levels, never allow
the pressure washer to operate in the bypass mode (with the unit running and the
trigger gun closed) for more than three minutes.
A "heat dump valve" has been added to this unit to protect the pump. It may begin
to open and release water if the water temperature in the pump has exceeded 180°F.
This will allow fresh, cool water to enter the system.

PRE-START INSPECTION PROCEDURES:

1. Before starting the unit, perform the following procedures:
a. Check the oil level in the pump.
b. Inspect the inlet water strainer. Clean or replace if necessary.
See "Water Supply", #2, pg. 11.
c. Check all hose connections to ensure they are securely tightened.
See "Water Supply", #3, pg. 11.
d. Inspect for system water leaks and oil leaks.
Be sure that all damaged parts are replaced and that the
mechanical problems are corrected prior to operation of the unit.
If service is needed, contact a Nilfisk-Advance Authorized Service
Center.
e. Inspect high pressure hose for kinking, cuts or leaks.
If a cut or leak is found, DO NOT USE HOSE!
