Electrical Connection - Black & Decker PW18 Instruction Manual

set by the manufacturer, the thermostat valve
discharges the hot water and draws in an amount of
cold water equal to the amount of water discharged,
until the correct temperature is restored.
f Safety catch (Fig. D17A): prevents accidental spraying
of water.
INSTALLATION (Fig. B)
Assembly
Caution! All installation and assembly operations must
be performed with the appliance disconnected from the
mains power supply.
The assembly sequence is illustrated in Fig. B.
Assembling the rotating nozzle
(For models with this feature)
The rotating nozzle kit delivers greater washing power.
Use of the rotating nozzle may cause of reduction in
pressure of 25% compared to the pressure obtained with
the adjustable nozzle. However, the rotating nozzle kit
delivers greater washing power due to the rotation of the
water jet.

Electrical connection

Caution! Check that the electrical supply voltage and
frequency (V/Hz) correspond to those on the appliance
data plate (Fig. B5) The appliance should only be
connected to a mains power supply equipped with an
adequate earth connection and a d erential security
breaker (30mA) to cut off the electricity supply in the
instance of a short circuit.
Use of extension cables: Use cables featuring "IPX5"
protection level. The cross-section of the extension cable
should be proportionate to its length; the longer it is, the
greater its cross-section should be.
Water supply connection
Caution! Only clean or filtered water should be used for
intake. The delivery of the water intake tap should be equal
to that of pump capacity. Place the appliance as close to
the water supply system as possible.
Connection points:
Water outlet (OUTLET)
Water inlet with filter (INLET)
Connection to the mains water supply
The appliance can be connected directly to the mains
drinking water supply only if the supply hose is fitted with a
backflow preventer valve as per current regulations in force.
Make sure that the hose is at least Ø 13mm and that it is
reinforced.
ADJUSTMENT INFORMATION (Fig. C)
f Adjusting the spray nozzle (for models with this
feature) Water flow is adjusted by regulating the
nozzle (18). 3 in 1 lance: Fix Fan Nozzle for high
pressure cleaning, for the Rotopower Nozzle 60%
more power and for the Foam Nozzle for detergent
spraying.
f Adjusting the detergent (on models with this feature)
Detergent flow is adjusted using the regulator.
f Adjusting the detergent pressure set the adjustable
nozzle (18) on " " to deliver detergent at the correct
pressure (on models with this feature).
f Adjusting the pressure (on models with this feature)
The regulator (18) is used to adjust the working
pressure. The pressure is shown on the pressure
gauge (where fitted).
USE OF THE APPLIANCE (Fig. D)
Controls
Starter device (Fig. D)
Set the starter switch on (ON/I) to:
a. Start the motor (In models without TSS device);
b. Set the motor ready to start (In models with TSS device).
Note: If there is a pilot light on the starter device, it should
light up.
If the "Low/High" settings are available, use them as
follows:
Low: Low pressure washing
High: High pressure washing
Set the starter device switch on (OFF/0) to shut down the
appliance.
If there is a pilot light on the starter device, it should go out.
f Water jet control lever (Fig. D24).
Caution! During operation the appliance must be
positioned as shown in Fig. D on a sturdy, stable surface.
Start-up
1. Turn on the water supply tap fully.
2. Release the safety catch (Fig. DA).
3. Depress the gun trigger for a few seconds and start
up the appliance using the starter device (ON/I).
Caution! Before starting up the appliance check that
the water supply hose is connected properly; use of the
appliance without water will damage it; do not cover the
ventilation grilles when the appliance is in use.
