Information on use of the appliance (fig.4)
Controls
• Starter device (H).
Set the starter switch on (ON/1) to:
a) Start the motor (in models without TSS device);
b) Set the motor ready to start (in models with TSS
device).
• 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.

Caution - Danger!
During operation the appliance must be positioned as shown
in fig. 4 on a sturdy, stable surface.
Start-up
1) Turn on the water supply tap fully.
2) Release the safety catch (D).
3) Depress the gun trigger for a few seconds and start up
the appliance using the starter device (ON/1).
Caution - Danger!
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.
TSS models - In TSS models with automatic delivery flow
cut-off system:
• When the gun trigger is released the dynamic pressure
automatically cuts out the motor (see fig.4);
• When the gun trigger is depressed the automatic drop in
pressure starts the motor and the pressure is restored
after a very slight delay;
• If the TSS is to function correctly all gun releasing and
depressing operations must be performed at intervals of
less than 4-5 seconds.
• On three-phase models for professional use, at first use
start the appliance for a very short time to check that the
motor is running in the correct direction. If the motor fan
is turning anti-clockwise, exchange two of the three
phase wires (L1, L2, L3) in the electrical plug.
• To prevent damage to the appliance, do not allow it to
operate dry and when running do not stop the water jet
for more than 10 minutes at a time (for models without
TSS device).
Stopping the appliance
1) Set the starter device switch on (OFF/0).
2) Depress the gun trigger and discharge the residual
pressure inside the hoses.
3) Engage the gun safety catch (D).
