CARE AND MAINTENANCE 

WARNING:

  Ensure the plug is removed from socket before carrying out any maintenance, 

adjustment or servicing. 

 

1. 

Storage

:  Store your Aussie-Eco Clean blaster in an upright position.  If there is a danger of 

freezing have your local authorised Aussie Pumps Service Agent inspect unit before next 
operation. 

 
2. 

Long Storage

:  If you plan to store your machine for a long period it 

is recommended that you run antifreeze through the machine before 
storage.  If fan seizes after long storage period, turn nut which holds 
in fan to loosen fan assembly.  (This must be done while power is 
turned off.)  

(Refer Fig.10.)

 

 
3. 

Water Inlet Filter:

  Located in the garden hose connector, this mesh filter should be 

cleaned after a minimum of five hours use. Also ensure that nothing is blocking the filter as 
this will restrict water flow going to your pump which can be harmful to your machine. 

 

MAINTAIN YOUR DOMESTIC PRESSURE CLEANER 

A small investment in time maintaining your hobby or professional cleaner will result in long 
trouble-free use. 

DAILY OPERATIONAL CHECK LIST 

1.  Check for gun or hose leaks. 
2.  Check for pump oil leaks. 
3.  Check nozzle for wear. 
4.  Check water filter and clean if necessary.  (Water filter is located in water inlet mains 

connection.) 

5.  If unit is used with detergent injector system, check to make sure detergent injector system 

is flushed with clean water after use. 

DOMESTIC MACHINE QUARTERLY SERVICE 

1.  All of the above in Daily Check plus the following: 
2.  Change pump oil, use non-foaming, non-detergent SAE30-100 Grade oil. 
3.  Check unloader and Total Stop for adjustment or leaks. 
4.  Check high pressure hose for general condition and leaks (replace kinked hoses). 
5.  Replace nozzle head on lance if worn. 
 

ATTENTION USERS:  If you are not confident about carrying out routine service, take 
your machine to an authorised Australian Pump Industries’ Service Agent for their 
expert attention.  Oil change procedures are available through Australian Pump 
Industries or an Australian Pump Industries dealer. 

 

REGULAR SERVICING 

 

Regular servicing pays.  Both hobby and professional machines need regular servicing.  Take 
your machine to an authorised Aussie Pumps Service Agent at regular intervals, depending on 
the amount of use.  Hobby machines should be serviced annually.  Professional machines, 
used in commercial applications, should be serviced quarterly by an authorised Aussie Pumps 
Service Agent.  All pumps require an oil change by an authorised Aussie Pumps Service Agent 
after every 30 hours of use or 3 monthly intervals, whichever occurs first.  Recommended oil is 
SAE30 non-foaming hydraulic oil.
