INFORMATION ON USE OF THE APPLIANCE (FIG.4)
7.1 Controls
- Starter device (
H
).
Set the starter switch on (ON/1) to:
a) start the motor (in models without AS device);
b) set the motor ready to start (in models with AS 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 applian-
ce.
If there is a pilot light on the starter device, it should go out.
- Water jet control lever (
I
).
Caution - Danger!
During operation the appliance must be positioned
as shown in fig. 4 on a sturdy, stable surface.
7.2 Start-up
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.
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 appli-
ance using the starter device (ON/1).
AS
models - In AS models with automatic delivery flow cut-off
system:
- When the gun trigger is
released
the dynamic pressure automati-
cally cuts out the motor (see fig.4);
- When the gun trigger is
depressed
the automatic drop in pres-
sure starts the motor and the pressure is restored after a very
slight delay;
- If the AS is to function correctly all gun
releasing
and
depress-
ing
operations must be performed at intervals of
less
than 4-5
seconds.
To prevent damage to the appliance, when running do not
stop the water jet for more than 10 minutes at a time.
7.3 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
).
7.4 Restarting
1) Release the safety catch (
D
).
2) Depress the gun trigger and discharge the residual air inside
the hoses.
3) Set the starter device on (ON/1).
7.5 Storage
1) Switch the appliance off (OFF/0).
2) Remove the plug from the socket.
3) Turn off the water supply tap.
4) Discharge the residual pressure from the gun until all the water
has come out of the nozzle.
5) Drain the detergent tank.
6) Engage the gun safety catch (D).
7.6 Refilling and using detergent
When using detergent, the adjustable nozzle must be set on
" " (on models with this feature).
Fill the tank with highly degradable detergent.
7.7 Recommended cleaning procedure
Dissolve dirt by applying the detergent mixed with water to the
surface while still dry.
When dealing with vertical surfaces work from the bottom upwards.
Leave the detergent to act for 1-2 minutes but do not allow the
surface to dry. Starting from the bottom, use the high pressure jet
at a minimum distance of 30 cm. Do not allow the rinse water to run
onto unwashed surfaces.

MAINTENANCE (FIG.5)
Any maintenance operations not covered by this chapter should be
carried out by an Authorized Sales and Service Centre.

2) Remove any dirt deposits from the nozzle hole using the tool
(
C1
).
8.2 Cleaning the filter
Clean the suction filter (
L
) and the detergent filter after every 50
hours of operation.
8.3 Unjamming the motor
(on models with this feature)
In case of lengthy stoppages, limescale sediments may cause the
motor to seize. To unjam the motor, turn the drive shaft with a
tool (
M
).
8.4 End-of-season storage
Treat the appliance with non-corrosive, non-toxic antifreeze before
storing it away for winter.
