If you desire a fan spray, turn the nozzle fully anticlockwise - for a high pressure
pencil jet, turn it fully clockwise.

In the event that you switch the machine OFF, but intend to continue with its use
after a few minutes or so, DO NOT depress the trigger, but set the safety latch to
prevent it from being accidentally pulled. This will ease and assist the subsequent
restarting of the motor as pressures will remain equalised on either side of the
pump, thereby reducing the load on the motor when restarting.
NEVER attempt to run the machine with water supply disconnected or turned off.
It is recommended that whenever possible, a screen or partition be erected
between the washer and the wash area, to prevent accidental spraying of the
machine. Any moisture entering the machine could cause serious damage.
WARNING
Ensure the operator is aware that when the trigger is pulled, water at high
pressure can cause the lance to kick - it should therefore be held firmly.
In addition, care must be taken to ensure that the nozzle is NOT aimed at
an area where the water jet will cause damage, i.e. away from people,
animals, windows - greenhouses etc., and be aware that splash back
could also cause damage if the jet is trained on a nearby wall etc.

Water pressure is regulated by turning the adjuster at the nozzle end of the lance,
(as shown by the arrows on the ferrule), ANTICLOCKWISE to INCREASE pressure
and CLOCKWISE to DECREASE, (looking from the handle end).
