CARE AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Ensure the plug is removed from the socket before carrying out
any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
After each use
If cleaning agents have been used, thoroughly clean the detergent lance
and bottle with clean water.
Storage
If there is a danger of freezing, insert the inlet and outlet hoses into a
bucket of antifreeze as shown in Fig.9. Start the machine and allow the
antifreeze to circulate. After a short time, stop the machine and store
with the antifreeze still within the pump body.
NOTE:
If you experience dif ficulty in
starting the motor following a long
period of storage, it is possible that
the seals within the pump have
dried out and are gripping the
pistons. This problem may be
alleviated by storing the machine
with antifreeze within the pump
body, as described above.
If the seals are stuck however,
contact your Clarke dealer for
advice.
Water input filter
Located behind the water inlet, this filter should be removed for cleaning
after every 10 hours of use (or less if water is contaminated).
Remove the filter by unscrewing the input hose connection and
withdrawing the filter element.
Clean the element with fresh water. To replace, reverse the above
procedure ensuring that all seals are in place.
