6. Storage
• Make sure that the inlet filter (4a) for incoming water (3) and the nozzle are cleaned before putting the
pressure washer away. Store the pressure washer in a dry area out of the reach of children and others
who do not have the prerequisite knowledge to operate the machine.
• Disassemble the pressure hose and lance and store them with the pressure washer. Avoid storing the
pressure washer in temperatures under 5 ºC or over 40 ºC.
N.B.
Protect the washer against frost. Make sure that it is completely emptied before storing.
Warning!
Never run the pressure washer dry. The pump’s seals can be damaged.
• Remember that the pressure washer may still be under pressure even when turned off! Depressurise it by
pressing the trigger before you disconnect the hoses. Removing the pressure hose while pressurised can
be dangerous.
• New nozzles for the pressure washer can be bought from the distributor.
Warning!
Never look into the nozzle when it is attached to the washer.
7. Care and maintenance
Warning!
Turn off the pressure washer and pull the plug from the wall socket when servicing and adjusting it.
Regular cleaning of the inlet coupling (4), inlet filter (4a) and the spray nozzle are important for the proper opera-
tion of the pressure washer. The inlet filter (4a) should be removed and cleaned regularly to prevent sediments in
the water from damaging the pump and seals.
• Make sure the nozzle is open, carefully remove debris and build-up with the nozzle cleaning tool (5) and
rinse with clean water.
• Clean the inlet filter after use: Disconnect the garden hose, remove the filter with pliers, clean if required and
replace when finished.
• Protect the washer against frost, empty it completely* and remove the pressure hose. Place the pressure
washer in dry storage for the winter.
N.B. The guarantee is not valid if the machine is frost damaged
.
* Start the pump with the trigger pressed or with the pressure hose removed and let the pump run
for 30 seconds to completely empty the pump.
