2. Before bring in use
For each start up all substantial parts of the high pressure cleaner must be checked by taking them in consideration
like for example: is the lance joint still stuck firmly, check high pressure hoses and electric wiring on damages. Check,
before plugging the plug in the socket, if the electric indications on the name blade are suitable with the values of the
main supply (for example: electric tension,...).
Operating the machine. Rinse the hoses, gun and lance minimum 1 minute with clean water.
(Aim the gun in the free space). Check if of the object to clean can come dangerous goods like e.g. asbestos and oil
loose and can pollute the environment. Persuade yourself of the safety regulations from previous chapter.
Leave the main switch on stand 0: OFF.
2.1. Accomplish water supply and water outlet
2.1.1. Accomplish water supply
The water supply pipe can be connected (towards circumstances) on their own water supplies (under pres-
sure) or on a drinking water supply with a water barge. When the machine is connected to the drinking water
supply, the existing regulations about that must be observed (EN 1717).
Water supply under pressure:
Maximum hose length 50 m (160 ft), minimum hose diameter (inside) 12.7 mm (1/2”).
Check the water pressure using a water meter.
Water supply by units with HT pumps:
When the unit have a HT pump one must place a pre- pressure pump.
2.1.2. Carry away water
Check that all water outlets have been correctly connected on the sewerage.
Take the necessary measures so that the effluent is pure enough to drain.
2.1.3. Anti- legionella bacterium measure
If the machine has stood still some time, the water in the machine must be drained above an evacuation.
Stationary water that between 20 - 55°C warm is can cause the legionella bacterium.
- Clean therefore yearly piping and tanks.
- Remove possible sediment.
- Rinse periodically.
2.2. Filling the fuel tank
The cleaner will be delivered with empty fuel tank, fill the tank with the right fuel before the first use.
When the fuel tank is empty, the fuel pump runs dry and these become defective!
Avoid mess of fuel, certainly on warm machine parts.
Respect the fill capacity of the fuel tank. Fill the tank with gas/petrol.
Fill the tank of the diesel unit with light fuel oil or diesel oil (DIN 51 603).
Don’t use unsuitable fuel! See technical data for tank volume and fuel
type
.
At temperatures under 8°C the fuel starts coagulate (paraffin dissidence).
As a result, difficulties can arise at starting the diesel engine and/or burner.
DiBO advise to add an coagulation point - or flow improvement during the cold period (winter months) to the
fuel. As an alternative “winter diesel” can be refuelled in a filling station.
