Carry out a test run before operating the machine.
The following switch-on conditions must be met before the motor is
started:
-- The machine should be in a horizontal position (tilt switch).
-- The machine must be connected to a suitable water supply (at
least 2 bar pressure). Read the ”
Water connection
” section in the
chapter ”
Transport, Set-up and Connection
”.
-- The machine must be connected to the correct power supply.
Read the ”
Electrical connection
” section in the chapter ”
Transport,
set-up and connection
”.
-- The water filter must be clean (water deficiency monitor).
For the test run, first start the engine and then switch on the pump.
A few functions must now be checked with the machine running.
Note
Any defects found during these tests must be rectified immediately.
A fresh inspection is necessary after every repair. The machine may
only be put into operation once all the inspections described below
have been concluded satisfactorily.
The engine is switched on at the main switch and the star-delta
switch.
Your machine may also be fitted with an automatic star--delta switch,
depending on the model.
Caution
The delivery side must be fully open when the engine is started, i.e.
press the high-pressure gun trigger.
This fills the pump more quickly and avoids dry runs.
