Connection to electrical supply:
1. Make sure that the main voltage is the same as shown on the identification label on the machine.
2. Make sure that the plug complies with your local regulations, and that it is provided with ground connection.
3. The power outlet must be protected by a residual circuit breaker having a sensitivity of less than 30 amp.
4. Do not connect other appliances to the same outlet.
5. Insert the plug after making sure that the switch on the machine is in the OFF position.
WARNING: In case of power failure during operation, turn the machine OFF for safety reasons
.
Starting the machine:
1. Turn on the water.
2. Hold the gun in the open position to allow the air to escape from the hose.
3. Switch on the unit.
4. At this point adjust the machine to your pressure requirement and you are ready to begin.
CHECKING AND CHANGING THE OIL
-
The level of the oil must be checked periodically.
- The first important oil change must be carried out after the first 20 hours of work and successively every 150 hours.
- In any case we suggest an oil change at least once a year.
- Oil type: Series 100 GP-oil (30 wt. non-detergent)
- Capacity: 11 oz.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
1.
Keep the machine out of the reach of children.
2.
High pressure water jets are potentially dangerous if used incorrectly. In particular, the jet must not be directed
against persons or animals, electrical equipment or the machine itself.
DO NOT USE
the machine when persons and/or animals are within the reach of the jet.
3.
The user must operate the machine in safe conditions and situations avoiding any situations of potential danger to
himself or other persons. In particular the user will have to:
- Avoid operating in unstable balance conditions.
- Remember that the high pressure jet generates a recoil when the gun is opened. The force of this recoil is less
than 4.5 pound-force.
- Use adequate protective clothing.
- Wear protective goggles and anti-slip rubber shoes.
- Avoid contaminating the environment with polluting, toxic or harmful substances.
4.
This machine is build in compliance with the requirements of the current safety regulations. The use of electrical
appliances involves the respect of some basic rules:

- All operations of inspection, maintenance or repair must be made by qualified personnel only. ALWAYS
disconnect the plug before proceeding to any of the above mentioned operations.
5.
Do not pull power cord to unplug. Do not pull high pressure hose to move unit.
6.
Before using the machine, inspect power cord to make sure it is not damaged. If it is damaged, have it replaced
by qualified personnel. Replace power cord only with a cable of the same type as the original, this can be
identified by the marking on the outer sleeve. Do not damage or effect risky repair on power cord.
7.
Before using the machine, inspect high pressure hose to make sure it is not damaged. In case of replacement
make sure the new hose has at least the same specifications as the original. Technical specifications (maximum
working pressure, date of manufacture, name of manufacturer) must be marked on the outer sleeve of hose.
