the cleaner in a heated room during
the winter or empty it or rinse it
thoroughly with antifreeze.
„
Empty the cleaner

sure hose from the cleaner.

pump and lines have emptied (max.

Putting in antifreeze

pumping antifreeze through the cleaner
is to be recommended. By this means
also you obtain a sure protection against
corrosion.
