Operating with detergent

·

Fill the detergent tank.

·

Set the detergent metering valve to the desired
concentration.

·

In order to protect the environment, we
recommend that detergent is used sparingly.
Comply with the metering recommendation
on the detergent container label.

·

We offer an individual range of detergents
and preservatives and therefore guarantee
trouble-free operation. Please ask for advice,
or request our catalogue or detergent
information leaflets.

·

Only those detergents may be used which
have been authorized by the manufacturer of
the appliance.

·

Unsuitable detergents can damage the
appliance and the object which is to be cleaned.

·

We recommend the following cleaning
method:

Step 1: Loosening the dirt
Spray on detergent sparingly and allow to
react for 1–5 minutes.

Step 2: Removing the dirt
Spray off the dissolved dirt with the high-
pressure jet.

·

When you have finished working with
detergent, you should set the detergent
metering valve to “0” and rinse the appliance
thoroughly with the gun open for approx.
1 minute.

5.7

Interrupting operation

·

If you release the trigger of the hand-held
spray gun, the appliance switches off. If the
trigger is pulled again, the appliance switches
on again.

5.8

Switching off the appliance

  Warning!

·

Danger of scalding with hot water.
After operating it with hot water or steam the
unit must be cooled for at least two minutes by
operating it with cold water and its open
handgun.

·

Switch the appliance off and pull the electric
plug out of the socket.

·

Close the water intake.

·

Pull the gun trigger until the appliance is
depressurized.

·

Secure the gun trigger with the safety catch to
prevent the gun from accidentally opening.
