When the voltage supply is first connected,
the rotation direction of the brush must be
checked.
Activate the safety switch, which is
marked by an arrow in the above illus-
tration.
The brush must rotate in the direction of
the arrow.
If the rotational direction is wrong, get
an electrician to modify the electrical
connection.
The following systems do not include a
dosing pump in the standard scope of deliv-
ery:
–
1.286-235.0
–
1.286-245.0
–
1.286-345.0
–
1.286-435.0
–
1.286-445.0
Note:
The dosing volume is factory optimised.
Generally no reset is necessary.
CAUTION
Dosing pump can be damaged. Activate
the rotary knob only when the pump is run-
ning.
1 Rotary knob
With the dosing pump running, turn the
rotary knob to the desired dosage
amount.
The percentages listed on the dosing pump
refer to max. pump performance.
Remove all obstacles and objects in the
way of the washing station.
Create a water connection.
Create an electrical connection.
Check filling level of the detergent con-
tainer and refill if required.
DANGER
Risk of stumbling due to objects on the floor
or supply lines.
Prior to taking the system into opera-
tion, remove all objects from the wash-
ing station.
When using a system with a cable drag,
observe the proper routing of the supply
lines.
In emergencies, release the brush safe-
ty switch.
Close windows, doors and roof open-
ings.
Remove or fold in the side mirror.
Retract or remove antennas.
Remove or secure loose parts (tarp
ropes, etc.).
Close tarps and secure fasten them.
Park the vehicle centered at the wash-
ing station or underneath the cable
drag.
Adjust the system to the incline of the
surface to be cleaned by means of the
incline crank.
Position the system at the start the long
side of the vehicle.
Open the shutoff valve for a nozzle pipe
located in the direction of the washing
process
Turn on the main switch.
Switch on the dosing pump.
Hold the system with both hands on the
handle in washing direction.
CAUTION
Risk of damage. Do not change the rotation
direction while the brush is running.
Switch on the brush by pulling on the
safety switch of the brush on the re-
spective handle.
Brush submersion depth
Washing direction
Guide the system along the vehicle at
an even speed by pulling on the handle.
Note:
Always pull - never push the system.
The rotation direction of the brush is select-
ed to cause the least amount of power ef-
fort during pulling.
If the correct contact pressure is used, the
spacer rollers will touch the vehicle lightly.
Too much contact pressure will not improve
the cleaning effect.
If there are stationary, non-foldable mirrors,
the system must be pulled away from the
vehicle slightly.
Reposition the system at the corners of
the vehicle, readjust the incline if neces-
sary and continue the washing process.
CAUTION
Risk of damage to the supply lines due to
twisting. Change the washing direction
every time you come around the vehicle.
Once all sides of the vehicle have been
washed:
Switch off the dosing pump.
Switch the water supply to another noz-
zle pipe.
Go around the vehicle one more time in
the opposite direction for rinsing.
Pull the washing system away from the
vehicle
Release the brush safety switch.
Switch off the dosing pump.
Shut off water supply.
In case of longer operational breaks:
Turn the main switch to position “0”.
Remove the voltage from the supply
line if desired.
Check the rotation direction of the
brush.
