> DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE
(fig. )
IMPORTANT: This water cleaner is equipped
with the A.S.S. (Automatic Stop System), which
stops the machine during the bypass phase.
To start the water cleaner, it is therefore necessary
to set the switch on position “ON”; after that
press the pistol trigger: the Automatic Stop
System will start the machine and will stop it
automatically when the trigger is released. It
is advisable to put on the safety of the pistol
trigger whenever the machine is stopped, in
order to avoid unintentional starting.
• Any automatic start of the machine without
pressing the gun trigger is attributable to
air bubbles in the water or other similar
phenomena which do not imply the existence
of any defects in the machine.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended during
the standby for more than 5 minutes. Contrarily,
for the safety of the appliance it is necessary to
re-turn the switch into the OFF position.
• Please check that the coupling of the high
pressure hose with the appliance and the
gun supplied as standard equipments made
correctly, that is to say without any water leak.
If the appliance is equipped with a pressure
regulator :
• when the pressure is set to minimum the A.S.S.
may not trigger. Therefore, do not allow the
appliance to function in by-pass for more than
1 minute.
• do not act on the gun lever too frequently (this
may cause a malfunction).

trigger pressed, allowing the water to flow until
all the air has been expelled.
