MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning, turn the pressure washer off, and disconnect from the mains
supply. The unit may then be cleaned using a damp cloth with a drop of washing-
up liquid to remove any dust or dirt from the case. Do no use stronger detergents
or solvents as these may damage the case finish.
From time to time dirt or other objects may become trapped in the nozzle. To clean
you should turn off the unit and release any
pressure in the lance. Rotate the nozzle to
the narrow stream setting and using the
supplied Tip Cleaner you can slide back and
forth until the debris has been dislodged.
