Always check that all parts and attachments are
secure, and that hoses are not kinked or

Always wear appropriate personal protective
equipment. Use of this machine requires safety
goggles and waterproof clothing.
Always use an RCD when connecting a pressure
washer to the mains with a tripping current no more
than 30mA and a delay in operating of no more
than 30ms.
Make sure any mains connection points are out of
reach of the pressure washer water spray, or any
water that may collect on a surface around where
you are spraying.
Only use a mains extension cable suitable for
outdoor use, and capable of carrying the required
current for this product. The extension cable must
be protected against water ingress with water-tight
connections where it connects to the pressure
washer mains cable.
This product must be earthed and any extension
cables used must have an earth connection
Always use the pressure washer vertically and
make sure it is used on a flat, level surface.
BEFORE USE
OPERATION
WARNING.
Before connecting to the
mains power supply please ensure that
the ON / OFF switch is in the OFF
position and the water supply is
connected and is turned on. Running the
pressure washer without any water
supplied to it will damage the pump.
SWITCHING ON
Connect the pressure washer mains lead to the
mains electricity supply via a residual current
device (RCD) (not supplied). Start the power
washer by turning the On/Off dial to the ON (I)
position, Fig 11.
Note:
During normal operation the pressure
washer pump motor will only start when the trigger
is squeezed and will stop when the trigger is
released.
TRIGGER GUN SAFETY LOCK
In order to prevent accidental operation of the
trigger gun, the gun is fitted with a safety lock. To
engage the safety lock, push the safety lock lever
upwards, Fig 12, until it locks into place. To disable
the safety lock, release the trigger and push the
lever downwards.
Note:
The motor only runs when the trigger is
operated. When the pressure washer is not in use,
we recommend that you lock the gun using the
trigger lock for safety reasons. Switch the unit OFF
when not in use for extended periods of time and
expel pressurised water in the unit by operating the
trigger gun while the unit is in the OFF position.
