The backflow prevention devices should be
appropriate to fluid categories and comply
with the requirement to avoid back siphonage
according to EN 60335-2-79: 2009.
To connect the garden hose to the pressure washer:
■ Uncoil the garden hose.
NOTE:
There must be a minimum of 3 metres of
unrestricted garden hose between the pressure washer
intake and the garden tap.
■ With the garden tap turned completely off, attach
the end of the garden hose to the coupler on the
pressure washer water intake. Tighten by hand.
■ Water that has flown through backflow preventers is
considered to be non-potable.
OPERATION
Applications
This pressure washer can be used for the purposes listed
below:
■ Removing dirt and mould from decks, cement patios,
and walls.
■ Cleaning cars, boats, motorcycles, outdoor furniture
and barbeques.
ADDING DETERGENT TO THE PRESSURE WASHER
See Figure 7
Use only detergents designed for pressure washers;
household detergents, acids, alkalines, bleaches,
solvents, flammable material, or industrial grade solutions
can damage the pump. Many detergents may require
mixing prior to use.
Prepare cleaning solution as instructed on the solution
bottle.
■ Disconnect pressure washer from power supply.
■ Place pressure washer upright on a flat surface.
■ Remove cap from detergent tank.
■ Pour detergent into tank until it reaches the
maximum fill level located on the unit.
NOTE:
Use a funnel, if needed, to prevent accidental
spilling of the detergent outside the tank. If any detergent
is spilled during the filling process, make sure the unit is
cleaned and dried before proceeding.
■ Reinstall cap.
STARTING AND STOPPING THE PRESSURE
WASHER
See Figure 8
CAUTION:
Do not run the pump without the water supply
connected and turned on.
■ Connect the garden hose.
■ Turn the garden hose on then squeeze the high
pressure trigger to relieve air pressure. Once a
steady stream of water appears, release the trigger.
■ After ensuring the switch is in the OFF position,
connect the pressure washer to the power supply.
■ Press
ON ( I )
on the switch to start the motor.
■ To stop the motor, release the trigger and press
OFF
( O )
on the switch.
USING THE GUN/LANCE
For the most effective cleaning, the spray nozzle should
be between 20cm and 60cm from the surface to be
cleaned. If the spray is too close it can damage the
cleaning surface.
NOTE:
For greater control and safety, keep both hands
on the unit at all times.
Several different methods of cleaning are available.
Choose the method best suited for your cleaning project.
NOTE:
Any cleaning or rinsing method using high
pressure spray requires that the on/off switch be in the
ON position. For methods using low pressure only, the
switch may be in either the ON or OFF position.
USING THE NOZZLES
See Figure 10
Before starting any cleaning job, determine the best
nozzle for the job. The 25˚ nozzle is for general purpose
or large surfaces.
The 0˚ nozzle delivers a fine, powerful
jet used for spot cleaning or high-to-reach areas.
Turbo nozzle rotates at high speed to increase intensity
and cleaning area of the spray, removing mud and clay
from hard surfaces like concrete, brick, or stone.
CAUTION
:
NEVER change nozzles without engaging the
lock out on the gun and NEVER point the lance
at your face or at others. The Quick Connect
collar contains small springs that could eject
the nozzle with some force. Failure to heed this
may cause personal injury.
Using the Quick Connect collar, changing nozzles is
easy.
To connect a nozzle to the lance:
n
Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water
supply. Pull trigger to release water pressure.
n
Engage the lock out on the gun by pulling down on
the lock out until it clicks into the slot.
n
Push the nozzle into the Quick Connect collar until it
clicks in place and is secured properly.
