Cleaning
• Keep your machine clean at all times
• Always allow all water to drain from the pump before storing
• The Lance Nozzle may get dirty or blocked over time which will effect
operation. Clean the lance nozzle using the Cleaning Pin (17). A garden
hose can also be used to clean the nozzle by back-flushing water
through the nozzle. Combining use of the pin and back-flushing should
enable the nozzle to be fully cleaned. The frequency of doing this will
depend on the water quality in your area with hard water areas requiring
more frequent cleaning. After use you can store the cleaning pin on the
Cleaning Pin Hook (21)
• Regularly check the Water Inlet Connector (24) filter to make sure it is
clear
