Troubleshooting
• Disconnect the unit from the electrical power supply before carrying out maintenance on the machine or when checking that
its parts are in proper working order.
•
The hose must be connected and the water turned on before operating your unit. Failure to do so will damage the pump
motor and void your warranty.
•
Total Stop System (TSS) – The motor will shut OFF and remain in standby mode during periods of inactivity, or as soon as the
unit is pressurized. THIS IS NORMAL. Simply squeeze the trigger to restart the pump motor.
• To avoid unnecessary hassles, consult the following table before contacting customer service with any mechanical issues.
