plug the washer into the power outlet (Fig. 9).

Operation

m

IMPORTANT! 

This pressure washer is equipped with 

a micro-switch sensitive to water flow. This Total Stop System 
(TSS) senses water flow in the pump. When the trigger is 
released, water stops flowing through the pump. The TSS then 
automatically turns the motor off to protect the pump from 
overheating.

1. 

Turn the water supply tap on completely.
