Maintenance
m
CAUTION!
Before working on the portable spray
washer, switch off the unit and remove the battery from the
compartment.
Bleeding the Air
During normal use, air may get trapped in the hose, which
will cause the pressure to drop. Bleeding the air before using
will allow air to escape and discharge residual pressure in the
hose.
1. Make sure the water tank is filled with clean water.
2. With the water tank cap removed and spray gun pointing
into the water tank, squeeze the trigger and start the
machine (Fig. 13).
3. Wait for a few seconds until the water flow is steady.
The unit is ready for use.
