and release all pressure. Remove the lance (18) and
press the gun trigger all the water accumulated comes
out;
5. Carefully wind the high-pressure hose so that it is not
bent or twisted. Damaged hoses are dangerous when the
system is under pressure.

press the gun trigger until there is a constant flow of
water coming out of the nozzle;
2. To prevent accidental triggering while you are not using
the machine, the gun is equipped with a safety system.
To activate, release the trigger (15) and engage the
safety lock between it and the gun body, by pulling it
down.
Use only detergents suitable for pressure washers.
Understand the instructions contained in the detergent.
Do not use dishwashing soap, as these contain salt.
Most car washing shampoos is a combination of detergent
and wax. These ones tend to be viscous. Viscosity increases
in lower temperatures.
When using detergents combined with wax or dishwashing
soap, they shall be diluted in warm water before using and
according to the recommended instructions on the
detergent.
A viscous detergent makes it difficult to flow out of the
tank and clogs the nozzle.
To operate the pressure washer with detergent, you must
perform the following steps:
1. Fit the black spray nozzle (4) to the lance connector (18);
2. Suction and mixing will occur automatically as soon as
the water comes out of the pump.
After using the machine with detergent, it should be
cleaned to remove all detergent waste.
1. Press the gun trigger until water comes out of the nozzle
(4).
