8 Using the L12
Once operational, the L12 is designed to be simple to use.
8.1 GREEN TOWER LIGHT (and use of trigger)
In normal weeding operation, the green tower light will be
illuminated when the water is of sufficient temperature.
Whenever the user presses the trigger after a release, the
green light must be checked to ensure it is on. This may take
a few seconds depending on the length of release.

8.2 BOILER SWITCH
When the boiler is on, the switch on the front panel
illuminates green.
The user can switch to using cold water (for cleaning with
the power lance), by turning this switch off at any point. To
cool the boiler and water emitted from the lance, keep the
trigger pressed and wait for up to 1 minute.
8.3 THERMOSTAT
The thermostat indicates the water temperature at the
outlet of the boiler, it can be switched from Celsius to
Fahrenheit.

The tachometer shows the RPM of the engine when the
engine is on, and the total hours of the engine when it is off.
8.5 PRESSURE GAUGE
The pressure gauge shows the pressure of the water in the
