IMPORTANT: NEVER run the machine ‘off load’ for long periods, (greater than 1
minute), without pulling the trigger, as damage to the pump will eventually occur.
A fan or pencil spray is possible
by twisting the nozzle as shown
in the diagram.
Pump pressure is factory set
and cannot be adjusted. A
pressure of 100bar is sufficient
to blast off dirt and grime from
patios and brickwork with ease.
To reduce water pressure at the nozzle and to give a wider distribution of water for
rinsing etc., turn the nozzle to produce a fan spray
When you have finished with the machine you should shut down using the following
procedure:
1.
Switch OFF using the switch mounted on the rear panel of the machine.
2.
Disconnect from the mains electrical supply.
2.
Turn OFF the water supply at the mains.
3.
For safety, pull the trigger to relieve any pressure in the system.
4.
Disconnect from the water supply.
5.
Disconnect the inlet and high pressure hoses and allow to drain.
6.
If the detergent adapter has been used, rinse it thoroughly with clean water.
Store in a dry, frost free location, not exposed to the elements.
CHEMICAL CLEANING AGENTS
To improve cleaning qualities, it is possible to introduce chemical cleaning agents
(detergents) into the spray using the foam attachment. This is particularly useful
for washing cars, greasy engine parts, removing oil spots on concrete etc. Use
ONLY those detergents recommended for use with power washers, such as ‘TRAFFIC
FILM REMOVER’ which is a powerful low foaming agent for car cleaning, patio
cleaning etc., or ‘WASH & WAX’, both available from Machine Mart.
To prepare for detergent application, ensure the trigger safety latch is set to prevent
the trigger from being pulled accidentally.
Push the detergent attachment, firmly on to the end of the nozzle until you hear or
feel it lock into place.
With the container filled with detergent, screw it on to the detergent attachment
ensuring the plastic pickup tube is in place.
Twist the lance nozzle to select a fan spray which will provide better distribution of
the detergent. Release the trigger safety latch and pull the trigger to spray the
detergent on to the vehicle, patio etc., and allow it to work itself into the grime.
