WARNING - FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, TURN
SWITCH OFF AND REMOVE THE PLUG FROM
THE POWER SUPPLY OUTLET BEFORE
MAINTAINING YOUR PRESSURE WASHER.
Lubrication -
Your pressure washer is supplied
as a sealed unit and does not require further
lubrication.
(Oil type - 15W40 NON-SYNTHETIC).
Water Filter -
Periodically check and clean the
water inlet filter
2
Fig.31 to avoid it becoming
blocked.
Long Storage -
Before a long period of storage,
always ensure the machine and hose are
completely empty of all fluids. Also clean the
water filter
2
Fig. 31. Failure to do so may
invalidate warranty.
If the pressure washer has been stored over a
long period of time, there is a possibility of
calcium build up. This may make instant starting
difficult.
To help rectify this problem turn the electric
pump unit using a screwdriver as shown in Fig.32
this will prevent the pump unit from drawing
excess power.
The pump may also leak when started, this will be
due to hardened seals. Once the pump warms up
the seals will soften and rectify this.
Motor -
The electric motor is fitted with a thermal
overload safety switch. The motor will stop if it
overheats. Wait 5-10 minutes before starting the
pump again and identify the cause of the
problem.
Important Note:
The upright position is for
transportation and storage only.
