3.1
Transport and assembly
1. The safest way to lift the ma-
chine is to use a fork-lift truck
The arrows in the illustration
indicate the best places to po-
sition the fork.
2. It is also possible to lift the ma-
chine by hand from the pallet.
Due to the weight this work
should be done by at least
three persons.
CAUTION!
Do not hold the plastic tank to lift
the machine as it could become
detached from the frame.
The best places to hold the ma-
chine are
– on the handle
– on the frame between the front
wheels and the guide rollers.
Every fuel-burning appliance, such
as pressure washers, depends
upon a proper mix of fuel and air
(by weight) for proper combustion.
Therefore some adjustment of the
air supply to the burner may be nec-
essary to take account of altitude
and the resulting air pressure. This
is true whether your fuel is ‘Natural
gas’, Propane or Diesel.
Your Nilfisk hot water pressure
washer was thoroughly tested and
adjusted for optimum performance
before it left our factory. The factory
is located at approximately 120m
(390 ft) above sea level, and the
combustion settin
gs are optimal for
that elevation.
If your location is higher than
1200m (3900 ft) above sea level,
your burner may require re-
adjustment for proper perfor-
mance and best fuel economy.
Contact your Dealer or Nil
fi
sk
for assistance.
