5.2 Preparations before use:
Caution: Turn off the high pressure cleaner and unplug the electrical cord when
servicing and adjusting the machine.
1. Check that the power switch is in the “0” position.
2. Connect the handle (2): Press it down from the upward position and secure it
with the screws included (see g. 1).
3. Connect the upper and lower holders for pistol grip/lance (16): Press the lower
one to the right and the upper one to the left to fasten (see g. 2).
4. Connect the high pressure hose (6) to the
pistol grip (5), tighten with a spanner.
5. To use the regular lance (7): Attach the
lance to the pistol grip (se g. 3).

ENGLISH
6. To use another attachment:
a. Attach the adapter (14) to the pistol grip (5) (see Illustration 3).
b. Attach one of the attachments (car wash brush, turbo lance, terrace
cleaner, or drain & pipe cleaner) to the adapter as follows:
Press the holder of the attachment into the bayonet connection on the
pistol grip (5) and turn clockwise until it locks. Do this before beginning to
use the high pressure cleaner and attachments.
Caution: Make sure that the attachment is secure in the lance or it may be
forcefully expelled from the lance.
7. Connect a garden hose (not included) to a water supply and to the connection
for incoming water (4). Use a threaded connection or a quick connection.
The connection for incoming water (4) is factory tted with a lter for removing
sand and other pollutants that may damage the pump vents.
8. Press the trigger and release any air until the water ows.
Caution: The temperature of the incoming water must not exceed 40°C. Let
the water run for a while before starting if the hose has been lying in the sun
and is warm. The high pressure cleaner must always be used in an upright/
vertical position. Never use it lying down.
Caution: Make sure there are no people or pets within the risk zone of 15 m
from the nozzle before assembly continues. The high pressure cleaner must be
used in an upright/vertical position; use the high pressure cleaner standing up.
9. Make sure that the garden hose is intact and fastened at both ends. Turn the
tap all the way on (or enough that the water supply is sufcient for the high
pressure cleaner.)
10. Connect the mains cable to a socket, press the pistol grip trigger, aim the
lance in a safe direction, and turn on the motor with the power switch (1).
If water is taken from a tank or similar without natural pressure, the pump and
inow of those must be lled with water before the pump is started. The tank must
be at a higher level than the high pressure cleaner. If the water is polluted or clou-
dy, an inow lter must be installed on the hose’s inow.
Attention: The recommended distance between the nozzle and surface to be
washed is approximately 30 cm. Shorter distances provide higher cleaning power
and may damage the surface being cleaned. Longer distances provide softer clea-
ning of fragile surfaces.

Do not place the connection cable on a pavement, cycle lane, etc, exposing it to
damage.
Caution: Do not use a shorter connection hose than 6 m (1/2 inch hose). The
hose absorbs any pressure surges in the water line and protects the high pressure
cleaner, making it work more softly.
Caution: When the water sprays out from the lance, a recoil effect occurs on the
lance. Therefore, make sure that you hold it steadily with both hands and that you
stand rmly.
Never aim the water jet at people or animals or against the high pressure cleaner
or any electrical equipment.
Use protective goggles, as water and particles may be kicked back when you aim
the water stream at an object.
Caution: Turn off the high pressure cleaner during a long pause in your work. Do
not leave the machine switched on without supervision. Activate the safety lock at
the trigger.
5.3 Adjustment of the nozzle
(The turbo lance cannot be adjusted)
Make sure that the high pressure cleaner is correctly assembled. Aim the lance at
the surface to be washed, press the trigger and turn on the motor with the power
switch (1). Set to narrow or wide beam by turning the nozzle.
