d) Connect to power supply.
e) Set the power switch at the position «ON/I».(Fig.3)
f) Push the trigger and start the washer.
16

WARNING!Check that the supply voltage and frequency correspond to those specified on the
appliance data plate.The appliance should only be connected to a main power supply via a security breaker
(Max.30mA) to cut off the electricity supply in the instance of a short circuit.
5.2 STOPPING THE WASHER
WARNING! ALWAYS turn off the unit’s motor BEFORE turning off the unit’s water supply.
Serious damage could occur to the motor if the unit is run without water.
a) Release the trigger, the motor will stop operation.

6. INFORMATION FOR USAGE
6.1 THE SAFETY BUTTON OF GUN
The operator need press the unlock button and then actuate the trigger to do the spray operation.When you
release the trigger, it can return to the off position automatically. When not using the pressure cleaner, press
the lock button to keep from accidentally engaging the high pressure spray.
6.2 HOLD THE GUN
Whenever you use the high pressure washer , we suggest you grip the in the right position,with one hand on
the handle and the other on the adjustable spray nozzle.
6.3 USING DETERGENT
Add detergent to the tank. Assemble the tank with detergent dispenser. Insert the end of detergent
dispenser with plastic tab into the opening of spray gun,push and turn in the clockwise direction to lock the
detergent dispenser and spray gun together.
The use of detergents can dramatically reduce cleaning time and assist in the removal of difficult stains.
Some detergents have been customized for pressure washer use on specific cleaning tasks.These
detergents are approximately as thick as water.The use of thicker detergents,such as dish soap,will clog the
chemical injection system and prevent the application of the detergent. The cleaning power of detergents
comes from applying them to a surface and ,giving the chemicals time to break down the dirt and
grime.Detergents work best when applied at low pressure
18

6.4 WATER INLET SCREEN
The water inlet filter must be inspected regularly,so as to avoid blockage and restriction in the water supply
to the pump.
6.5 ADJUSTABLE SPRAY NOZZLE
The adjustable nozzle will allow you to use any
variety of spray patterns from a full fan spray
(diagram 1) to a direct stream spray (diagram 2).
When using the pressure cleaner to clean wood
decks, siding, vehicles etc., always start using the
fan spray and begin spraying from a minimum 36”
away to avoid damaging the surface of the material
you are cleaning. Always begin by spraying in a
testing area free and clear of people and objects.
Warning: High pressure jets can be dangerous if subject to misuse. The jet must not be directed at persons,
live electrical equipment or the appliance itself. Do not direct the jet against yourself or others in order
to clean clothes or foot-wear.
6.6 CLEANING PIN INSTRUCTION
Using included nozzle cleaner tool, insert wire into the nozzle hole and move back and forth until debris is
dislodged.
