6. INFORMATION FOR USAGE
6.1 SAFETY VALVE AND/OR PRESSURE LIMITING VALVE
WARNING!
Do not tamper with or adjust the safety valve setting.
The safety valve is also a pressure limiting valve. When the gun trigger is released, the valve opens,
pressure switch action, the machine automatically shut down.
If the gun nozzle is blocked, it will cause the machine pressure to rise, the safety valve opens, the
pressure switch action, the machine automatically shut down, you can refer to the following point 7 to use
a needle to clean the nozzle.
6.2 AUTOMATIC ON/OFF
The pressure cleaner is equipped with an automatic on/off switch. The pressure cleaner will only run
when the power switch is in the ON position and the trigger on the gun is squeezed. When you release
the trigger to stop spraying water through the gun, the motor on the pressure cleaner will automatically
shut off. Simply squeeze the trigger again to resume using the cleaner. To stop using the pressure cleaner,
release the trigger and switch the unit to the OFF position. The unit should be turned completely OFF
while not in use or while unattended.
6.3 BLEEDING THE GUN
It is very important to bleed the gun before using the pressure cleaner. Refer to the “Assembly
Instructions” to assemble the pressure cleaner. To bleed the gun, simply connect the garden hose to the
pressure cleaner and squeeze the trigger BEFORE turning the electrical supply on. This allows any air
trapped inside the pressure cleaner and gun to be removed before using the unit. Continue holding the
trigger for approximately one minute to allow any excess air out of the unit. Water will flow through the gun
at low pressure during this procedure. For more bleeding tips, see the section titled “Operating
Instructions.”
6.4 GUN SAFETY LOC
The operator should press the unlock button and then actuate the trigger to start 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.

6.5 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. (Fig.6)
Fig.6 Fig.7
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 SURFACE CLEANER
The surface cleaner allows efficient cleaning of terraces, paths and similar large surfaces. This function
provides the user with optimum splash protection. The high pressure nozzles in the cleaning housing are
rotated by water pressure. The housing and tight brushes close to the edge prevent splashing.
First, place the surface cleaner on the surface to be cleaned and turn on the high pressure cleaner, as
described above. Without too much pressure, guide the surface cleaner onto the surface to be cleaned.
ATTENTION: Never operate the spray gun trigger until the surface cleaner is placed on the surface to be
cleaned.
You can remove algae, moss and other dirt of the same type from terraces, paths and similar surfaces
without splashing.
6.7 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.
