2. Connecting to the water supply.
Connecting To The Water Supply
Use a reinforced hose pipe with an internal diameter of 1/2" when
connecting to the mains supply. Ensure that the hose is clean before
connecting to the pressure washer by flushing out with clean water.
Connect a 3/4" BSP female hose fitting to the male connection on
the rear of the pressure washer as shown in Fig.1.
Ensure that you comply with all your local water supply regulations
before use. Pressure washers can only be connected to the mains
water supply if a check valve is connected to the supply hose to
prevent contaminating the supply. Ensure that the supply hose is
reinforced with an internal diameter of 1/2" (13mm). Ensure that the
supply water temperature does not exceed 50˚C and pressure is not
greater than 6bar.
Connecting The High Pressure Hose
Attach the high pressure hose to the pressure washer as shown
in Fig.2. and Fig.3. Ensure that the fitting is connected securely
before connecting to the mains supply. Attach the other end of the
high pressure hose to the trigger gun as shown in Fig.4. Ensure that
the hose lock is open before inserting the fitting as shown. Once in
place move the hose lock back towards the hose connection to lock
the hose securely in position.
Lance / Nozzle Connection
Push the lance into position as shown in Fig.5. and rotate by 90˚
to lock into place (Fig.6.). Ensure that the lance and nozzle are
securely connected before connecting to power or water supply
as the nozzle and lance can be discharged at high velocity if fitted
incorrectly.

1. Initial Checks
Warning: water and electricity are
dangerous when used together. Be aware
that this equipment uses an electric motor.
Always connect to mains supply using
an RCD. Unplug from the mains before
changing accessories or carry out any
servicing.
Check that the inlet filter is clean and free
of debris and that a filter is fitted inside
the inlet connector. Ensure that the hose,
trigger gun, lance and nozzle are connected
correctly.
Ensure that the safety catch is engaged
when not in use.
Bleed the spray gun prior to connection
to the electrical supply by squeezng the
trigger. This ensures that any excess air is
released before use.
2. Connecting to the electrical supply
Ensure that the ON/OFF switch is in the
OFF position. Connect to the mains supply
using an RCD plugged into a 13A mains
socket.
Ensure that the equipment is PAT tested at
least once a year. Ensure that the voltage
marked on the appliance matches the
supply.
4. Operation
Hold the spray gun firmly in preparation for
the recoil caused by the high pressure of
the water when the trigger is pulled.
Ensure that the lance and nozzle are not
pointed at individuals. Turn the pressure
washer on by turning the switch to the
"ON" position.
5. Operation Release the handle safety catch and point the
lance at the cleaning area and pull the trigger
to release the jet.
Note: The Total Stop System (TSS) ensures
that the motor and water supply are cut off
when the trigger is released to preserve the
life of the motor.
You can adjust the water jet by twisting the
nozzle as required.
Warning: High pressure cleaning can be
damaging to objects and property and cause
loose debris to be projected at high speeds.
It is recommended that you start with a spray
angle of approximately 20˚and increase the
power of the jet gradually as required.
Using detergents: Pour compatible
detergent into the detergent tank. Set the
adjustable nozzle to the low pressure setting
by pushing the nozzle forwards as shown
in Fig 7. Allow the detergent to act for 1-2
minutes before washing off.
Pull the nozzle back again to the regular
pressure setting and remove the detergent
with a wide fan setting.
Clean the detergent bottle and tube after use.

6. Maintenance
Warning: Turn off the appliance and remove the mains plug prior to carrying out any maintenance
work.
Ensure that nozzles are kept clean and free from dirt, grease & debris.
Remove and clean the water filter regularly to protect dirt and debris from getting into the pump
and ensure water pressure is maintained at optimum level for operation.
Ensure that the air vents around the pressure washer are kept clean and clear to allow air to be
drawn freely into the coolant system.
7. Troubleshooting Guide
PROBLEM CAUSE
Motor will not start 1. Check plug for loose connections or blown fuse
Water leaking from the pump 1. The system will generate small amounts of leakage during operation
and this is normal. If leaking is extreme disconnect from water and
mains power before checking all connections are secure and fittings
are free from dirt or damage.
Circuit breaker tripping or blown fuse 1. Circuit is overloaded
2. Check extension cable. Problems can arise if cable is too long or too
thin.
3. Nozzle is partially blocked causing excessive pressure to build up
Trigger jams 1. Check that the gun safety lock is not engaged
Pump and motor do not stop when trigger
is released
1. Trigger is damaged. Contact your dealer or nearest Jefferson Repair
Center.
The motor is running but pump is not
operating at the correct pressure.
1. Air trapped in the pump. (Let the washer run with the gun open and
lance removed for a period of time until a steady stream of water is
released.
2. Suction or discharge valves are clogged or worn out. Check that
water filter is not clogged or damaged. Contact your dealer or nearest
Jefferson Repair Center.
3. Check for a kink in supply hose and that water tap is turned on to full
supply pressure.
