Adjusting the Spray
The nozzle of the adjustable spray lance can
adjust from a wide "fan spray" to a concentrated
"pencil-point spray".
High/Low Pressure Settings
The nozzle of the adjustable spray lance slides
from a high-pressure setting to a low-pressure
setting for detergent application.
To decrease angle to pencil-point
spray, turn the nozzle clockwise.
WARNING: DO NOT disassemble the nozzle
for any reason. Doing so can result in personal
injury and will void the warranty.
Using the Accessories
Optional Cleaning Accessories
CAUTION: The pencil-point spray adjustment
is very aggressive. We recommend that for most
cleaning applications, the wide "fan" spray angle
be used to avoid damage to the surface being
sprayed.
To increase angle to a fan spray,
turn the nozzle counter-clockwise.
For low-pressure spray (detergent
application) push nozzle away from
the gun/lance assembly.
For high-pressure spray, pull nozzle
towards the gun/lance assembly.
CAUTION: Your pressure washer operates at fluid pressures and velocities high enough to cause
property damage. Before cleaning any surface, choose an inconspicuous area to test spray pattern
and distance for maximum cleaning results. If painted surfaces are peeling or chipping, use extreme
caution as pressure washer may remove the loose paint from the surface.

Entretien de base – suite
Raccords
Les raccords des tuyaux, de l'ensemble
pistolet/lance et de la lance doivent être nettoyés
régulièrement et lubrifiés avec de la graisse au
lithium pour prévenir les fuites et les dommages
aux joints toriques.
Filtre à eau
ATTENTION : Si le filtre n'est pas nettoyé, le
débit d'eau au pulvérisateur sera réduit, ce qui
pourrait causer des dommages à la pompe.
Le pulvérisateur est muni d'un filtre d'admission
d'eau qui sert à protéger la pompe. L'obstruction
de ce filtre fait diminuer le débit d'eau. Il faut alors
éteindre l'appareil et nettoyer le filtre sans attendre.
1. Débranchez le tuyau d'arrosage de l'ENTRÉE.
2. Retirez le filtre à eau de l'ENTRÉE d'eau.
3. Nettoyez le filtre à l'eau tiède.
4. Replacez le filtre sans attendre pour éviter que
tout corps étranger pénètre dans la pompe.
5. Rebranchez le tuyau d'arrosage à l'ENTRÉE.
ATTENTION : Évitez d'endommager le filtre en
le retirant ou en le nettoyant.Tout corps étranger
qui pénètre dans la pompe peut causer des
dommages à l'appareil.
Huile de la pompe
La pompe est lubrifiée pour sa durée de vie.
Il n'est pas nécessaire de changer l'huile de la
pompe et rien n'est prévu pour à cet effet.

Entreposage et hivernage
Entreposage
ATTENTION : Suivez toujours les étapes d'arrêt
de l'appareil décrites à la page 8 avant d'entreposer
le pulvérisateur ou les accessoires. Pour assurer
votre sécurité, veillez à éteindre le moteur et à
relâcher la pression résiduelle (voir la page 8).
Entreposez toujours le pulvérisateur dans un endroit
où la température ne descend PAS en dessous de
0 °C. Rangez l'appareil et les accessoires dans un
endroit sec à l'abri du gel. Ne placez PAS l'appareil
près d'une flamme nue (calorifère, chauffe-eau, etc.).
MISE EN GARDE : La pompe du pulvérisateur
peut subir des dommages permanents en cas
de gel. Les dommages causés par le gel ne sont
PAS couverts par la garantie.
Si vous devez entreposer le pulvérisateur dans un
endroit où la température descend en dessous de
0 °C, vous pouvez minimiser le risque d'endommager
l'appareil et suivant cette procédure :
1. Coupez la source d'eau et relâchez la pression
du pistolet en appuyant sur la détente.
2. Débranchez le tuyau d'arrosage de l'appareil,
mais laissez branché le tuyau à haute pression.
3. Branchez un tuyau court (non fourni) à l'entrée
d'eau du pulvérisateur.
4. Placez l'autre extrémité de ce tuyau dans un
contenant de liquide de lave-glace antigel.
5. Démarrez le moteur pour faire circuler le
liquide de lave-glace dans la pompe.
6. Appuyez sur la gâchette du pistolet et maintenez-
la enfoncée jusqu'à ce que le liquide s'écoule de
la buse. Éteignez immédiatement le moteur.
7. Relâchez la pression résiduelle en appuyant sur
la gâchette et en la maintenant enfoncée, puis
débranchez le tuyau haute pression.
Hivernage
Entreposez toujours le pulvérisateur dans un
endroit où la température ne descend PAS en
dessous de 0 °C.
ATTENTION : Videz toujours le réservoir
d'essence si vous remisez le nettoyeur haute
pression à l'intérieur.
IMPORTANT : Suivez toujours les instructions d'arrêt de l'appareil à la page 8 avant d'entreprendre
des travaux sur le pulvérisateur ou ses accessoires. Pour assurer votre sécurité, veillez à éteindre le
moteur et à relâcher la pression résiduelle (voir la page 8) avant de procéder à un entretien.
Buse
L'obstruction de la buse fait augmenter la pression
de la pompe et peut modifier la forme du jet. Il faut
alors éteindre l'appareil et nettoyer la buse sans
attendre.
Étape 1 Débranchez la lance de l'ensemble
pistolet/lance.
Étape 2 Rincez la buse à rebours avec de l'eau.
Étape 3 Rebranchez la lance à l'ensemble
pistolet/lance.
Redémarrez le pulvérisateur et appuyez sur la
détente du pistolet. Si la buse est toujours obstruée,
répétez les étapes 1 à 3.
Entretien de base
ATTENTION : Le fait que la pression résiduelle
ne soit pas relâchée peut causer des blessures
lors de l'évacuation de l'eau sous haute pression.
Raccords
Les raccords des tuyaux, de l'ensemble
pistolet/lance et de la lance doivent être nettoyés
régulièrement et lubrifiés avec de la graisse au
lithium pour prévenir les fuites et les dommages
aux joints toriques.
Le liquide de lave-glace antigel aidera à protéger
l'appareil contre le gel pendant l'entreposage et il
aidera à empêcher les pistons de coller.
