Assembly
Before use, please assem le the high pressure cleaner step y step.
First, connect the water feeding pipe to the suction pipe y making use of a stiffened tu e, then
connect the other end of the suction pipe to the machines inlet (See fig 1).
Connect the pressure hose to the machine's outlet (See fig 2). The outlet is made of Al-alloy. If the
hole is extremely narrow, you can use some lu rication oil.
Turn the water supply on, making sure the tap is fully open. Check to ensure the whole appliance is
watertight and airtight. Press the gun trigger so that the air and any pressure waste go out from the
piping. Now you can start the equipment up.
WARNING: Do not direct the jet against people, animals or any high voltage wiring. Always
disconnect the appliance from the power supply efore you change any parts.
WARNING: User must wear protective clothes efore working with the appliance.
After use, make sure the appliance and hose are oth dried.
Check the supply voltage. The voltage shown on the rating plate must match the supply voltage.
Use only watertight power plugs and cords, with ru er insulation enclosures.
Inadequate extension cords can e dangerous.
Connect the hose to the jet gun (see fig 4)
Connect the nozzle to the jet gun (see fig 3). Turn the nozzle clockwise until it locks into position,
so the sealing ring is not damaged. All spare parts for the jet gun are equipped with ring-nut
connection. Connect the hose to the machine. Check that the seal ring is properly seated.

Connect to the water supply
The cleaner is not suita le for connection directly to pota le water mains.
Connect the machine to the water supply (alternately it can e a water container).
Make sure the inlet water pressure keeps etween 0.01MPa and 0.3MPa.
The inlet pipe should e at least 5M long. Do not use the pipe if the pipe is damaged.
If you want to connect the unit to pota le water mains, you must install a ackflow preverter in the
water pipe to prevent dirty water flowing ack into the drinking system. The ackflow preventer
must comply with EN 60335-2-79 ANNEX AA.
