3 Installation
3.1 Installation conditions The machine should be in-
stalled in a frost-free room.
This applies to pump as well as
pipelines incl. of outlet points.
If connected to outdoor outlet
points it should be possible to
close and empty that part of the
line which is exposed to frost.
The maximum ambient tempe-
rature for the machine is 40°C.
Air humidity: max. 80% relative
humidity.
2 Description
2.1 Application This high pressure hot water
washer has been developed
for stationary installation and
professional use within:

3.2 Condition of distance In consideration of the cooling
system of the machine and the
accessibility of service, there
must be free wall space on both
sides of the machine. To the
right 500 mm at a minimum and
to the left 150 mm at a mini-
mum. To the ceiling there must
be at least 1000 mm and from
the rear point of the machine to
the back wall there must be at
least 100 mm. There must not
be any other objects in this area
either, such as pipes etc.
3.3 Mounting of feet and
levelling of machine
Place the machine on a plane
floor.
IMPORTANT: Of safety rea-
sons it is important that the
machine is level because of the
functionality of the boiler drain.
To level the machine, loosen
the lock nut on the appropriate
feet and adjust the height by
screwing the foot up or down.
Next cross-tighten the lock nuts
around the flange. It is impor-
tant that all 4 feet are in contact
with the floor.

The machine is delivered
without feet mounted. Loosen
the machine from the pallet and
mount the 4 feet by fastening
them to the flange underneath
the machine by means of a 19
mm open-end wrench.
3.4 Mounting of handle Mount the enclosed handles on
the machine by pressing them
into the suitable openings in the
cabinet.

3.7 Mains power connec-
tion
CAUTION! An authorized elec-
trician must perform the electri-
cal connection of the machine
to the main power supply. Refer
to section "1 Safety precau-
tions and warnings".
The water connection is made
through a flexible hose connect-
ed to the quick coupling on the
water inlet (7) of the machine.
Make sure that the supply
hose is suited for the purpose
(temperature and flow rate). If
in doubt, contact your Nilfisk
representative.
The connection can be made to
a public drinking water supply
network or a private water sup-
ply. A shut-offcock should be
mounted on the water supply
network in the immediate vicini-
ty of the machine. Make sure
that the water supply is within
3.5 Mounting of spacers Mount the enclosed spacers at
the back of the machine.

the following specifications and
that the water does not contain
particles such as floating sand.
Min. water inlet pressure: 1 bar
(at the required flow rate of the
machine - see data plate.)
Max. water pressure: 10 bar
Max. water inlet temp.:
GH model: 85°C.
G model: 35°C.
All machine feature a water
tank, and no further protection
against back-flowing water into
the supply network is required.
The machine complies with EN
1717.
If there is a risk of floating sand
or other impurities in the inlet
water, a sand filter (50 micron)
should be mounted between the
supply outlet and the internal
filter of the machine.
Clean the water inlet filter (7)
once a month or in case of
poor throughput (inlet pressure
below 1 bar at the flow rate
required by the machine).

3.8 High pressure connec-
tion
The outlet of the machine (1)
can be connected directly to a
standard high pressure hose (a)
or to a pipeline with fixed outlet
points (c).
IMPORTANT: When connec-
ting to a pipeline always use a
flexible hose connection from
the outlet of the machine (1).
Contact your Nilfisk distributor
for further information.
It is recommended to let a ser-
vice technician authorized by
Nilfisk prepare the pipeline.
3.9 Venting G models When the machine is properly
connected to supply water,
electrical installation and a high
pressure hose (or pipeline) the
high pressure pump must be
vented before it is operational.
ON
1.Turn the main switch, (2) to
position “ON”.
2.Push the “START” button (3),
and the machine will start.
3.Open the outlet point (spray
handle on high pressure
hose, (d) or outlet on piping
system (e) without having a
spray lance connected.
4.Let the water run until all air
has escaped from the pump
(even water flow).
5.In the case of a recently
installed piping system, or if
the pipeline and the pump
have been emptied in any
other way, the system should
be vented by starting the
pump and then letting the
water run at each outlet point
of the pipeline at turns. It is
recommended to begin with
the most distant outlet (height
and/or length).
6.When connecting the high
pressure hose directly to the
machine, starting the pump
and activating the trigger of
the spray handle without hav-
ing attached the spray lance,
whould vent the system.
7.Stop the machine by pressing
the "STOP" push button (4).
The machine is now vented.

3.10 Venting GH model When the machine is properly
connected to supply water,
electrical installation and a high
pressure hose (or pipeline) the
high pressure pump must be
vented before it is operational.
1.Turn the main switch, (2), to
position "ON".
2.It is important that the heating
tank is filled with water before
the venting can take place.
Pushing the “START” push
button (3) and keeping it de-
pressed will do this. The inlet
solenoid valve then opens
and allows water to enter the
heating tank. When the tank
is full, the solenoid valve will
automatically shut off, and
the machine will start. This
procedure will be necessary
whenever the tank is emptied
– i.e. during service.
3.Otherwise push the “START”
button (3), and the machine
will start.
4.Open the outlet point - spray
handle on high pressure
hose, (d) or outlet on piping
system (e) without having a
spray lance connected.
5.Let the water run until all air
has escaped from the pump
(even water flow). If little
or no water flows from the
system, it may be necessary
to vent the internal feed pump
separately. The Nilfisk service
technician should perform this
by loosening the center screw
on the feed pump, see arrow.
6.In the case of a recently in-
stalled piping system, or if the
pipeline and the pump have
been emptied in any other
way, the system should be
vented by starting the pump
and then letting the water run
at each outlet point of the
pipeline at turns. It is recom-
mended to begin with most
distant outlet (height and/or
length).
7.When connecting the high
pressure hose directly to the
machine, starting the pump
and activating the trigger of
the spray handle without hav-
ing attached the spray lance
should vent the system.
8.Stop the machine by pressing
the “STOP” push button (4).
The machine is now vented.

3.11 Connecting to gas
supply
Make sure that the machine
is connected to the gas sup-
ply with a flexible, approved
hose - at least 1 m long. This
will eliminate vibrations of the
machine to the gas supply line
and hereby prevent long-term
damage to the gas line.
The flexible hose also makes
it convenient and faster for the
Nilfisk service representative to
perform service on the heating
coil / heat exchanger of the ma-
chine - not having to interrupt
the gas supply.
All models are equipped with a
gas burner.
An authorized gas technician
must perform connection of the
gas burner to the public gas
supply and adjust it.
3.12 Functional descrip-
tion, GW models with
Weishaupt burner
The gas burner burns offthe
gas in a boiler. Exhaust gases
(1) are led through the funnel
(2).
The cooling fan (3) blows air in
between the outer and the inner
jacket and further on through
the funnel. The cooling air
does not enter the combustion
chamber.
NOTE: All exhaust gas
measurements must be made
in the measuring pipe (4).
Detach plug prior to measure-
ment.
If the measurements are made
above the funnel, the cooling air
will be mixed with flue gases.
