flammable liquids.
- WARNING To ensure machine safety, use only
original spare parts from the manufacturer or
approved by the manufacturer.
- WARNING: High pressure hoses, fittings and
couplings are important for the safety of the
appliance. Use only hoses, fittings and couplings
recommended by the manufacturer

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Before using the tool, read the instruction book carefully.
CAUTION!
• Neverusethepressurewashertodrawinwater
contaminated with solvents (e.g. paint thinners,
gasoline, oil, etc.).
• Dirtinthefeedwaterwilldamagetheunit.To
avoid this risk, we recommended checking the
water filter (located inside the water inlet; to clean
it out see maintenance section).
• Alwayspreventdebrisfrombeingdrawnintothe
unit by using a clean water source and an acces-
sory water source and an accessory water filter if
required.
Water supply (cold water only)
1. Do not draw non-water liquids through the unit.
For use with cold water supply only.
2. Water hose must be at least a 1/2” in diameter.
3. Flow rate of water supply must not fall below 6 l /
min.
4. Flow rate can be determined by running the water
for one minute into an empty container.
5. The water supply temperature must not exceed
40oC (104oF)
ASSEMBLY
1. ASSEMBLING SPRAY GUN HOLDER
Press the spray gun holder (9) on to the machine.
(See Fig, A)
2. MOUNTING OF HOLDER FOR ELECTRIC CABLE
Press the holder for electric cable (4) on to the
machine. (See Fig. B)
3. MOUNTING OF WHEELS
Mount the wheels (12) by pressing them into the
bracket. (See Fig. C1)
4. MOUNTING OF INLET WATER CONNECTOR
Unscrew white protection cap from inlet thread, screw
quick connector to inlet (13). Please ensure water filter
always fitted before every operation.(See Fig.C2)
5. MOUNTING OF ADJUSTABLE SPRAY NOZZLE AND
LANCE HOLDER
Place the lance holder fence (10) on to the machine,
and fix the screws. (See Fig. D)
6. MOUNTING OF HANDLE
Press the handle (14) on to the machine, and fix the
screws. (See Fig. E)
7. ASSEMBLING THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE
1) Make sure that ON/OFF switch is in OFF position.
(See Fig. F)
2) Insert the high-pressure hose to spray gun.
(See Fig. G)
3) Insert the connection lance (16) into spray gun,
and twist 1/4turn. Then insert the adjustable spray
lance (8) into the connection lance (16), and twist
1/4turn until rectangular tab appears. (See Fig. H)
4) Unscrew white protection cap from outlet thread
and connect high pressure hose with outlet (2),
and then tighten ring (a) with clockwise. (See Fig.I)
8. CONNECTING WATER SUPPLY
Connect water pipe with female coupler (no supplied)
to quick connector of inlet.(See Fig. J)
OPERATION
1. ON/OFF SAFETY SWITCH
1) Connect the plug to into a properly outlet.
2) Trigger switch is in a locked off position to prevent
in accidental starting. Depress safety lock (5) to
“unlocking” position, then trigger switch is now
on. Release trigger switch (15) and depress safety
lock (5) to “locking” position to activate safety
lock.(See Fig. K)

HIGH PRESSURE WASHER EN

3) Before operate high pressure washer, press the
trigger switch (15) to bleed any trapped air out of
the pump and hose. (See Fig. K)
4) Start the pressure washer by turning ON/OFF
switch to ON. Press the trigger. Reminder: motor
does not run continuously, only when trigger is
squeezed. (See Fig. L)
2.SURFACE PREPARATION
Before staring any cleaning task it is important the
area for objects which could create a hazard. Remove
objects from the work area which area which could
be tripped over, such as toys or outdoor furniture.
Ensure that all doors and windows are closed tight.
3. USING THE ACCESSORIES
1) ADJUSTABLE WAND
The adjustable nozzle allows you to use any variety of
spray patterns from a fan spray to a pencil jet spray.
When using pressure washer 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.
CAUTION: Do not adjust the nozzle while the trigger is squeezed.
2) ADJUSTING THE SPRAY
The adjustable spray nozzle can adjust from fan to
jet setting. The spray is adjusted from jet spray to fan
spray by turning the nozzle. (See Fig. M).
NOTE: The pressure of the spray on the surface you
are cleaning increases as you move the wand closer
to the surface.
CAUTION: Jet spray adjustment is very aggressive. Do not adjust while spraying.
We recommend that for most cleaning applications
a 20-degree spray angle should be used to avoid
damage to the surface being sprayed.
STORAGE
The machine should be stored in a frost-free room!
Pump, hose and accessories should always be emp-
tied of water prior to storing as follows:
Stop the machine and detach water hose and acces-
sory.
Restart the machine and activate the trigger. Let the
machine run until no more water runs through the
spray gun.
3. Stop the machine, unplug and wind up hose and
cable.
4. Place spray handle, nozzles and other accessories
in the holders of the machine. Should the machine by
mistake be frozen, it will be necessary to check it for
damage.
NEVER START-UP A FROZEN MACHINE.
Frost damages are not covered by the guarantee!
Winding up of electric cable and high pressure
hose
To avoid accidents, the electric cable and the high
pressure hose should always be winded carefully up
around the handle. Wind up the cable on the appropri-
ate hook.
Storage of accessories
The lance and the nozzles can be stored on the pres-
sure washer.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Always disconnect the electrical plug from the socket prior to maintenance or
cleaning. To ensure a long and problem free working
life, please take the following advice:
- Wash out water hose, high pressure hose, spray
lance and accessories before mounting.
- Clean the connectors of dust and sand.
- Rinse the detergent spraying attachment after
use.
- Clean the nozzles.
Any repair should always be made in an authorized
workshop with original spare parts.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
CLEANING OF WATER INLET FILTER
Clean the water inlet filter regularly once a month or
more frequently according to use.
Unscrew quick connector and take water inlet out.
Check that it is intact before re-mounting it.
The inlet filter must always be fitted inside the water
inlet pipe to filter out sand, limestone and other impu-
rities, as they will damage the pump valves.
CAUTION: Failure to fit the filter will invalidate the guarantee.
Cleaning of nozzle
A clogging up in the nozzle causes a pump pressure

HIGH PRESSURE WASHER EN
which is too high. This is why cleaning is
required immediately.
1. Stop the machine and disconnect the nozzle.
2. Clean the nozzle.
IMPORTANT:
The cleaning tool (11) should only be used when the
nozzle is detached! (See Fig. N)
3. Flush the nozzle backwards with water.
Cleaning of machine vents
The machine should be kept clean so as to let cooling
air pass freely through the machine vents.
Greasing of couplings
To ensure an easy connection and that o-rings do not
dry up. The couplings should be greased regularly.
TROUBLESHOOTING

making any repair. To avoid unnecessary disappoint-
ments, you should check the following before contact-
ing the service organization:
