PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
.PURPOSE
- The high pressure cleaner is designed to clean vehicle, machines,
buildings, facades, etc. in the private sector.
.AREAS OF APPLICATION
- Never use the machine in potentially explosive areas under any
circumstances!
- The operating temperature must be between 0 and +40°C
- The machine consists of an assembly with a pump, which is encased
in a shock absorbing housing. For an optimal working position the
machine come with a lance and a non-slip handle grip, whose shape
and configuration comply with the applicable regulations.
- Do not cover or modify the lance or the spray nozzles in any way.
- The high pressure cleaner is designed to be used with cold or lukewarm
(max.60); higher temperatures can damage the pump.
- Do not use water that is dirty, gritty or contains any chemical products,
as these could impair operation and shorten the life of the machine.
- Accessories can be used to carry out work with foam cleaners, sand spraying.
IMPORTANT:

- The electric supply connection shall be made by a qualified electrician
and comply with IEC60364-1.
- The electric supply to this appliance should include either a residual
current device that will interrupt the supply if the leakage current to earth
exceeds 30Ma for 30ms or device that will interrupt the earth circuit.
WARNING!
This appliance has been designed for use with the cleaning agent
supplied or recommended by the manufacture. The use of other cleaning
agents or chemicals may adversely affect the safety of the appliance.
WARNING!
Do not use the appliance within range of persons unless they wear

WARNING!
Water that has flown through backflow preventers is considered to be
non-potable.
WARNING!
The machine shall be disconnected from its power source during
cleaning or maintenance and when replacing parts for mains operated
machines by removing the plug from the socket-outlet.
WARNING!
High pressure hoses, fittings and couplings are important for safety of
the appliance. Use only hoses, fittings and couplings recommended by
the manufacturer.
- Do not use the appliance if a supply cord or important parts of the
appliance are damaged, e.g. safety devices, high pressure hoses,
trigger gun.

If an extension cord is used, the plug and socket must be of watertight
construction.
WARNING!
Inadequate extension cords can be dangerous.
- This high pressure washer must not be used at temperatures below 0°C
WARNINIG!
- Cord on drums should always be completely un winded to prevent the
cord from overheating.
- If an extension cord is used, the plug and socket must be of watertight

- Power cord connections should be kept dry and off the ground.
- If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or
his service agent or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
- All keep the machine on a stable and flat surface during operation,
handling, transportation and storage. Sudden overturn of machine will
cause injury to body.
- In the event of accident or breakdown, switch off the machine
immediately. (e.g. contact with detergent: rinse with an abundance of
clean water.
ATTENTION:
Through poor conditions of the electrical MAINS, shortly voltage drops
can appear when starting the EQUIPMENT. This can influence other
equipment (e.g. Blinking of a lamp). If the MAINS-IMPEDANCE Zmax <
0.335 OHM, such disturbances are not expected. (In case of need, you
may contact your local supply authority for further information.)
WARNING!
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Improper connection of the equipment – grounding conductor can result
in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service
person if you are unsure if an outlet is properly grounded. DO NOT
modify the plug provided with the appliance to fit an outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
.MAINS POWER CONNECTION
The following should be observed when connecting the high pressure
washer to the electric installation:
- The electric installation shall be made by a certified electrician and
comply with IEC-364.

It is recommended that the electric supply to this appliance should
include either a residual current device that will interrupt the supply if
the leakage current to earth exceeds 30mA for 30ms.
IMPOTANT:
Only use water without any impurities.
- Safety devices
- If there is a risk of running sands in the inlet water (i.e. from your own
well), an additional filter should be mounted.
- The unloader valve can reduce pressure if it exceeds pre-set values.
The spray gun features a locking device. When the pawl is activated, the
spray gun cannot be operated.
- Thermal sensor
A thermal sensor protects the motor against overloading. The machine
will restart after a few minutes when the thermal sensor has cooled.
ASSEMBLY
- The high pressure cleaner is designed to clean vehicle, machines,
buildings, facades, etc. in the private sector.
- The washer must be used standing on a secure, stable, positioned as shown.
- Fit the lance into the gun and rotate it until the two parts are completely locked.

USER MANUAL 7
- Connect the gun to high pressure hose.
- Connect the high pressure hose to the water outlet on the washer.
Outlet
- Connect the water supply hose to female coupler. Then connect to
the water inlet of the washer. The supply hose must have an internal
diameter of at least 13mm (1/2 in) and must be reinforced. the water
supply must be at least equal to the washer delivery capacity.
