secure it (See Fig. M).
Removing
Press the patio cleaner towards the extension lance and
rotate it anti-clockwise to remove it
If the angle of the patio cleaner assembly to the trigger
gun and extension lance is incorrect, detach the patio
cleaner from the extension lance, rotate the patio
cleaner 180 degrees, align ridges and grooves, and
connect again.
Patio Cleaner water pressure may be adjusted.
Turning the regulator knob clockwise increases the
pressure, anti-clockwise decreases the pressure (See
Fig. N).
OPERATION
Connection to the water supply
WARNING: Do not connect machine to potable
water supply.
1. Attach a suitable water hose with the correct
connection to the water supply and then attach the
other end to the water filter on the cleaner.
2 Once, the hose connection is secure, turn on the
water supply.
Alternative water supply
A self priming mechanism allows for the product
to optionally be connected to a bucket or water
tank instead of a water supply main. With the hose
inserted into the bucket or water tank, the self priming
mechanism will draw water directly from the bucket or
tank.
NOTE: Pay close attention to the amount of water
in the bucket or water tank to ensure that there is an
adequate supply of water to avoid running the pump
dry.

large blockages. Blocked air vents can
cause overheating and damage to the
product.
Operation
1. Assemble the machine as described in
manual and switch it on.
2. Hold the trigger gun with both hands.
3. Direct the nozzle of your chosen attachment
away from yourself and others towards the
surface to be cleaned.
4. Press the trigger and direct the water jet at
the selected object to be washed.
5. Hold the lance the appropriate distance
away from the surface being cleaned
to avoid damaging it. If working on a
delicate surface a further away distance is
advised (see below for suggested cleaning
methods).
6. Release the trigger to stop the water jet.
Cleaning vertical walls
1. For best results first dissolve dirt by
applying a detergent mixed with water to
the surface while the surface is still dry.
2. Allow the detergent to soak into the surface
for 1-3 minutes but do not let the detergent
dry.
3. Start from the bottom of the wall using
the high pressure rotor (turbo) nozzle at a
minimum distance of 30cm and work in an
upward direction. Do not let the rinse water
flow into unwashed areas.
4. If working on a large section of wall divide
the wall into sections to be cleaned.
5. On some walls high pressure cleaning

13
12
High pressure cleaner WG600E WG601E WG602E
using the rotor (turbo) nozzle might not be
the best solution for cleaning dirt especially
if the surface is painted or has delicate
parts it may get damaged. In that case
a suitable brush may be use instead to
remove dirt.
Wood and Vinyl Decks (Nozzle)
1. Divide your work area into sections and
clean each section individually for best
results.
2. Rinse at high pressure using the fixed
spray nozzle keeping the tip of the nozzle at
least 15-25cm away from the surface.
3. If using the rotor (turbo) nozzle with direct
spray increase the distance from the
surface.
NOTE: If your deck is made of a softer wood
increase the minimum distance from the
nozzle tip.
Cement patios, stone, and brick (Nozzle)
Rinse at high pressure in a sweeping motions
while keeping the nozzle tip approximately
7-15 cm away from the surface. Increase the
distance if using the direct spray from the
rotor (turbo) nozzle or if the patio slabs have
damaged grouting or use a sand filler.
Wood and Vinyl Decks, Cement Patios,
Stone, and Brick (Patio Cleaner WG602E
only)
1. Attach patio cleaner to lance.
2. Adjust water pressure on patio cleaner.
Higher pressure is suited for brick, stone,
and concrete and lower pressure is suited
for wood.
3. Divide your work area into sections and
clean each section for best results. Using
patio cleaner make sweeping strokes to
clean a section then move on.
Cars, boats and motorcycles
1. To achieve best results clean one side at a
time.
2. Apply foam using the high pressure foam
nozzle to one side and then rinse it off
using the fixed spray nozzle in a sweeping
motion. Maintain a distance of at least
20cm away from the cleaning surface. If
using a direct spray from the rotor (turbo)
nozzle, maintain a further distance.
3. Wipe the surface dry using an appropriate
cloth for a highly polished finish and shine.
NOTICE! Never clean the engine or motor
using this product.
After use
1. Release the trigger.
2. Turn the on/off switch to “O” (off).
3. Turn off the water supply tap.
4. Press the trigger to relieve the pressure still
present inside the product and hose.
5. Lock the trigger by pressing the lock button
located on the grip.
6. Disconnect the water hose from the water
filter inlet.
7. Disconnect from the power supply/outlet.
8. If you will not be using this product for
a long period of time, dismantle the
accessories.
9. Check, Clean and store the product.
MAINTENANCE
Before performing any inspection,
maintenance and cleaning disconnect from
the power supply and let the product cool
down.
Inspect the product for damaged or worn parts
before each use. Do not operate it if you find
damaged or worn parts. Contact your supplier
or the manufacturer for replacement parts.
Filter maintenance
1. Unscrew the water filter/hose connector
from the back of the machine.
2. Use a blunt tool to remove the rubber seal
from the water filter/hose connector.
3. Use a blunt tool to remove the water filter
from within the hose connector.
4. Rinse the parts with clear water before
reassembling.
5. Insert the water filter into the hose
connecter in the same manner in which
you took it out in back into the hose
connector using your fingers.
6. Insert the rubber seal back into the water
filter/hose connector.

15
14
High pressure cleaner WG600E WG601E WG602E
7. Screw the water filter/hose connector back
onto the inlet on the back of the machine.
Nozzle Maintenance
1. Remove any dirt deposits from the nozzles
using a needle at the back of instruction
manual.
Decalcification
From time to time calcium deposits will form
in the products and accessories.The frequency
of the deposit formation depends on the
degree of hardness of your tap water. (you
can check with your local water company to
determine the hardness of your water).
1. To dissolve calcium deposits make a
mixture of one part vinegar or citric acid to
two parts hot water (40°C).
2. Pour the mixture into a suitable container
e.g. in a bowl or tray.
3. Lay the detachable accessories in the
mixture.
4. Leave them for approximately 12 hours
depending on the severity of the deposits.
5. Finally rinse the accessories with clear
water, dry them, and put them away.
Power Cord Replacement
If the power cord appears damaged or worn,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a
service agent or a similarly qualified person in
order to avoid a safety hazard. Do not attempt
to use the product with a damaged power
cord!
CLEANING/STORAGE
Clean the moulded plastic housing of the
machine using a soft brush and clean cloth. Do
not use water, solvents or polishes. Remove
all debris, especially from the motor cooling
vents.
Store in a secure, dry place out of the reach of
children.
Do not place other objects on the product.
