Safety features
The nozzle is fitted with a 'lock' for safety. If you push the button to the left, the
handle is locked and will not function. Unlock the handle by pushing this switch
back to the original position.
The motor is fitted with a thermal safety feature that switches it off when it
overheats. In principle, it will start again automatically when it is sufficiently cooled.
But it is better to switch the machine off for 5 to 10 minutes, wait, and then start it
again. Identify the cause of the overheating and remove it. If this problem recurs,
stop using the machine and contact your supplier / repair service.
Maintenance
Attention: Always take the plug out of the socket before you execute
maintenance!
Flush the water supply hose, the high-pressure hose, the jet lance, the nozzle
and other accessories thoroughly before you use them.
Carefully remove dust, sand or other dirt from the connections.
Regularly clean the nozzle with the pin supplied and then flush it thoroughly
(against the direction of the jet). To do this you must remove the nozzle from
the lance.
Regularly clean the filter in the water inlet. To do this,
unscrew the water inlet connector, remove the filter with a
screwdriver or similar tool and check that it is undamaged.
Fasten everything firmly and correctly in the appropriate
place. Never use the cleaner without a filter!
Keep the ventilation openings of the machine clean in order
to prevent obstruction of the cooling function.
Regularly grease the O-rings of the connectors in order to prevent them from
drying out.
Repairs and inspections must only be carried out by your supplier or
appropriately trained and authorised persons. Inexpertly executed repairs will
nullify the guarantee.
Never carry out repairs!
