English
Make sure the cap of the fuel is tightly and correctly
closed while you are using the machine. Make sure
to correctly and tightly close the cap on the fuel after
refilling.
Always store fuel in approved containers that comply
with the European standards.
Do not use fuel that has been stored for longer than
2 months. A fuel that has been stored for too long will
cause the starting of the machine to be more difficult
and with an unsatisfactory engine performance. If the
fuel has been in the tank for over two months, remove
it from the machine and replace it with fuel in perfect
conditions.
2.5. USE AND CARE OF THE MACHINE
Only use this high pressure washer in domestic
conditions to clean objects such as chairs, tables,
vehicles, terraces, floors etc. Do not use this machine
to clean or wash animals and other persons. Do not
use this machine to clean fragile objects that do not
tolerate water at a high pressure. do not place the
mouthpiece closer than 30cm to the surface being
cleaned.
The high pressure blast that the machine produces
is dangerous if used unduly. Do not use this machine
to clean people or animals. Do not use this machine
to clean fragile objects or articles that do not tolerate
water. Do not direct the blast from this machine onto
yourself, other people, animals electric equipment or
to the machine itself.
Do not direct the blast produced by this machine to
objects that could be a health hazard.
Take extreme precaution when cleaning vehicles
and specifically tyres. The high pressure blast could
damage the tyres or the tyre valves and this could
cause a fatal accident when driving. When cleaning a
vehicle do not place the mouthpiece closer than 30cm
to the surface being cleaned.
Do not high pressure wash any other liquid that is
not water or water with soap. Do not high pressure
solvents, petrol or any other flammable products
because the mist exhaled by the machine is
FLAMMABLE and there exists therefore an extreme
danger of explosion. In any case, these products will
damage the joints and pieces of the pump lowering
the efficiency of the machine.
Do not pulverize acids, alcalines or fuels as the
operator could breathe these dangerous particles
causing damages in the respiratory system and on
the skin.
Electrocution danger. Never project water towards
electric tools and electric cables.
Make sure you connect the machine to a water source
with sufficient water flow for the machine to operate.
If the water flow is not sufficient, the machines pump
will work in a vacuum thus forcing it, weakening it and
in the long run, breaking it. The temperature of the
water should not be higher than 40ºC
Make sure that the water to which the machine is
connected is clean and has no impurities. If there is
any risk that the water may contain impurities (sand or
other materials) you should filter it firstly.
When the machine is started, the pressure pump
starts to function constantly even if the trigger is not
pressed. If the machine is running and the trigger
is not being pressed, the water still runs internally
through a closed circuit and the machine will gradually
heat up. So as not to damage the pump in excess, a
valve will be triggered when the water temperature
reaches 60 degrees, releasing hot water and
