Working Advice
General
Never use a roto nozzle or pencil jet to clean motor
u
vehicles.
Ensure that the pressure washer is on level ground.
Do not overreach with the high pressure hose or move the
pressure washer by pulling the hose, this could cause the
ma-chine to become unstable and fall over.
Do not kink or drive a motor vehicle over the high pressure
hose. Do not expose the high pressure hose to sharp edges
or corners.
Working advice for cleaning with detergents
Only use cleaning agents suitable specifically for high
u
pressure washers.
Detergents must not be used undiluted. The products are
u
safe to use as they contain no acids, alkalis or substances
which are detrimental to the environment. We recom-
mend that the detergents are kept out of the reach of chil-
dren. If detergent comes into contact with the eyes, wash
immediately with plenty of water and if swallowed contact
a doctor immediately.
Comply with the application, disposal and warning in-
u
structions of the detergent manufacturers.
We recommend using cleaning agent sparingly in the interest
of environmental protection. Observe the recommended di-
lution on the detergent label.
Recommended cleaning method
Step 1: Attach the fixed fan nozzle and remove the heavy
dirt.
Step 2: Attach the foam bottle and spray on the detergent
sparingly.
Step 3: Rinse off the loosened dirt and detergent with the
fan nozzle.
Troubleshooting
Problem
Possible Cause

Frozen
Motor stops
Circuit breaker activated/fuse blown

Note: When cleaning a vertical surface spray off dirt/deter-
gent from the bottom and work in an upwards direction.
Rinse from the top and work downwards.
Use with alternative water sources
This high-pressure washer will self prime and can draw water
from water tanks and natural water sources. It is IMPORTANT
that the water is clean and the BOSCH inlet filter is clear and
fitted to the machine.
Open tanks/containers and natural water
sources
Use the Self Priming accessory kit comprising:
– Inlet strainer with non return valve
– 3 m reinforced supply hose
– Universal coupling to the pressure washer
This enables the pressure washer to draw water up to 0.5 m
above the water level in the source. This may take up to 15
seconds.
Submerge the 3 m hose in water to displace the air. Connect
the 3 m supply hose to the pressure washer ensuring that
the inlet strainer remains submerged in the water source.
Run the pressure washer with the lance disconnected until a
steady flow of water appears from the high pressure hose.
Stop if this has not been achieved within 25 seconds and
check all the connections. Switch off and connect the lance
and nozzle to operate.
It is important to ensure that all hose and coupling connec-
tions are of good quality, air tight and that all washers are in
good condition and correctly seated in place. Failure to do
so may affect the self priming performance.
Water Tanks with outlet connections
When connecting the pressure washer to a water tank with a
suitable tap outlet, first connect the supply hose (not
provided) to the tank outlet, open the tap to allow the water
to displace all the air in the hose and then connect to the
pressure washer.
Corrective Measure
Connect plug
Use another socket
Reset the circuit breaker/Change the fuse and/or
switch to another circuit with higher ampere con-
sumption.
Try without extension cable
Allow to cool for 15 minutes
Wait for pump/water supply hose/accessory to
thaw
Reset the circuit breaker/Change the fuse and/or
switch to another circuit with higher ampere con-
sumption.
