9. When not in use store the lance in the cup at the bottom of the machine and clip the top of the lance into the bracket of the handle.

Do not allow the end of the lance to come into contact with any debris as contamination will cause operational problems and premature wear of the nozzle assembly.

CONNECTING THE HOSE AND TRIGGER ASSEMBLY

Fig. 1 and 2

Before connecting any hoses or trigger/lance assembly first check all connections to ensure they are free from any blockage.

- Screw the outlet pressure hose (7) onto the machine and ensure a good hand tight fit.

- Connect the spray lance (5) to the trigger (6) by means of the push in and twist bayonet fitting (fig. 2). Ensure that this connection has been performed positively and the bayonet has located correctly. Ensure the hose has no kinks in it.

WATERSUPPLY

- Ensure that you have a suitable water supply to feed the pressure washer. Check that all connections are tight and there are no leaks in the hose.

• The supply tap should be fully open (do not turn on the pressure washer yet).

- Now depress the trigger (unlock trigger lock first) to let water pass through the unit and expel any air.

This unit is to be used with a cold-water source only!

Turn on the pressure washer, once all the air has

been expelled and water has reached the end of the lance.

ELECTRICAL CABLES

Ensure that all cables are damage free before connecting to the power supply. Plug in the pressure washer and turn the unit on with the main switch (3).

4. USE

The cleaner must only be used with clean water; use of unfiltered water or corrosive chemicals will damage the cleaner.

- Turn the motor switch to the "0" position.

- Check that the electrical supply voltage and frequency (Volts/Hz) correspond to those specified on the cleaner data plate.

- If the power supply is correct, you may now plug in the cleaner.

- The electric supply connection shall be made by a qualified electrician. 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 30 mA for 30 ms or a device which will prove the earth circuit.

The machine may cause electrical disturbances when starting.

If the motor stops and fails to restart, wait 2-3 minutes before restarting. THERMAL CUTOUT TRIPPED

ADJUSTING THE NOZZLE
