See Fig. A1 Removing the battery pack See Fig. A2 Charging the battery pack NOTE: The batteries are shipped uncharged. Each battery must be fully charged before the first use. Always fully charge the two batteries at same time. More details can be found in WA3884’s manual. See Fig. A3 ASSEMBLY Attaching pressure cleaning lance to the power nozzle NOTE: When attaching, align the two projections on the lance with the grooves of the power nozzle as shown in Fig. B. See Fig. B Attaching the multi-spray nozzle NOTE: When attaching, try gently pulling the nozzle to make sure it is locked into position securely. See Fig. C Attaching the cord hose to the power nozzle See Fig. D1 Detaching the cord hose See Fig. D2 Attaching the draw hose to the pump motor NOTE: After the draw hose is attached, check the connection by gently pulling upon the draw hose.

OPERATION Battery power indicator on the machine See details in BATTERY STATUS part See Fig. I Pressure setting Your power nozzle has two pressure modes, High and Low, delivering different pressure settings per mode. See Fig. J Selecting the nozzle pattern NOTE: Choose a suitable nozzle pattern according to your work. Spray patterns 0

are applicable for cleaning.

WARNING: Do not shift the

nozzle pattern when the tool is powered on due to potential temporary water leakage. Make sure the nozzle pattern symbol aligns with the indicator mark on tool, otherwise the nozzle will leak and there will be no sufficient working pressure. See Fig. K1,

Start NOTE: At the first use, you need to empty the air in hose, place the power nozzle below waist level (<5 ft / 1.5 m), then attach the pressure cleaning lance and set it at high pressure. It does not start working until the water goes up along the hose and sprays out. This could take up to 30 seconds or more depending on the fresh water source. NOTE: If air builds up within the hose or pump, the water pressure will drop. First, restart the machine, then air will be released through the multi-spray nozzle along with any excess water. See Fig. LCordless Portable Power Cleaner EN

Do not connect the machine to water supplies that are dirty, rusty, muddy, or corrosive. (Including window cleaning liquids, plant foods, or fertilizers etc.) NOTE: Not recommended for use with salt water, immediately rinse with fresh water for proper maintenance.

During operation, the battery capacity will be indicated automatically by the battery power indicator. The indicator constantly senses and displays the battery condition as follows. For a machine with 2 battery packs with different power levels, the power indicator light displays the battery condition with the lower power level of the two batteries. Battery power indicator status Battery condition Five green lights

) are illuminated. The two batteries are in a highly charged condition. Two, three or four green lights are illuminated. The two batteries have a remaining charge. The more lights are illuminated, the more battery capacity. Only one green light

) is illuminated. The battery level of at least one battery pack is very low. Please check and charge the battery pack. No light is illuminated. At least one battery is not fully installed or battery may be defective. Only one light is flashing twice per cycle. At least one battery is over discharged (please refer to the battery charge condition), please recharge the two batteries at once before use again or storage. Only one light is flashing three times per cycle. At least one battery is hot, wait for them cool down before start again. Only one light is flashing four times per cycle. The machine is over load.

Straighten out the hose. Additional air could be sucked into the machine. If air builds up within the hose or pump, the water pressure will drop. First, restart the machine, then air will be released through the multi-spray nozzle along with water. Multi-spray nozzle leaks. The nozzle pattern does not spray correctly. Make sure the nozzle pattern symbol aligns with the indicator mark on tool. Fixing nail of the multi-spray nozzle loosens. Tighten it with a hex key. Air built up within the hose or pump. Continue to operate the machine for a few moments until leakage stops. Outlet pressure increases suddenly. Multi-spray nozzle is blocked. Replace with a new multi-spray nozzle. Machine drains out water after stopping. There is water remaining in the lance and pump after stopping. Drain all the water completely before storage. Soap accessory cannot spray out any detergent. Blockage in the soap bottle. Clean it with fresh water. The machine is not connected to the water source. Connect to the water source before turning on the machine. Machine does not start. The battery pack is not attached well. Reinstall the battery pack. Battery pack is empty. Replace with a new battery pack or recharge the battery pack. Defective battery. Replace with a new battery pack. Machine pressure is not consistent. Additional air could be sucked into the machine. Check connection between the hose adapter and the draw hose.
