SUITABLE USE OF THE MACHINE

The appliance is intended for professional use. The appliance can be used for washing surfaces outdoors, whenever pressurised water is required to remove dirt.

Structural technologies have been studied to assure high reliability and safety levels, and long life. It is absolutely forbidden to use the machine in potentially explosive environments or areas. The working temperature must range between +5° and +50°C.

The housing shape has been studied to offer the maximum comfort of transport with suitable handle without any protrusions and dangerous corners.

The machine is supplied with a lance with gun, equipped with a handle to offer a practical working position; the shapes and the dimensions of the handle correspond to the safety norms in force.

It is forbidden to apply any protections or modifications on the spraying lance or to the washing nozzles.

The high pressure washer is suitable for washing with cold or warm water at a maximum temperature of 40^ C, higher temperatures can damage the pump.

The water you use for the washer must not be dirty, sandy or hold any corrosive chemical products, not to compromise the good functioning and the long life of the equipment.

With suitable optional accessories, it can be used for foaming and sanding-blasting, and for washings with a rotary brush for application to the gun.

CORRECT USE OF THE MACHINE

- CAUTION: The washer shall be placed on a safe and steady plane and in horizontal position.

- CAUTION: Whenever you use the high pressure washer, we suggest to grip the gun in the right position, with one hand on the handle and the other hand on the lance.
