TECHNICAL INFORMATION
ENVISAGED USE
This appliance has been designed for individual use for the cleaning of vehicles, machines, boats, masonry, etc, to remove stubborn dirt using clean water and biodegradable chemical detergents.
Vehicle engines may be washed only if the dirty water is disposed of as per regulations in force.
▶ Intake water temperature: See data plate on the appliance.
▶ Intake water pressure: Below 10 bar.
▶ Operating ambient temperature: Above 0 °C.
The machine complies with the IEC.
OPERATOR
The symbol on the front cover identifies the appliance's intended operator (professional or non-professional).
MAIN COMPONENTS (Fig. A)
- Lance with adjustable spray nozzle
- Rotary spray nozzle
- Gun with safety catch
- Power supply cable with plug (on models with this feature)
- High pressure hose
- Detergent tank (on models with this feature)
- Nozzle cleaning tool
- Rotating nozzle kit
- Handle
- Hose reel
Caution! Safety devices:
Do not tamper with or adjust the safety valve setting.
▶ Safety valve and pressure limiting valve:
The safety valve is also a pressure limiting valve. When the gun trigger is released, the valve opens and the water recirculates through the pump inlet or is discharged onto the ground.
▶ Thermostat valve (where fitted)
If the water temperature exceeds the temperature set by the manufacturer, the thermostat valve
discharges the hot water and draws in an amount of cold water equal to the amount of water discharged, until the correct temperature is restored.
▶ Safety catch (11): prevents accidental spraying of water.
INSTALLATION (Fig. B) ASSEMBLY
Caution! All installation and assembly operations must be performed with the appliance disconnected from the mains power supply.
The assembly sequence is illustrated in Fig. B.
Assembling the rotating nozzle (For models with this feature)
The rotating nozzle kit delivers greater washing power. Use of the rotating nozzle may cause of reduction in pressure of 25% compared to the pressure obtained with the adjustable nozzle. However, the rotating nozzle kit delivers greater washing power due to the rotation of the water jet.
Electrical connection
Caution! Check that the electrical supply voltage and frequency (V/Hz) correspond to those on the appliance data plate (Fig. B8) The appliance should only be connected to a mains power supply equipped with an adequate earth connection and a derential security breaker (30mA) to cut off the electricity supply in the instance of a short circuit.
Use of extension cables: Use cables featuring "IPX5" protection level. The cross-section of the extension cable should be proportionate to its length; the longer it is, the greater its cross-section should be.
Water supply connection
Caution! Only clean or filtered water should be used for intake. The delivery of the water intake tap should be equal to that of pump capacity. Place the appliance as close to the water supply system as possible.
Connection points:
● Water outlet (OUTLET)
■ Water inlet with filter (INLET)
Connection to the mains water supply
The appliance can be connected directly to the mains drinking water supply only if the supply hose is fitted with a backflow preventer valve as per current regulations in force. Make sure that the hose is at least 13mm and that it is reinforced.
ADJUSTMENT INFORMATION (Fig. C)
▶ Adjusting the spray nozzle (for models with this feature) Water flow is adjusted by regulating the nozzle (12).
▶ Adjusting the detergent (on models with this feature)
Detergent flow is adjusted using the regulator.
Adjusting the detergent pressure set the adjustable nozzle (12) on “■” to deliver detergent at the correct pressure (on models with this feature).
▶ Adjusting the pressure (on models with this feature)
The regulator (12) is used to adjust the working pressure. The pressure is shown on the pressure gauge (where fitted).
USE OF THE APPLIANCE (Fig. D) CONTROLS
Starter device (Fig. D13)
Set the starter switch on (ON/I) to:
a. Start the motor (In models without TSS device);
b. Set the motor ready to start (In models with TSS device).
Note: If there is a pilot light on the starter device, it should light up.
If the "Low/High" settings are available, use them as follows:
Low: Low pressure washing
High: High pressure washing
Set the starter device switch on (OFF/0) to shut down the appliance.
If there is a pilot light on the starter device, it should go out.
▶ Water jet control lever (14).
⚠ Caution! During operation the appliance must be positioned as shown in Fig. D on a sturdy, stable surface.
Start-up
- Turn on the water supply tap fully.
- Release the safety catch (11).
- Depress the gun trigger for a few seconds and start up the appliance using the starter device (ON/I).
Caution! Before starting up the appliance check that the water supply hose is connected properly; use of the appliance without water will damage it; do not cover the ventilation grilles when the appliance is in use.
TSS Models - In TSS models with automatic delivery flow cut-o system:
a. When the gun trigger is released, the dynamic pressure automatically cuts out the motor (see Fig. D);
b. When the gun trigger is depressed, the automatic drop in pressure starts the motor and the pressure is restored after a very slight delay;
c. If the TSS is to function correctly all gun releasing and depressing operations, must be performed at intervals of not less than 4 - 5 seconds at least.
On three-phase models for professional use: at first use, start the appliance for a very short time to check that the motor is running in the correct direction. If the motor fan is turning anti-clockwise, exchange two of the three phase wires (L1, L2, L3) in the electrical plug.
Note: To prevent damage to the appliance, do not allow it to operate dry and when running do not stop the water jet for more than 10 minutes at a time (for models without TSS device).
Stopping the appliance
- Set the starter device switch on (OFF/0).
- Depress the gun trigger and discharge the residual pressure inside the hoses.
- Engage the gun safety catch (11).
Restarting
- Release the safety catch (11).
- Depress the gun trigger and discharge the residual air inside the hoses.
- Set the starter device on (ON/I).
Storage
- Switch the appliance off (OFF/0).
- Remove the plug from the socket.
- Turn o the water supply tap.
- Discharge the residual pressure from the gun until all the water has come out of the nozzle.
- Drain and wash out the detergent tank at the end of the working session. To wash out the tank, use clean water instead of the detergent.
- Engage the gun safety catch (11).
Relling and using detergent
When using detergent, the adjustable nozzle must be set on “■” (on models with this feature).
Use of a high pressure hose longer than the one originally supplied with the cleaner, or the use of an additional hose extension, may reduce or completely halt the intake of detergent. Fill the tank with highly degradable detergent.
Recommended cleaning procedure
Dissolve dirt by applying the detergent mixed with water to the surface while still dry. When dealing with vertical surfaces work from the bottom upwards. Leave the detergent to act for 1-2 minutes but do not allow the surface to dry. Starting from the bottom, use the high pressure jet at a minimum distance of 30cm. Do not allow the rinse water to run onto unwashed surfaces.
In some cases, scrubbing with brushes is needed to remove dirt. High pressure is not always the best solution for good washing results, since it may damage some surfaces. The finest adjustable nozzle jet setting or the rotopower nozzle should not be used on delicate or painted parts, or on pressurised components (e.g. tyres, inflation valves, etc.). Effective washing depends on both the pressure and volume of the water used, to the same degree.
MAINTENANCE (Fig. E)
Any maintenance operations not covered by this chapter should be carried out by an Authorized sales and service Centre.
⚠ Caution! Always disconnect the plug from the power socket before carrying out any work on the appliance.
Cleaning the nozzle
- Disconnect the lance from the nozzle.
- Remove any dirt deposits from the nozzle hole using the tool (7).
Cleaning the filter
Inspect the intake filter (15) and detergent filter (if fitted) before each use, and clean in accordance with the instructions if necessary.
Unjamming the motor (On models with this feature) In case of lengthy stoppages, limescale sediments may cause the motor to seize. To unjam the motor, turn the drive shaft with a tool.
End-of-season storage
Treat the appliance with non-corrosive, non-toxic antifreeze and lubricate the o-rings using the lubricating grease tube (where sup- plied) as shown before storing it away for winter. Put the appliance in a dry place, protected from frost.
