6 SWITCHING OFF AND STORAGE
After cleaning, switch the water cleaner off and prepare it for storage.
6.1 Switching Off
• Use the water cleaner with cold water for a couple of minutes.
• Close the tap for the water supply securely.
• Empty the water out of the water cleaner by pressing the lever (24) on the cleaner gun for a few seconds.
• Put the main switch (2) in position "0"
• Remove the plug from the power outlet.
• Press the lever (24) on the cleaner gun to eliminate any remaining pressure in the high-pressure pipe (7).
• Wait for the high pressure cleaner to cool down.
WARNING
• When the water cleaner is left to cool down, take care that:
- the water cleaner is not left unattended in the presence of unsupervised children, elderly or disabled
people.
- the water cleaner is in a stable position and not at risk of falling over.
- the water cleaner is not in contact with inflammable materials, or in their immediate vicinity.
6.2 Storage
• Wind up the high-pressure pipe (7) carefully and avoid bending it.
If you have a model with hose reel (4), unlock the device by rotating the ring nut in counter-clockwise
direction (3); wind the hose by rotating the reel in clockwise direction by using the knob (5); lock the
device by rotating the ring nut (3) in clockwise direction.
• Wind up the electric power supply cable (14).
• Put the water cleaner in a clean and dry place making sure that the electric power supply cable and the
high-pressure pipe are not damaged.
CAUTION
• The water cleaner is not frost proof.
In order to prevent the formation of ice inside the water cleaner in cold areas, it is possible to make
the high pressure cleaner take up a motor vehicle grade anti freeze before starting the "Switch off"
procedures. Contact a Skilled Technician before attempting this as the pumped liquid could damage
the seals in the high-pressure pump.
If it is not possible to protect the high pressure cleaner in cold areas as described above, it must be
brought into a warm room for the time required to melt any ice which may have formed inside it before
attempting to start it up again.
If these instructions are not followed, the high pressure cleaner may be seriously damaged.
7 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING
• Only start cleaning and maintenance once the instructions in the "Switching off" section have been
completed.
It is particularly important to always disconnect the electricity supply.
• To safeguard the safety of the high pressure cleaner, only use the original spare parts supplied by the
Manufacturer or those endorsed by him.
• The rubber pipes, the coupling and the high-pressure lances are important for safety: only use those endorsed
by the Manufacturer.
