NOTICE:
To avoid mechanical error in the pres-
sure switch, always leave a two-second interval
between trigger operations.
Safety valve
This appliance is equipped with a safety valve that
prevents undue overpressure. When the trigger is
released, the valve opens and the water recirculates
through the pump inlet.
CAUTION:
Do not tamper with or adjust the
safety valve setting.
Supplying water from a tank/reservoir
You can supply water from a tank or reservoir instead
of a faucet.
Replace the water hose connector with the suction hose set.
When connecting the suction hose set, disconnect the filter
case from the hose and attach the filter case to the inlet of the
high pressure washer. Then, connect the hose to the filter case.
NOTE: When removing/connecting the hose from/to
the filter case, turn the sleeve while holding the hose
so that the hose does not rotate with the sleeve.

CAUTION:
When attaching the sleeve to the
filter case, be careful not to hurt your hand by the
hose band.
NOTICE:
Always use Makita's suction hose set.
NOTICE:
Always keep 1 m (3.28 ft) or less in
height between the inlet of the high pressure
washer and the water surface. Otherwise, the high
pressure washer will be unable to take the water up
into the pump.
To introduce water into the hose, remove the nozzle
from the trigger gun and switch on the high pressure
washer while the trigger is squeezed. Once water is
ejected stably from the trigger gun, release the trigger
and attach the nozzle for your purpose.
