USE OF THE APPLIANCE (Fig. E)
Starter device
Set the starter switch on (ON/I) (12a) to:
a. Start the motor (In models without AS device);
b. Set the motor ready to start (In models with AS device).
Note: If there is a pilot light on the starter device, it should
light up.
Caution! During operation the appliance must be
positioned as shown in Fig. E on a sturdy, stable surface.
Start-up (Fig. E)
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.
1. Turn on the water supply tap fully.
2. Release the safety catch (9).
3. Depress the gun trigger for a few seconds and start
up the appliance using the starter device (ON/I)(12a).
AS Models - In AS models with automatic delivery flow
cut-o system:
a. When the gun trigger is released the dynamic pressure
automatically cuts out the motor;
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 AS is to function correctly all gun releasing
and depressing operations must be performed at
intervals of less than 4 - 5 seconds.
Note: To prevent damage to the appliance, when running
do not stop the water jet for more than 10 minutes at a time.
Stopping the appliance (Fig. E)
1. Set the starter device switch on (OFF/0)(12b).
2. Depress the gun trigger and discharge the residual
pressure inside the hoses.
3. Engage the gun safety catch (9).
Restarting
1. Release the safety catch (9).
2. Depress the gun trigger and discharge the residual
air inside the hoses.
3. Set the starter device on (ON/I)(12a).
Storage
1. Switch the appliance off (OFF/0)(12b).
2. Remove the plug from the socket.
3. Turn o the water supply tap.
4. Discharge the residual pressure from the gun until
all the water has come out of the nozzle.
5. Engage the gun safety catch (9).
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 minute but do
not allow the surface to dry. Starting from the bottom, use
the high pressure jet at a minimum distance of 30 cm. 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
cleaning results, since it may damage some surfaces. The
finest adjustable nozzle jet setting or the rotating nozzle
should not be used on delicate or painted parts, or on
pressurised components (e.g. tyres, inflation valves, etc.).
Effective cleaning depends on both the pressure and volume
of the water used, to the same degree.
MAINTENANCE
Any maintenance operations not covered by this chapter
should be carried out by an Authorized sales and service
Centre.
¡Important! To ensure product SAFETY and
RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment
(other than those listed in this manual) should be
performed by authorized service centers or other qualified
organizations, always using identical replacement parts.
Unit contains no user service able parts inside.
Caution! Always disconnect the plug from the power
socket before carrying out any work on the appliance.
Cleaning the nozzle (Fig. F)
1. Disconnect the lance from the nozzle.
2. Remove any dirt deposits from the nozzle hole using
the tool (10).
Cleaning the filter (Fig. H)
Clean the suction filter and the detergent lter after every
50 hours of operation.
Unjamming the motor
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 supplied) as shown before storing it
away for winter. Put the appliance in a dry place, protected
from frost.
