 Suspend end of suction hose in a con-
tainer filled with detergent.

desired concentration.
Interrupting operation
 Release the lever on the trigger gun.
Note:When the lever of the hand spray gun
is released, the engine continues to run at
zero speed. The water thus circulates with-
in the pump and gets heated. When the cyl-
inder head at the pump has reached the
maximum permissible tempertaure (80 °C),
the therm-valve on the pump opens and
lets out the hot water into the open.
Cooling can be hastened while using com-
pressed water from the water supply pipes:
 Pull the lever of the hand spray gun for
2 - 3 minutes so that the circulating wa-
ter cools down the cylinder head.
After operation with detergent
 Set dosing value for detergent to "0".
 Open the hand spray gun and rinse the
appliance for at least 1 minute.
Turn off the appliance
