Supplying water from a tank/reservoir
CAUTION:
When attaching the sleeve to the
filter case of the strainer assembly, be careful not
to hurt your hand by the hose band.
NOTICE:
Always use Makita's hose assembly
and strainer assembly.
NOTICE:
Always keep 1.0 m 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.
NOTICE:
The water level that the machine can
pump up is 100 mm or more.
NOTICE:
Do not use water from rivers, ponds,
or water mixed with sand or mud. Doing so may
cause malfunction.
NOTE: If it takes a long time for the water to come
out, clean the strainer and the filter of the strainer
assembly.
You can supply water from a tank or reservoir instead of a faucet.
1. Turn off the machine, and remove the nozzle from
the trigger gun.
