INFORMATION ON USE OF THE MACHINE (FIG.4)/PAGE 5
8.1
Controls
- Starter device (H).
Set the starter device on (ON/I) to switch the motor to standby state.
If there is a pilot light on the starter device, it should light up.
Set the starter device on (OFF/0) to stop the machine.
If there is a pilot light on the starter device, it should go out.
- Water jet trigger (I).
- Regulator (G) for "Dual Power System (DPS)".
Turn the regulator left for SOFT mode operation.
Turn the regulator right for HARD mode operation with higher
washing power.
Warning - danger!
During operation the machine must be positioned as
shown in fig.4 on a firm, stable surface.
8.2
Start-up (see fig.4)
1) Turn on the water supply tap fully.
2) Release the safety catch (D).
3) Depress the gun trigger for a few seconds and start up the
machine using the starter device (ON/I).
Warning - danger!
Before starting up the machine check that it is receiving
water correctly; use of the machine without water will dam-
age it. Do not cover the ventilation grilles when the machine
is in use.
When the gun trigger is released the dynamic pressure automati-
cally cuts out the motor;
When the gun trigger is depressed the automatic drop in pressure
starts the motor and the pressure is restored after a very slight delay;
If the machine is to function correctly, all gun trigger releasing and
depressing operations must be at least 4-5 seconds apart.
To prevent damage to the machine, do not allow it to oper-
ate dry and check that it is properly supplied with water at
all times.
8.3
Stopping
1) Set the starter device on (OFF/0).
2) Depress the gun trigger and discharge the residual pressure
inside the hoses.
3) Engage the safety catch (D).
8.4
Restarting
1) Release the safety catch (D).
2) Depress the gun trigger and discharge the residual air inside
the hoses.
3) Set the starter device on (ON/I).
8.5
Storage
1) Turn off the water supply tap.
2) Discharge the residual pressure from the trigger gun until all the
water has come out of the machine.
3) Switch the machine off (OFF/0).
4) Remove the plug from the socket.
5) Drain and wash out the detergent tank at the end of the work-
ing session. To wash out the tank, use clean water instead of
the detergent.
6) Engage the gun safety catch (D).
8.6
Using the hose reel
Warning! Always discharge residual pressure from the high
pressure hose via the trigger gun before using the hose
reel.
1) Release the hose reel, see fig.1.
2) Completely unwind the high pressure hose from the hose reel
prior to use.
3) Lock the hose reel at the end of the working session see fig.1.
8.7
Filling with and using detergent
The detergent must be delivered using the accessories and by
the procedures described in point 7.2.
Use of a high pressure hose longer than the one originally supplied
with the machine, or the use of an additional hose extension, may
reduce or completely halt the suction of detergent from a tank.
Fill the tank (B6) with highly biodegradable detergent.
8.8
Recommended cleaning procedure
Dissolve dirt by applying the detergent to the surface while still dry.
When dealing with vertical surfaces work from the bottom upwards.
Leave the detergent to act for 1-2 minutes 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 washing
results, since it may damage some surfaces. The needle jet setting
of the adjustable spray nozzle and the rotary 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 (FIG.5)/PAGE 6
Any maintenance operations not covered by this chapter should be
carried out by an Authorised Sales and Service Centre.
Warning - danger!
Always disconnect the plug from the power socket
before carrying out any work on the machine.
9.1
Inspect the power cable, high pressure hose, fittings, trig-
ger gun and lance at each use.
9.2
Cleaning the nozzle
1) Disconnect the lance from the trigger gun.
2) Remove any dirt deposits from the nozzle hole using the tool (C1).
9.3
Cleaning the filter
Inspect the inlet filter (L) and detergent filter (if fitted) before each
use, and clean in accordance with the instructions if necessary.
9.4
End-of-season storage
Before putting the machine into store for the winter, run it with non-
aggressive, non-toxic antifreeze.
Put the machine in a dry place, protected from frost.
