ENGLISH
The angle of the water stream coming out of the nozzle may be adjusted with the pulverising
nozzle. Turn the nozzle to select the focused stream, which has a high impact on the cleaning
surface and results in maximum deep cleaning in a concentrated area. This narrow high-
impact stream must be used cautiously, as it may damage some surfaces.
Note: Pay special attention when cleaning delicate surfaces such as bodywork o wheel rims,
lacquered surfaces, wood, paint, etc.

Spray mode
Turn the pulverising nozzle to select the flat-fan pattern. A wide stream will distribute the
impact of water over a larger area, resulting in excellent cleaning action with a reduced risk of
surface damage. Large surface areas can be cleaned more quickly using a wider stream.

Product operation
Note: The motor on this pressure washer does not run continuously. It only runs when the
trigger of the spray gun is squeezed. After following the start-up procedures in this manual,
press the safety-lock button and the trigger at the same time, then release the safety-lock
button. The device will operate as long as the trigger is pressed.
Nozzle cleaning
A clogged or partially clogged nozzle can cause a significant reduction of water coming out of
the nozzle and cause the unit to pulsate while spraying. To clean out the nozzle:
Turn off and unplug the unit.
Turn off water supply. Relieve any pressure trapped in the high-pressure by squeezing the
trigger 2-3 times.
Separate the lance from the gun.
Rotate the nozzle to the narrow stream setting.
Use any type of pointed element such as an unfolded paper clip to clean the nozzle. Insert the
wire into the nozzle hole and move back and forth until debris is dislodged.

Remove debris by back-flushing water through the nozzle. To do this, point the end of a garden
hose (with water running) to the nozzle's end for 30-60 seconds.
Angle from the high-pressure hose to the cleaning surface
When spraying water against a surface, maximum impact is reached when the water strikes
the surface head on. However, this type of impact tends to cause dirt particles to imbed in the
surface, thereby preventing the desired cleaning action.
The optimum angle for spraying water against a cleaning surface if 45 degrees.
Spraying water against a surface at this angle provides for the most beneficial impact force

combined with efficient removal of debris from the surface.
Distance from cleaning surface
The impact force of the water is increased as the pulverising nozzle is moved closer to the
surface.
How to avoid damaging surfaces
Damage to cleaning surfaces occurs because the impact force of the water exceeds the
hardness of the surface. The impact force can be varied by controlling the three previously
noted items. Never use a narrow high impact stream on a surface that is susceptible to damage.
Avoid spraying windows with a narrow high impact stream as this may cause breakage.
The surest way to avoid damaging surfaces is to follow these steps:
Before triggering the gun, adjust the pulverising nozzle to a wide stream.
First, follow the distance and angle instructions above.
Vary the spray angle, stream type and the distance to the cleaning surface until optimum
cleaning efficiency is achieved without damaging the surface.
Cleaning process
Surface preparation
Clean the area of furniture and make sure all windows and doors are closed tight. Also, make
sure that all plants and trees near the cleaning area are protected by a drop cloth.
Initial high-pressure rinse
Spray the cleaning surface with water to clear off any dirt or grime that may have collected
on the surface. Before triggering the gun, adjust the pulverising nozzle to a wide stream and
slowly adjust it to the desired stream. This will avoid applying too much concentrated spray to
the surface which could cause damage.
Final rinse
Start the final rinse at the bottom and work upward. Make sure the surface is thoroughly
rinsed and that al dirt is removed.
Shut down
Release the trigger.
Remove the water supply.
Warning: Do not turn the water supply off before turning the motor off. Serious damage could
occur.
Tips for extending the product's service life
Never operate unit without water.
Do not use the device with hot water.
