6. AFTER USING YOUR PRESSURE WASHER
6.1 Storing the washer
The machine should be stored in a frost-free room!
Pump, hose and accessories should always be emptied of water prior to storing as follows:
I. Stop the machine (press the ON/OFF switch “O” (1) and detach water hose and accessory.
II. Restart the machine and activate the trigger. Let the machine run until no more water runs through the
spray gun.
III. Stop the machine, unplug and wind up hose and power cord.
IV. Place spray handle, nozzles and other accessories in the holders of the machine.
Should the machine by mistake be frozen, it will be necessary to check it for damage.
NEVER START-UP A FROZEN MACHINE.
Frost damages are not covered by the guarantee!
6.2 Winding up of power cord and high pressure hose
To avoid accidents, the power cord and the high pressure hose should always be winded carefully up
around the handle. Wind up the power cord on the appropriate hook.
6.3 Storage of accessories
The spray gun and lance can be stored on the pressure washer.
7. MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Always disconnect the electrical plug from the socket prior to maintenance or
cleaning. To ensure a long and problem free working life, please take the following advice:
_ Wash out water hose, high pressure hose, spray lance and accessories before mounting.
_ Clean the connectors of dust and sand.
_ Rinse the detergent spraying attachment after use.
_ Clean the nozzles.
Any repair should always be made in an authorized workshop with original spare parts.
7.1 Cleaning of water inlet filter
Clean the water inlet filter regularly once a month or more frequently, according to use.
Carefully loosen the filter with a screwdriver and clean it. Check that it is intact before re-mounting it.
The inlet filter must always be fitted inside the water inlet pipe to filter out sand, limestone and other
impurities, as they will damage the pump valves.
CAUTION: Failure to fit the filter will invalidate the guarantee.
7.2 Cleaning of nozzle
A clogging up in the nozzle causes a pump pressure which is too high. This is why cleaning is required
immediately.
I. Stop the machine and disconnect the nozzle.
II. Clean the nozzle.
IMPORTANT: The cleaning tool should only be used when the nozzle is detached!
III. Flush the nozzle backwards with water.
