Safety valve

This appliance is equipped with a safety valve that
prevents undue overpressure. When the trigger is
released, the valve opens and the water recirculates
through the pump inlet.
CAUTION:
Do not tamper with or adjust the
safety valve setting.
Supplying water from a tank/
reservoir
You can supply water from a tank or reservoir instead
of a faucet.
Replace the water hose connector with the suction hose
set. When connecting the suction hose set, disconnect
the filter case from the hose and attach the filter case to
the inlet of the high pressure washer. Then, connect the
hose to the filter case.
NOTE: When removing/connecting the hose from/to
the filter case, turn the sleeve while holding the hose
so that the hose does not rotate with the sleeve.
