Water Connection

WARNING: According to the applicable
regulations, the appliance must never be
used on the drinking water network
without a system seperator. Use a system
seperator as per IEC 61770 Type BA.
Water flowing through a system seperator is not
considered drinkable.
• Comply with the regulations of your water supply company.
• All connecting hoses must have properly sealed joints.
• Make sure the supply hose is at least 12.7 mm in diameter
and is reinforced.
• The appliance should never be used on the drinking water
supply without a backflow valve. Water that has passed the
backflow valve is considered undrinkable.
Cleaning a Surface (Fig. A)
1. To start the pressure washer, rotate the ON/OFF dial
the ON position.
2. Confirm that the water faucet is open or use any other
water source so that water will be supplied to the pressure
washer unit.
3. The best angle for spraying water against a cleaning surface
is 45 °.
Spraying head on tends to cause dirt particles to imbed
‑
in the surface.
‑ When working on vertical surfaces, it is best to apply
detergent starting at the bottom and working upwards
which will prevent the detergent from sliding down and
causing streaks.
4. To disengage the spray handle, release the trigger.
nOTE: Excessive pump pressure may be the result of a
clogged nozzle. Always turn OFF the pressure washer unit
and unplug the unit before attempting to unclog a nozzle.
Detergents (Fig. J1, J2, J3, J4)
For steps on attaching the detergent/soap bottle, please refer to
Attaching soap Bottle under Assembly and Adjustments.
The use of detergents can dramatically reduce cleaning time
and assist in the removal of difficult stains. Some detergents
have been customized for pressure washer use on specific
cleaning tasks.
The cleaning power of detergents comes from applying them to
a surface and giving the chemicals time to break down the dirt
and grime. Detergents work best when applied at low pressure.
The combination of chemical action and high pressure rinsing
is very effective.
On vertical surfaces, apply the detergent starting at the bottom
and work your way upward. This will prevent the detergent
from sliding down and causing streaks. High pressure rinsing
should also progress from the bottom to top. On particularly
tough stains, it may be necessary to use a brush in combination
with detergents and high pressure rinsing.
