pressure (on models with this feature).
f Adjusting the pressure (on models with this feature)
The regulator (10) is used to adjust the working
pressure. The pressure is shown on the pressure
gauge (where fitted).
USE OF THE APPLIANCE (Fig. D)
CONTROLS
Starter device (Fig. D)
Set the starter switch on (ON/I) to:
a. Start the motor (In models without TSS device);
b. Set the motor ready to start (In models with TSS device).
Note: If there is a pilot light on the starter device, it should
light up.
If the "Low/High" settings are available, use them as follows:
Low: Low pressure washing
High: High pressure washing
Set the starter device switch on (OFF/0) to shut down the
appliance.
If there is a pilot light on the starter device, it should go out.
f Water jet control lever (11).
Caution! During operation the appliance must be
positioned as shown in Fig. D on a sturdy, stable surface.
Start-up
1. Turn on the water supply tap fully.
2. Release the safety catch (12).
3. Depress the gun trigger for a few seconds and start
up the appliance using the starter device (ON/I).
Caution! Before starting up the appliance check that
the water supply hose is connected properly; use of the
appliance without water will damage it; do not cover the
ventilation grilles when the appliance is in use.
TSS Models - In TSS models with automatic delivery flow
cut-o system:
a. When the gun trigger is released the dynamic
pressure automatically cuts out the motor (see Fig. D);
b. When the gun trigger is depressed the automatic
drop in pressure starts the motor and the pressure
is restored after a very slight delay;
c. If the TSS is to function correctly all gun releasing
and depressing operations must be performed at
intervals of not less than 4 - 5 seconds at least.
On three-phase models for professional use: at first use,
start the appliance for a very short time to check that the
motor is running in the correct direction. If the motor fan is
turning anti-clockwise, exchange two of the three phase
wires (L1, L2, L3) in the electrical plug.
Note: To prevent damage to the appliance, do not allow
it to oper- ate dry and when running do not stop the water
jet for more than 10 minutes at a time (for models without
TSS device).
Stopping the appliance
1. Set the starter device switch on (OFF/0).
2. Depress the gun trigger and discharge the residual
pressure inside the hoses.
3. Engage the gun safety catch (9).
Restarting
1. Release the safety catch (9).
2. Depress the gun trigger and discharge the residual
air inside the hoses.
3. Set the starter device on (ON/I).
Storage
1. Switch the appliance off (OFF/0).
2. Remove the plug from the socket.
3. Turn o the water supply tap.
4. Discharge the residual pressure from the gun until
all the water has come out of the nozzle.
5. Drain and wash out the detergent tank at the end of
the working session. To wash out the tank, use clean
water instead of the detergent.
6. Engage the gun safety catch (9).
Relling and using detergent
When using detergent, the adjustable nozzle must be set
on "
" (on models with this feature).
Use of a high pressure hose longer than the one originally
supplied with the cleaner, or the use of an additional hose
extension, may reduce or completely halt the intake of
detergent. Fill the tank with highly degradable detergent.
Recommended cleaning procedure
Dissolve dirt by applying the detergent mixed with water
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 30cm. 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 finest adjustable nozzle jet setting or the
rotopower nozzle should not be used on delicate or
painted parts, or on pressurised components (e.g tyres,
inflation valves, etc.). Effective washing depends on both
the pressure and volume of the water used, to the same degree.
