Connect GREEN & YELLOW coloured cord to plug terminal marked with a letter E or Earth symbol .

Connect BROWN coloured cord to plug terminal marked letter L

Connect BLUE coloured cord to plug terminal marked letter N

We strongly recommend that this machine is connected to the mains supply through a Residual Current Device (RCD).

FUSE RATING

The fuse in the plug for this appliance must be rated at 13 amps

IMPORTANT: If this appliance is fitted with a plug which is moulded onto the electric cable (i.e. non-rewirable) :

1. The plug must be thrown away if it is cut from the electric cable. There is a danger of electric shock if it is subsequently inserted into a live socket outlet.

2. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.

3. Should you wish to replace a detachable fuse carrier, ensure that the correct replacement is used (as indicated by marking or colour code).

4. Replacement fuse covers can be obtained from your local dealer or most electrical stockists.

5. The fuse in the plug must be replaced with one of the same rating (13 amps) and this replacement must be approved to BS1362.

EXTENSION CABLES

If an extension cable is used, always ensure it is fully unwound. When used outdoors, ensure the extension cable is specifically designed for outdoor use.

The maximum extension length is 25 metres. Ensure that the wire sizes in the cable is at least 1.5mm2 in cross section. As a general rule, the extension cable must be thicker than the cable supplied with the washer.

ASSEMBLY AND PREPARATION FOR USE.

5

A. High Pressure Hose (2)

At one end of the hose is a spigot, fitted with an O-ring. Push this end firmly into the water inlet port of the handle and lance assembly, and insert the Hose Securing Clip (Spare Parts list, item 9), ensuring it is fully home. It is correctly fitted when the U bend of the clip sits snugly in the groove provided, allowing the protecting shroud to be pushed over the connection until it clicks into place.

Remove the plastic travel cap from the threaded high pressure outlet (6), and screw on the high pressure hose (2) firmly.

B. Lance Extension (3)

At the opposite end to the nozzle (4) is a spigot (5) with two integral lugs, and a rubber O-ring. Ensure the O-ring is in place and in good condition.

Insert the spigot end of the lance extension into the trigger/handle assembly (1). Push home firmly and twist to lock it in position. DO NOT attempt to disassemble the trigger/handle assembly.

NOTE: When new, the lance extension may be a tight fit and a little lubrication, with vaseline or similar, will assist when joining the parts together.

C. Water Supply Hose

Remove the temporary travel cap from the threaded inlet port (7), on the front of the unit.

IMPORTANT: Check to ensure that the filter is correctly located inside the inlet port

Screw on the Inlet Hose Adapter, ensuring the rubber sealing ring is in place. This connection must be tight to avoid leaks.

Attach a suitable 1/2 hose to the inlet hose adapter (6), using a standard type snap-on connector (not supplied), available from all good DIY and Hardware Stores.

Secure the other end of the hose to your tap using a suitable tap adaptor (not supplied)

Cold or hot water (up to 50C) can be used.

NOTE:

1. In some areas, it may be necessary to ensure that you comply with local bylaws concerning the use of water from the mains supply, and the disposal of possibly contaminated water.

2. Hose, worm drive clips and other accessories are readily available from all good DIY, Hardware and Garden Supplies Stores.

OPERATION

1. Make certain the ON/OFF switch, located on the rear panel of the unit, is set in the OFF position.

2. Connect the plug to the mains supply, preferably via a Residual Current Device.

3. Turn the water tap fully on. Remember - NEVER attempt to run the machine with the water supply disconnected, or turned off.

When starting, you should always adopt the following procedure:

In order to ease the starting process, and to prevent the possibility of blown fuses, pull the trigger on the lance and hold in that position whilst switching the motor ON and allowing the pump to develop full pressure.

NOTE: It may be necessary to release the safety latch in order to release the trigger, by pushing the button, on the right side of the trigger assembly, IN.

You may release the trigger once full pressure is developed. When you do so, the motor will continue run, and the bypass will come into effect, accompanied by a noticeable change in motor noise.

As soon as you pull the trigger again, the bypass will close and water at pressure will be ejected.

WARNING

ENSURE THE OPERATOR IS AWARE THAT WHEN THE TRIGGER IS PULLED, WATER AT HIGH PRESSURE CAN CAUSE THE LANCE TO KICK

- IT SHOULD THEREFORE BE HELD FIRMLY.

IN ADDITION, CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO ENSURE THAT THE NOZZLE IS NOT AIMED AT AN AREA WHERE THE WATER JET WILL CAUSE DAMAGE.

i.e. AWAY FROM PEOPLE, ANIMALS, WINDOWS - GREENHOUSES ETC., AND BE AWARE THAT SPLASH BACK COULD ALSO CAUSE DAMAGE IF THE JET IS

TRAINED ON A NEARBY WALL ETC.

6

IMPORTANT: NEVER run the machine off load for long periods, (greater than 1 minute), without pulling the trigger, as damage to the pump will eventually occur.

A fan or pencil spray is possible by twisting the nozzle as shown in the diagram.

Pump pressure is factory set and cannot be adjusted. A pressure of 100bar is sufficient to blast off dirt and grime from patios and brickwork with ease.

To reduce water pressure at the nozzle and to give a wider distribution of water for rinsing etc., turn the nozzle to produce a fan spray

When you have finished with the machine you should shut down using the following procedure:

1. Switch OFF using the switch mounted on the rear panel of the machine.

2. Disconnect from the mains electrical supply.

2. Turn OFF the water supply at the mains.

3. For safety, pull the trigger to relieve any pressure in the system.

4. Disconnect from the water supply.

5. Disconnect the inlet and high pressure hoses and allow to drain.

6. If the detergent adapter has been used, rinse it thoroughly with clean water. Store in a dry, frost free location, not exposed to the elements.

CHEMICAL CLEANING AGENTS

To improve cleaning qualities, it is possible to introduce chemical cleaning agents (detergents) into the spray using the foam attachment. This is particularly useful for washing cars, greasy engine parts, removing oil spots on concrete etc. Use ONLY those detergents recommended for use with power washers, such as TRAFFIC FILM REMOVER which is a powerful low foaming agent for car cleaning, patio cleaning etc., or WASH & WAX, both available from Machine Mart.

To prepare for detergent application, ensure the trigger safety latch is set to prevent the trigger from being pulled accidentally.

Push the detergent attachment, firmly on to the end of the nozzle until you hear or feel it lock into place.

With the container filled with detergent, screw it on to the detergent attachment ensuring the plastic pickup tube is in place.

Twist the lance nozzle to select a fan spray which will provide better distribution of the detergent. Release the trigger safety latch and pull the trigger to spray the detergent on to the vehicle, patio etc., and allow it to work itself into the grime.

8

Bucket containing antifreeze

On top of the foam attachment is a yellow knob with a serrated edge, which can be turned clockwise or anticlockwise to adjust the amount of detergent allowed into the water jet. Turn the knob clockwise to reduce the amount and anticlockwise to increase.

To rinse and clean, set the trigger safety latch, and remove the foam attachment as follows:

Pull DOWN on the locking latch, in the direction of the arrow, as shown in the diagram, and pull the attachment away from the nozzle.

Release the trigger safety latch and pull the trigger to blast off the dirt.

After using the detergent attachment, rinse it, together with the container, thoroughly with clean water.

IMPORTANT: Ensure you read and comply with the manufacturers instructions regarding the use of chemical detergents.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Ensure the plug is removed from the socket before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.

After each use

If cleaning agents have been used, thoroughly clean the detergent attachment and bottle with clean water.

Storage

Store in an horizontal position.

If there is a danger of freezing, insert the inlet and outlet hoses into a bucket of antifreeze as shown in the diagram, start the machine and allow the antifreeze to circulate. After a short time stop the machine, and store with the antifreeze still within the pump body.

NOTE:

If you experience difficulty in starting the motor following a long period of storage, it is possible that the seals within the pump have dried out and are gripping the pistons. This problem may be alleviated by storing the machine with antifreeze within the pump body, as described above. If the seals are stuck however, disconnect the machine from the electrical and water supplys, and proceed to free them as follows:

9

Insert a screwdriver into the slot provided in the centre of the fan, which is at the rear of the machine, visible through the grille. Turn the fan with the screwdriver to free the seals.

Water inlet filter

Located behind the inlet Hose Adapter, this filter should be removed for cleaning after every 10 hours of use (or less if water is contaminated).

Remove the filter by unscrewing the inlet hose adapter and withdrawing the filter element.

Clean the element with fresh water. To replace, reverse the above procedure, ensuring that the inlet hose adapter seal is in place.
