To bypass the pressure gauge, which prevents the machine starting
up without water pressure, a special adapter (GEKA on
compressed−air connection, not supplied) is used to connect to
compressed air instead of water.
"
Connect the adapter.
"
Open the air supply.
"
Run the machine for a maximum of 5 seconds.
å
Water is forced out of the pump.
"
Close the air supply.
"
Disconnect the adapter.
"
Open the bypass line to the GEKA connector and empty the
high−pr essure pump.
This method is used in the factory.
If the high−pressure cleaner is to be put out of service or into
storage, it has to be preserved beforehand, if required.
Note
Preservation of the high−pressure cleaner prevents corrosion and
premature ageing. It is necessary if the machine:
– is not used for longer periods;
– is exposed to corrosive atmospheres during storage or
transportation.
"
Preserve the machine with a suitable agent.
