Water connection
Please check whether the water flow (litres per minute)
stated on page 51 (Technical Data) is available to the high
pressure cleaner.
Check: Allow the water feed hose to run into a bucket for
1 minute. The water flow must match the specification on
page 3 at a minimum!
A lack of water causes rapid wear on the seal
(not covered by warranty).
