WARNING!
Keep hose away from sharp objects.
Bursting hoses may cause injury. Examine hoses regularly and
replace if damaged. Do not attempt to mend a damaged hose.
12. Connect the garden hose adapter (female coupler) to
the water inlet of the pressure washer, then thread your
garden hose (male end) into the garden hose adapter
(Fig. 16). The garden hose must have an internal diameter
of at least 13 mm (1/2 in.) and must be reinforced. The
water supply must be at least equal to the washer delivery
capacity.
NOTE: The machine is not suitable for connection to the
potable water main.
13. Attach garden hose to water supply (Fig. 17).
m
WARNING!
The intake water temperature must not
exceed 104ºF/40ºC. The water supply must not exceed
0.7 MPa.
m
CAUTION!
The washer must only be used with clean
water; use of unfiltered water containing corrosive
chemicals will damage the washer.
14. Make sure the motor switch is pushed to the OFF (0)
position before plugging the unit into the power outlet
(Fig. 18).
15. Check that the electrical supply voltage and frequency
(Volt/Hz) correspond to those specified on the pressure
washer rating plate. If the power supply is correct, you
may now plug the pressure washer into the power outlet
(Fig. 19).
NOTE:
The GFCI may need to be reset when first plugged
into the electric outlet. Press the "Reset" button until the
power light indicator on the GFCI illuminates.
Operation
m
IMPORTANT!
This pressure washer is equipped with
a micro-switch sensitive to water flow. This Total Stop System
(TSS) senses water flow in the pump. When the trigger is
released, water stops flowing through the pump. The TSS then
automatically turns the motor off to protect the pump from
overheating, thus saving energy and prolonging pump life.
1. Turn the water supply tap on completely.
2. Make sure the safety lock is down and in its original
position (Fig. 20), then press the trigger for a few seconds
until water flow is steady. This will allow air to escape and
discharge any residual pressure in the hose.
