Clean the nozzles.
nect the electrical plug from the
socket prior to maintenance or
cleaning.
To ensure a long and problem
free working life, please take
the following advice:
Any repair should always be
made in an authorized work-
shop with original spare parts.
Wash out water hose, high
pressure hose, spray lance
and accessories before
mounting.
6.1 Cleaning of water inlet
filter
Clean the water inlet filter
regularly once a month or more
frequently according to use.
Carefully loosen the filter with a
screwdriver and clean it. Check
that it is intact before re-mount-
ing it.
The inlet filter must always be
fitted inside the water inlet pipe
to filter out sand, limestone and
other impurities, as they will
damage the pump valves.
CAUTION: Failure to fit the filter
will invalidate the guarantee.
6.2 Cleaning of nozzle
A clogging up in the nozzle
causes a pump pressure which
is too high. This is why cleaning
is required immediately.
1. Stop the machine and dis-
connect the nozzle.
2. Clean the nozzle. IMPOR-
TANT: The cleaning tool (12)
should only be used when
the nozzle is detached!
3. Flush the nozzle backwards
with water.
