•  Ensure that all current-conducting components in the 

working area are protected against splashed water

•  Keep cord connections dry and off ground

•  Inspect the cord periodically and have it replaced by a 

qualified person, if damaged

•  Do not run over, crush or pull the (extension) cord

•  Protect the (extension) cord from heat, oil and sharp 

edges

•  Only use an extension cord which is intended for outdoor 

use and equipped with a watertight plug and coupling-

socket

•  Use completely unrolled and safe extension cords with a 

capacity of 16 Amps (U.K. 13 Amps)

•  Only use extension cords with a maximum length of 20 

metres (1,5 mm²) or 50 metres (2,5 mm²)

•  Inspect the extension cord periodically and replace it, if 

damaged (

inadequate extension cords can be 

dangerous

)

•  Never touch the mains plug with wet hands

•  Always switch off tool and disconnect plug from power 

source if the power supply cord or the extension cord is 

cut, damaged or entangled (

do not touch the cord 

before disconnecting the plug

)

•  When connecting a new plug, pay attention to the 

following (U.K. only):

-  plugs and sockets conforming to BS 4243 or BS 196 

should be used wherever practicable

-  domestic pattern plugs to BS 1363 are not 

recommended, but if their use is essential, those 

which have barriers or moulded channels inside 

should be selected, so that, if the earth continuity 

conductor is pulled out of its terminal, it is unlikely to 

be able to touch the phase terminal of the fuse carrier

-  domestic pattern plugs to BS 546 should not be used

-  the wiring of the plug should leave more slack in the 

earth continuity conductor than in the other cores, so 

that it is not the first core to be pulled out of its 

terminal, should the cord grip fail

-  plugs which have good grips capable of maintaining a 

firm hold on the cable sheath should be selected

-  in general, additional means should be provided to 

relieve stress on cable terminations in the plug (for 

example, additional cable clamps should be fitted or a 

substantial chain could be used to tether the machine 

to a fixed point)

-  plugs and sockets situated near the work site or 

outdoors should be to class IP 55 of BS 5490 to 

provide adequate protection against ingress of water, 

etc. and cable entries require effective sealing

-  rubber shrouds should be provided over cable glands

-  drip-proof (class IP X2 of BS 5490) plugs and sockets 

to BS 4343 are suitable for use indoors where the plug 

is away from the water spray area where the appliance 

is in use

USE

•  Assembly instructions 

6

-  the sequence of the numbers appearing in the drawing 

corresponds with the sequence of the steps to be 

followed for assembling the high-pressure washer

-  as a safety precaution press trigger lock A to avoid that 

trigger B is activated accidentally

•  Connection to water supply 

7

-  screw inlet connector C onto water inlet D

!  never use inlet connector C without water filter E

-  attach water supply hose (not supplied) to water tap 

and inlet connector C

! 

ensure that the temperature of the incoming water 

does not exceed 40°C

 (on a hot day run the water until 

it cools down before connecting to water tap)

•  Operating the tool 

8

-  ensure that the tool is placed on a solid base and in 

vertical position

-  connect the tool to the mains supply (ensure that 

mains switch F is in the off-position)

-  open water tap

-  press trigger lock A to release trigger B

-  fully press trigger B to release any trapped air from the 

tool or the water supply hose

-  release trigger B and press trigger lock A

-  switch on the tool by pressing button “I” of mains switch F

-  after switching on the motor starts running for a few 

seconds until maximum pressure is reached

-  press trigger lock A, point spraying nozzle G at the 

area to be washed and then pull trigger B

-  switch between a concentrated jet of water and a wide 

spray by turning nozzle G

-  upon release of trigger B the motor stops running after 

a few seconds when maximum pressure is reached

-  switch off the tool by pressing button “O” of mains 

switch F

-  close water tap

-  fully press trigger B until there is no more water 

pressure in the tool

-  after use press trigger lock A to avoid that trigger B is 

activated accidentally

-  disconnect plug from power source

-  disconnect water supply hose from tool and water tap

•  Use of detergent bottle 

9

!  ensure that trigger is locked and mains switch is 

in the off-position

-  unscrew bottle H from detergent nozzle J and fill it with 

biodegradable detergent suitable for high-pressure 

washer application (

the use of other detergents or 

chemicals may adversely affect the safety of the 

tool

)

!  do not use undiluted detergents

-  screw filled bottle H onto detergent nozzle J

-  remove lance K from hand gun L and mount detergent 

nozzle J instead as illustrated

-  press trigger lock A, point detergent nozzle J at the 

area to be washed and then pull trigger B

!  detergent does not come out under high pressure

APPLICATION ADVICE

•  When using detergent bottle H

!  read the detergent label for additional 

instructions

-  always wet the object first

-  apply detergent to the object from the bottom up

-  give the detergent time to work, but never leave it to dry

-  rinse from top and work downwards
