WARNING
• If you have to interrupt the high pressure jet and put the spray gun down, without stopping the machine,
you have to insert the safety stop(32). Operation S in Fig.6.
STOP
• Close the water supply tap or take the suction hose out of the tank.
• Drain the water from the high pressure cleaner, working it for a few seconds with the spray gun lever(33)
pressed.
• Carry out the stop operations, explained in the engine operating and maintenance manual and
disconnect the spark plug contact (petrol engines without electrical start-up) or take the ignition key
out(43) (Diesel engines and petrol engines with electrical start-up).
• Discharge any residual pressure from the high pressure hose(30), keeping the spray gun lever(33)
pressed for a few seconds.
• Wait for the high pressure cleaner to cool down.
DECOMMISSIONING
• Carefully rewind the high pressure hose(30) without making any kinks in it.
• Follow the instructions for decommissioning as given in the engine operating and maintenance manual.
• The high pressure cleaner must be kept in a dry, clean place paying attention not to damage the high
pressure hose. Use the rack (9) to store the delivery hose and accessories. Engage the brake (41) to
avoid any uncontrolled movements of the machine (FDX ENDURANCE).
NOTE: after a prolonged period of non-use you could nd a few drops of water under the pump. This
dripping normally disappears after a few hours of use. If it does persist however, contact a Specialized
Technician.
