Connect a clean water supply pipe to
the water mains, checking to ensure that
the minimum pressure is of 1.5 bar and
maximum is of 6 bar, with a minimum
ow rate of 7 l per min.
- Connect the water supply pipe (min.
diam ½”) to the water mains (g.4)
- Screw the male connector (1 - Fig. 5) on to the at-
tachment of the water supply (2); snap the female
connector of the tube (3) on to the connector.
4 CONNECTION OF THE WATER SUPPLY PIPE
Based on the prescriptions and provi-
sions set forth by the regulations currently
in force, it is mandatory that the appliance
is never operated without a potable water
backow preventer device, connected up to the
potable water supply mains. Use a suitable potable
water backow preventer device, compliant to the
EN 12729 type BA standard provisions. Water that
ows through a system backow preventer cannot
be classied as potable water.
5 HIGH PRESSURE PIPE CONNECTION
- Unwind the pressure hose o󰀨 the hose drum (Fig.
6).
- Screw the high pressure tube on to the gun
(Fig.7).
Assembly of the detergent spraying device
- Insert the nozzle and tighten the threaded locking
ring on the gun. (Fig. 8).
6 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION OF THE AP-
PLIANCE
The mains voltage must match the operating volta-
ge. (See identication plate)
Insert the plug into a power socket installed in
compliance with regulations.
Check the minimum section of the individual cables
using extensions.
Position the extensions so as to maintain the pro-
tection class of the equipment.

7 APPLIANCE ACTIVATION
Operate the equipment in vertical po-
sition (g.9) only after connecting the
water supply pipe and turning on the tap.
- Position the switch on I (ON) (Fig.10).
- Position the spray gun on the object to be
cleaned - never on people !
- Press the safety device (1-Fig.11) - the gun is
released
- Direct the nozzle downwards (Fig.9)
- Fully press down the trigger (2 Fig.11)
8 SWITCHING OFF THE MACHINE
- Position the switch on O (OFF) (Fig.10).
- Turn o󰀨 water supply tap.
- Actuate spray gun until water drips from the
nozzle (machine is now de-pressurized).
- Release trigger.
- Press safety latch on spray gun. (1 Fig.11). The
spray gun is locked and cannot be actuated
accidentally.
- Unplug machine from socket outlet.
- Disconnect water supply hose from machine and
water supply mains.
9 ACCESSORIES
Variable nozzle
The nozzle (12 - Fig.1) can be regulated in a
continuous manner, by rotating the regulation
bushing, changing it from a pinhole jet (Fig.12) to
a at jet and viceversa.
It can be used at either high or low pressure by
shifting the head in a longitudinal sense according to
the direction of the arrow on the head itself (Fig. 13).
ADDITION OF DETERGENT
The detergents must not be allowed to
dry on the object to be cleaned.
The product is fitted with two detergent tanks.
Thedetergent adjustment knob (Fig. 15) is used to
switch thesuction between detergent tanks (Fig. 16)
and increase/de-crease detergent ow.
Fill the machine tanks with detergent (Fig. 14) taking
care to dilute it according to the instructions. To fa-
cilitate the lling and emptying operations, the tanks
can be removed from their housings.
Winder kit
The rotation sense for the winding of the high pres-
sure hose is only permitted in a clockwise direction.
(g. 17). It is possible to prevent rotation by using the
lever (1) situated on the back of the handle (Fig. 18)
REGULATING PRESSURE
This chapter concerns only those models pro-
vided with the “pressure regulating” device.
The pressure regulator, g. 20, allows the operator
to adjust the working pressure. When knob C is
turned in an anti-clockwise direction (B) (minimum),
the working pressure is reduced.
10 MAINTENANCE , REPAIRS AND STORAGE
Before undertaking any work
on the appliance always de-
tachthe plug from the power
socket
Undertake only the maintenance operations descri-
bed in the user instructions.
