Care and Maintenance
Care and Maintenance
Care and maintenance is required to keep the machine in good working order, and
to allow you to enjoy the machine for as long as possible.
IMPORTANT!!!
Always remove the plug before working on the machine!
What to do!
- Weekly, or after approx. 40 hours of operation
Check the oil level of the high pressure pump.
Loosen the red oil stopper on the high pressure pump and pull out the oil
measuring rod.
If the oil level is too low, add oil until the oil level is between the two markings on
the oil measuring rod.
Change the oil if it has a grey or whitish appearance. The oil should be
disposed of responsibly.
Check the filter in front of the float valve in the water tank and the fuel filter
in front of the solenoid valve. Clean the filters if necessary.
- Yearly, or after approx. 500 hours of operation
Desulphurise and decarbonize the heating coil.
Check the oil burner and ignition system
Clean the oil nozzle, oil filter, soenoid valve and filter, clean and adjust the
ignition transformer, ignition cable and ignition electrodes and replace defective parts
Changing the oil
Anti-Freeze Protection
The machine is normally still partially filled with water after work has been completed. It
is therefore necessary to take special precautions to protect the machine from frost.
- Completely empty the machine of water.
Disconnect the machine from the water supply and switch off the ignition.
Switch on the master switch and open the gun. The pump now presses the
remaining water out of the heating coil. Do not allow the machine to run for
longer than a miniute without water.
- Fill the machine with anti-freeze
If the machine is not in use for lengthy periods of time, it is advisable to
pump anti-freeze into the machine, especially in winter.
For this purpose, fill the anti-
freeze agent into the water box and turn on the machine without ignition (rocker
switch to „0“). Wait with opened gun, until the agent comes from the nozzle.
However, the best protection against frost is to keep
the machine in a place that is safe from frost.
