Thermal pressure relief valve
If the engine is running in standby mode 
without active spraying, the water in the 
high-pressure pump heats up to 60 °C 
(140 °F). The thermal pressure relief 
valve automatically lets the hot water 
escape from the high-pressure pump so 
that fresh and cool water can flow into 
the system.
Pressure/quantity control on the 
machine
The working pressure and water flow 
rate can be adjusted on the high-
pressure pump.
N Turn the knob clockwise (+) to 
increase the working pressure and 
water flow rate
N Turn the knob counterclockwise (-) 
to reduce the working pressure and 
water flow rate
Use the detergent suction hose to draw 
detergent from a separate container. 
The detergent is added to the water in 
the high-pressure pump:
N Add the detergent to a separate 
container and dilute it with water at 
the ratio specified by the detergent 
manufacturer
N Push the pickup body (1) as far as 
possible into the container
N Connect the black 65° nozzle to the 
spray lance
Detergent can only be used with the low-
pressure, 65° nozzle (black).
N When applying detergent, start at 
the bottom and work upwards
For best results, never allow the 
detergent to dry on the surface to be 
cleaned. Read and follow the detergent 
manufacturer's warnings and 
instructions regarding proper use.
Cleaning the pickup body, hose and 
injector
Each time after working with a 
detergent, run clean water through the 
pump to clean the hose and other 
components of the pressure washer.
N Immerse the pickup body in clean, 
detergent-free water
N Actuate the spray gun for 
approx. 5 seconds to draw clean 
water through the hose
