12.2 Protecting the pressure washer with antifreeze
If the pressure washer cannot be protected from frost during
transport or storage, the pressure washer should be
protected by a glycol-based antifreeze. The antifreeze
prevents water inside the pressure washer from freezing and
causing damage to the pressure washer.
► Remove spray lance
► Connect the shortest possible water hose to the pressure
washer.
The shorter the water hose, the less antifreeze is needed.
► Mix the antifreeze as described in the antifreeze
Instruction Manual.
