only when the power cord is in  
a safe condition. (risk of electric  
shock using damaged cord!).  
Transport  
Check the rated voltage of the  
high-pressure cleaner before  
connecting it to the mains power  
supply. Ensure that the voltage  
shown on the rating plate cor-  
responds to the voltage of the  
power supply.  
We strongly recommend that the  
power supply to the high pres-  
sure cleaner be connected via a  
residual current circuit breaker.  
This device stops the supply of  
electricity if the leakage current  
to the ground exceeds 30 mA for  
30 ms or it has an ground tester  
circuit.  
For your own safety  
Transport of the high-pressure  
cleaner is easy on its large  
wheels.  
The high-pressure cleaner  
should only be used by author-  
ized persons who have been  
instructed in its use.  
For safe transport in and on ve-  
hicles we recommend preventing  
the equipment from sliding and  
tilting. Secure it with tie-downs  
and apply the parking brake on  
the castor wheel.  
Although extremely easy to  
operate, children should not be  
allowed to use the cleaner.  
For transport at temperatures  
around or below freezing 0°C  
(32°F), anti-freeze should be  
drawn into the pump beforehand  
(see chapter 6).  
General  
Use of the high-pressure cleaner  
is subject to the applicable local  
regulations.  
Please observe the regulations  
and provisions applicable in your  
area. Before putting the high-  
pressure cleaner into service,  
carry out a visual check of all  
the major components.  
Besides the operating instruc-  
tions and the binding accident  
prevention regulations valid in  
the country of use, observe rec-  
ognized regulations for safety  
and proper use.  
Before starting the cleaner  
Before use, check that the high-  
pressure cleaner is safe and in  
proper condition.  
Regularly check whether the  
power cord is damaged or shows  
signs of ageing.

The cleaner conforms to the Ger-  
man „Guidelines for Liquid Spray  
Jet Devices“. The high-pressure  
cleaner must be subjected to a  
safety examination in accord-  
ance with the „Accident Preven-  
tion Regulations for Working  
with Liquid Spray Jet Devices“  
as required, but at least every  
12 months, by an authorised  
inspector.  
Never spray electrical equip-  
ment with water: risk of elect-  
trical shock and short-circuit.  
Do not clean delicate parts  
made of rubber, fabric, etc. with  
the 0° jet. Keep some distance  
between high pressure nozzle  
and surface in order to prevent  
the surface from damage.  
The cleaner may only be con-  
nected to a correctly installed  
plug socket.  
Switching on the cleaner may  
cause voltage fluctuations.  
Voltage fluctuations should not  
occur if the impedance at the  
transfer point is less than 0.15:ꢀꢁ  
If in doubt ask your local electric-  
ity supplier.  
Do not use the high-pressure  
hose for lifting loads.  
NOTE!  
After all repairs or modifications  
to electrical equipment, the pro-  
tective conductor resistance, the  
insulation resistance and the leak-  
age current must be measured.  
Furthermore, a visual inspection  
of the mains power lead, a volt-  
age and current measurement  
and a function test must be car-  
ried out. Our after-sales service  
technicians are at your disposal  
as authorised inspectors.  
The maximum permissible work-  
ing pressure and temperature  
are printed on the high-pressure  
hose.  
Maintenance and repair  
Do not use the cleaner if the  
power cord or high-pressure  
hose is damaged.  
CAUTION!  
Always remove the plug from  
the power supply before clean-  
ing or carrying out mainte-  
nance work on the cleaner.  
Ensure adequate air circulation.  
Do not cover the cleaner or oper-  
ate it in inadequately ventilated  
rooms!

5 Applications and methods  
5.1 Techniques  
Efficient high pressure cleaning is achieved by following a few guide-  
lines, combined with your own personal experience of specific clean-  
ing tasks. Accessories and detergents, when correctly chosen, can  
increase the efficiency of your pressure washer. Here is some basic  
information about cleaning.  
Encrusted or thick layers of dirt can be loosened or softened up by a  
period of soaking.This is for example an ideal method within agricul-  
ture – for example, within pig sties.The ideal soaking method can be  
achieved by using foam or simple alkaline detergent. Let the product  
lie on the dirty surfaces for about 30 minutes before pressure washing.  
The result will be a much quicker high pressure cleaning process.  
5.1.1 Soaking  
Foam or detergent should be applied onto dry surfaces so that the  
chemical product is in direct contact with the dirt. Detergents are ap-  
plied from bottom to top, for example on a automobile bodywork, in  
order to avoid “super clean” areas, where the detergent may collect  
in higher concentrations and streams downwards. Let the detergent  
work for several minutes before rinsing before rinsing and never let  
it dry on the surface being cleaned.  
5.1.2 Detergent and Foam  
5.1.3 Temperature  
Detergents are more effective at higher temperatures. Greases, oils  
and fats can be broken down more effectively at higher temperatures  
also.Proteins can be cleaned at temperatures of around 60°C (140°F).  
Oils and traffic film around 70°C (158°F), and grease can be cleaned  
at 80°-90°C (176-194°F).  
5.1.4 Mechanical Effect  
In order to break down tough layers of dirt, additional mechanical  
effect may be required. Special lances and rotary or wash brushes  
offer this supplementary effect that cuts through dirt.  
5.1.5 High Water Flow or  
High Pressure  
High pressure is not always the best solution and may also damage  
surfaces. The cleaning effect also depends upon water flow. Pres-  
sure levels of around 100 bar (1450 psi) may be sufficient for vehicle  
cleaning (in association with hot water) and higher flow levels give  
the ability to rinse and flush away large amounts of dirt easily.

with a product such as Allosil in order to remove traces  
of insects etc, then rinse at low pressure and apply  
normal car cleaning detergent. Let detergents settle  
for 5 minutes before cleaning off.Metallic surfaces can  
be cleaned using RimTop.  
2. Proceed with cleaning using the high pressure lance.  
Clean again from bottom to top. Use accessories to  
clean in difficult to reach places. Use brushes in order  
to add a mechanical cleaning effect.Short lances can  
help for cleaning of motors and wheel arches. Curved  
lances or undercarriage washers can be valuable for  
the cleaning of car underchassis and wheel arches.
