2. Sikkerhedsoplysninger
Always observe basic safety precautions when using electrical appliances to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury. This pressure washer is intended for outdoor use only.
- Elektrisk sikkerhed: Sørg for, at strømforsyningen matcher voltage specified on the product label. Use a residual current device (RCD) for added protection. Do not operate the appliance with a damaged cord or plug.
- Vandtilslutning: Connect the pressure washer to a cold water supply only. Ensure all hose connections are secure to prevent leaks.
- Personligt beskyttelsesudstyr: Brug altid passende øjenbeskyttelse (sikkerhedsbriller) og beskyttelsestøj, når du bruger højtryksrenseren.
- Fare for højt tryk: The high-pressure jet can be dangerous if misused. Never direct the water jet at people, pets, electrical equipment, or the appliance itself.
- Børn og tilskuere: Hold børn og omkringstående væk fra betjeningsområdet.
- Kemikalier: When using detergents or chemicals with the foam cannon, follow the manufacturer's instructions for the chemical and ensure proper ventilation.
3. Opsætning og montering
Follow these steps to prepare your pressure washer for first use:
- Udpak komponenter: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Verify that all accessories listed in the product description are present.
- Attach Wheels (if not pre-assembled): Secure the wheels to the base of the unit as per the diagrams in the physical manual. The unit is designed for easy maneuverability.
- Tilslut vandindløb: Attach a standard garden hose (not included) to the water inlet connector on the pressure washer. Ensure the connection is tight.
- Tilslutning af højtryksslange: Connect one end of the high-pressure hose to the outlet on the pressure washer and the other end to the spray gun.
- Fastgør lanse og dyse: Select the desired lance (e.g., Vario or Turbo nozzle) and attach it to the spray gun. For detergent application, attach the foam cannon.
- Strømtilslutning: Plug the power cord into a suitable outdoor electrical outlet with RCD protection.

4. Betjeningsvejledning
Før du starter, skal du sørge for, at alle forbindelser er sikre, og at vandforsyningen er tændt.
- Udluftning: Squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to allow water to flow through the system and expel any trapped air. Continue until a steady stream of water emerges.
- Start motoren: Turn the pressure washer's power switch to the "ON" position. The motor will start and build pressure.
- Adjust Nozzle (Vario Nozzle): If using the Vario nozzle, twist it to adjust the spray pattern from a wide fan to a concentrated jet, or to a low-pressure setting for detergent application.
- Using the Turbo Nozzle: The Turbo nozzle provides a rotating jet for aggressive cleaning of tough dirt on hard surfaces. Do not use on delicate surfaces.
- Brug af skumkanonen:
- Fill the foam cannon reservoir with appropriate pressure washer detergent.
- Fastgør skumkanonen til sprøjtepistolen.
- Apply detergent to the surface at low pressure. Allow it to soak as recommended by the detergent manufacturer.
- Rinse the surface thoroughly with clean water using a high-pressure nozzle.
- Rengøringsteknikker:
- Always start cleaning from a distance and move closer to the surface as needed to avoid damage.
- Work from top to bottom to allow gravity to assist in rinsing away dirt and detergent.
- For vehicles, use a wide fan spray and avoid directing the jet directly at sensitive components like tires, mirrors, or electrical parts.
