the machine to another function. • Observe the national safety regulations issued, for example, by the employers liability insurance association, social security institutions, occupational safety and health authorities or other organizations. Accessories and spare parts • To ensure the machine safety only use original spare parts from Nilfisk or approved by Nilfisk. • High pressure hoses, fittings and couplings are important for the safety of the machine.
• Wear shoes with non-slip soles. • Wear goggles, ear protection and protective clothes during operation. Transporting the high pressure washer • When transporting the machine in or on a vehicle, it must be secured, e.g. with straps, so that it cannot slip or tip over. • Nilfisk recommends that the machine is positioned horizontally on the backside, when transported in or on a vehicle. Detergents • This machine has been designed for use with cleaning agents supplied or recommended by Nilfisk.
• • • • • • 60364-1. It is recommended that the electrical supply to the machine should include a residual current device that will interrupt the supply if the leakage current to earth exceeds 30 mA for 30 ms. Due to the high power of the machine - use motor start / delayed fuses with characteristic D according to IEC947-2 or corresponding standards outside IEC. Inadequate extension cables can be dangerous.
Safety devices Locking device on spray handle: • The spray handle features a locking device. When the pawl is activated, the spray handle cannot be operated. Thermal sensor: • A thermal sensor protects the motor against overloading. The machine will restart after a few minutes when the thermal sensor has cooled. Pressure safety device: • An integrated hydraulic safety valve protects the system from excessive pressure.
After finishing the work WARNING! • Always switch off the machine and unplug the power plug from the socket after work and when leaving the machine unattended. • Disconnect water inlet hose between machine and water supply. • Always empty pump, hose and accessories of water after use of the machine and prior to storing. Maintenance and repairs WARNING! • Always disconnect the electrical plug from the socket prior to maintenance, cleaning and repair.
3 Description 3.1 Application This high-pressure washer has been developed for semiprofessional routine cleaning: Only use the high-pressure washer for purposes described in this manual. - Professional craftsman jobs, cleaning of vehicles, boat, caravan and minor cleaning jobs within building and construction The safety precautions must be observed to prevent damage to the machine, the surface to be cleaned or severe personal injuries.
4 Before you start using your pressure washer 4.1 Mounting of holders for spray lance Mount the holders for spray lance on the machine. 4.2 Mounting of hose hook (only models without hose reel) Mount the hose hook (14) on the handle (2 screws).

Release the trigger lock. 3. Activate the trigger of the spray handle and let the water run until all air has escaped from the high pressure hose. 4.
T and XT models: 4-in-1 spray lance The pressure can be regulated on the 4-in-1 spray lance. Low Pressure / detergent 20° Tornado / high pressure 65° Wide angle / high pressure Turbohammer / high pressure 5.8 Operation with detergents Application of detergents is NOT possible if an extension hose is applied. 1. Fill the container with a detergent. 2. Mount the Flexopower Plus spray lance and adjust it to low pressure. Turn the 4-in-1 nozzle to pos Low Pressure/ Detergent (see section 5.7). 3.
5.9 Regulation of pressure / water volume (only models with button for regulation of pressure and water volume) Working pressure and water volume can be regulated on the machine by turning the button for regulation of pressure / water volume (6). 6 Fields of application and working methods 16 6.1 General Efficient high pressure cleaning is achieved by following a few guidelines, combined with your own personal experience of specific cleaning tasks.
7 After using your pressure washer 7.1 Storing the washer 7.2 Winding up of electric cable and high pressure hose The machine should be stored in a frost-free room! Pump, hose and accessories should always be emptied of water prior to storing as follows: 1. Stop the machine (turn the start/stop switch (1) to position “O” and detach water hose and accessory. 2.
