 Route the new high-pressure hose
through the intended hose guide and
the deflection pulley at the bottom of the
appliance.
 Slide the hose nipple all the way into the
knot section of the hose drum and se-
cure with the fastening clamp.
 Replace the half bowl.

Water connection

For connection values refer to technical
specifications
 Attach supply hose (minimum length
7.5 m, minimum diameter 3/4") to the
water supply set by means of a hose
clamp.
 Connect the supply hose to the water
connection point of the machine and at
the water supply point (for e.g. a tap).
Note: The supply hose and the hose clamp
are not included in the scope of delivery.

Suck in water from vessel

If you want to suck in water from an exter-
nal vessel, the following modification is
necessary:

Danger
Never suck in water from a drinking water
container. Never suck in liquids which con-
tain solvents like lacquer thinner, petrol, oil
or unfiltered water. The sealings within the
device are not solvent resistant. The spray
mist of solvents is highly inflammable, ex-
plosive and poisonous.

Power connection

For connection values, see technical
–
data and type plate.
The electrical connections must be
–
done by an electrician according to IEC
60364-1.
Danger
Danger of injury by electric shock.
Unsuitable electrical extension cables
–
can be hazardous. Only use electrical
extension cables outdoors which have
been approved and labelled for this pur-
pose and have an adequate cable
cross-section.
Always unwind extension lines com-
–
pletely.
The plug and coupling of the extension
–
cable used must be watertight.
Caution
The highest allowed net impedance at the
electrical connection point (refer to techni-
cal data) is not to be exceeded. In case of
confusion regarding the power impedance
present on your connection, please contact
your utilities provider.
Danger
Risk of explosion!
Do not spray flammable liquids.
Danger
Risk of injury! Never use the appliance
without the spray lance attached. Check
and ensure proper fitting of the spray lance
