CAUTION
• Before expecting maximum performance of the high pressure cleaner it is good practice to warm the
engine up for a couple of minutes.
NOTE: If the level of fuel in the tank is below the minimum mark, the warning light (44) will remain lit, even
if you are operating the cleaner with cold water.
STANDARD OPERATION WITH HOT WATER (AT HIGH PRESSURE)
• Ensure that the device (37) is not in the low pressure position (Fig. 4-a).
• Unscrew the cap (7) and fill the tank with automotive gas oil, making sure the fuel does not spill over. We
recommend using a funnel reserved exclusively for this purpose (maximum tank capacity 30 l /7,9 US gal).
Replace the cap.
• Start the engine, referring to the relevant operating and maintenance manual.
• Open the water supply cock.
• Move knob (28) into position
• Set the temperature between 0°C/0°F and 110°C/230°F using the temperature adjustment knob (41).
• Press the cleaner gun lever (22) and check the nozzle spray is even without dripping.
• If necessary, adjust the pressure using the knob (8). Turn it clockwise to increase the pressure; turn it
anticlockwise to reduce the pressure. You can check the pressure level on the pressure gauge (13). The
pressure may also be lowered by means of device (37) as in Fig. 4-a
• When the fuel is low, the burner will stop working and the warning light (44) will light up.
• The burner will only start working approximately 3 seconds after the cleaner gun has been opened and
will stop working when the cleaner gun is closed or after it has reached the set temperature.
• If the flame goes out, the burner will stop working and the warning light (49) will light up.
• If you wish to go from working with hot water to cold water, move knob (28) into position

OPERATION IN STEAM MODE (MAXIMUM PRESSURE 32 bar - 464 psi)
The FDX HOT CUBE series high pressure cleaners were designed in compliance with category II of
Directive 97/23/EC for pressure equipment (PED). The compliance with this requirement is assured by a
special electronic device that constantly checks:
• that for temperatures above 110 °C/230 °F, the pressure set is below 32 bar/464 psi;
• that for pressures above 32 bar/464 psi, the temperature set is no greater than 110 °C/230 °F.
If the above limits are exceeded, the burner stops and the warning light (48) comes on.
Steam operation will only resume if the pressure is reduced to below 32 bar/464 psi.
• Unscrew the cap (7) and fill the tank with automotive gas oil, making sure the fuel does not spill over. We
recommend using a funnel reserved exclusively for this purpose (maximum tank capacity 30 l / 7,9 US gal).
Replace the cap.
• Start the engine, referring to the relevant operating and maintenance manual.
• Open the water supply cock
• Move knob (28) into position
• Lower pressure to below 32 bar/464 psi, turning knob (8) anticlockwise or by means of device (37) as in Fig. 4-a.
• Set the temperature between 110°C/230°F and 140°C/284°F using the temperature adjustment knob (41).
• Press the cleaner gun lever (22) and wait for steam to be produced.
• If necessary, adjust the pressure using the knob (8). Turn it clockwise to increase the pressure; turn it
anticlockwise to reduce the pressure. You can check the pressure level on the pressure gauge (13). The
pressure may also be lowered by means of device (37) as in Fig. 4-a
• If the burner happens to go out during operation and LED (48) lights up, turn knob (8) anticlockwise or
use device (37) as in Fig. 4-a, to bring pressure back to below 32 bar/464 psi. You can see the pressure on
