Istruzioni per l'uso

Once the pressure washer is set up and connected to a water source, follow these steps to operate it:

1. Avviare il motore: Follow the starting procedure outlined on the engine itself or in the engine manual. Typically, this involves turning on the fuel valve, setting the choke, and pulling the recoil starter.
2. Engage the Spray Gun: Once the engine is running, aim the spray gun at the surface to be cleaned and squeeze the trigger. The pump will pressurize the water.
3. Scegli l'ugello giusto:
   • 0° (Rosso): Pinpoint stream, extremely powerful. Use with extreme caution for tough spots on durable surfaces.
   • 15° (Giallo): Narrow spray, powerful. Ideal for heavy-duty cleaning of hard surfaces.
   • 25° (Verde): Medium spray. Good for general cleaning of most surfaces.
   • 40° (Bianco): Wide spray. Suitable for light cleaning and delicate surfaces.
   • Sapone (nero): Spruzzatore a bassa pressione per l'applicazione di detergenti.
4. Applicare il detersivo (facoltativo): If using detergent, attach the black soap nozzle and place the siphon tube into a pressure washer-safe detergent. The pressure washer will draw the detergent. Apply detergent to the surface, allow it to soak, then switch to a high-pressure nozzle for rinsing.
5. Mantieni la distanza: Always keep a safe distance from the cleaning surface, especially with high-pressure nozzles, to avoid damage.
6. Fermare: To stop operation, release the spray gun trigger, turn off the engine, and then turn off the water supply. Squeeze the trigger again to release any remaining pressure.
