Use of the cleaner Use this cleaner exclusively for – cleaning with high-pressure jet and detergent (e.g. cleaning of machines, vehicles, buildings, tools) – cleaning with high-pressure jet without detergent (e.g. cleaning facades, terraces, gardening equipment). For stubborn dirt we recommend the dirt blaster as an optional accessory. Safety features Relief valve with pressure switch On reducing the flow rate with the pressure and flow control, the relief valve opens and part of the water runs back to the suction side of the pump. If the lever (2) is released, the pressure switch switches the pump off. If the lever is retracted, the pressure switch switches the pump on again.
