Safety Devices

Safety devices serve for the protection of the user and must not be put out of operation or bypassed with respect to their function.
Overflow valve with two pressure switches

• While reducing the water supply at the pump head or with the Servopress regulation the overflow valve opens and part of the water flows back to the pump suck side.
• If the hand-spray gun is closed, so that the whole water flows back to the pump suck side, the pressure switch at the overflow valve shuts down the pump.
• If the hand spray gun is opened, the pressure switch on the cylinder head turns the pump back on.

The overflow valve is set by the manufacturer and sealed. Setting only by customer service.
Safety valve

• The safety valve opens, when the overflow valve resp. the pressure switch is broken.
  The safety valve is set by the manufacturer and sealed. Setting only by customer service.

Water shortage safeguard

• The water shortage safeguard prevents the burner to be turned on when there is water shortage.
• A sieve prevents the contamination of the safeguard and must be cleaned regular.

Temperature stop for exhaust gases

• The temperature stop switches off the machine when the waste gases have reached very high temperatures.

DANGER
Risk of injury! When adjusting the pressure/quantity regulation, make sure that the screw connection of the spray lance does not become loose.
Note: For long term work with low pressure, set pressure at the pressure/quantity regulation of the pump unit.
Operation with detergent

• For considerate treatment of the environment use detergent economically.
• The detergent must be suitable for the surface to be cleaned.

With support of the detergent dose valve set detergent concentration as determined by the manufacturer.
Note: Recommended values at the control panel at maximum working pressure.
Note: If detergent is be suctioned from an external container, route the detergent suction hose through the recess to the outside.
Cleaning
Set pressure/temperature and detergent concentration according to the surface to be cleaned.
Note: To prevent damage due to too much pressure, always position high pressure ray first from a greater distance towards object to be cleaned.
Recommended cleaning method
– Loosen the dirt:
Spray detergent economically and let it work for 1…5 minutes but do not let it dry up.
– Remove the dirt:
Spray off loosened dirt with the high pressure jet.
Operating with cold water
