GARDEN JACK EPW1800 Electric Pressure Washer

Welcome to Gardenjack!
Dear Customer, Congratulations on your purchase. Before using the Product for the first time please be sure to read these instructions for use. They provide you with all information necessary for using the product safely and to ensure its long service life. Closely observe all safety information in these instructions!

GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your electric (corded) power tool or battery- operated (cordless) power tool.

1. Work area safety

   • Keep the work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
   • Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks that may ignite dust or fumes.
   • Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety

   • Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with grounded power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock
   • Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded
   • Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
   • Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
   • When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
   • If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock

3. Personal safety
   

   • Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
   • Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust masks, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
   • Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before connecting to a power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
   • Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
   • Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations
   • Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

4. Power tool use and care

   • Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
   • Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that can not be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
   • Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
   • Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
   • Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
   • Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5. Service

   • Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
   • If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by the manufacturer or its agent in order to avoid a safety hazard.

CAUTION: Never disconnect the high-pressure discharge hose from the machine while the system is still pressurized. To depressurize the unit, turn off the motor, turn off the water supply and squeeze the trigger 2-3  times.

•   Safety valve and/or pressure limiting valve
  Warning! Do not tamper with or adjust the safety valve setting.
  The safety valve is also a pressure limiting valve. When the gun trigger is released,the valve opens , pressure switch action, the machine automatically shut down. If the    gun nozzle is blocked, the machine pressure rises and the safety valve opens the pressure switch action and the machine automatically shut down. You  can refer to the following point 7 to use a needle to clean the nozzle.

•   Automatic On/Of
  The pressure cleaner is equipped with an automatic on/off switch. The pressurecleaner will only run when the powerswitch is in the ON position and the trigger on the gun is squeezed. When you  release the trigger to stop spraying water through the gun, the motor on the pressure cleaner will automatically shut off. Simply squeeze the trigger again to resume using the cleaner. To stop using the pressure cleaner, release the trigger and switch the unit to the OFF position. The unit should be turned completely OFF while not in use or while unattended.

•   Hold the gun
  It is very important to bleed the gun before using the pressure cleaner. Refer to the “Assembly Instructions” to assemble the pressure cleaner. To bleed the gun, simply connect the garden hose to the pressure cleaner and squeeze the trigger BEFORE turning the electrical supply on. This allows any air trapped inside the pressure cleaner and gun to be removed before using the unit. Continue holding trigger for approximately one minute to allow any excess air out of the unit. Water will flow through the gun at low pressure during this procedure. For more bleeding tips, see the section titled “Operating Instructions.”

• Gun Safety Lock
  This pressure cleaner is equipped with a gun trigger safety lock. When not using the pressure cleaner, use the safety lock to keep from accidentally engaging the high pressure spray.

• Using cleaning agent
  -Fill the detergent tank with an appropriate cleaning agent.  The cleaning agent automatically comes out when being set to a lowpressure water jet by turning the pressure adjusting ring of the variable nozzle lance.

• Adjustable Spray Nozzle
  The adjustable nozzle will allow you to use any variety of spray patterns from a full fan spray (Diagram 1) to a direct stream spray (Diagram 2). When using the pressure washer to clean wood decks, siding, vehicles etc., always start using the fan spray and begin spraying from a minimum 36” away to avoid damaging the surface of the material you are cleaning. Always begin by spraying in a testing area free and clear of people and objects.

• Rotate The Gun
  The gun rotating will adjust your cleaning angle during a full fan spray pattern, to make every user find its most comfortable and efficient cleaning position. Push the button to “unlock” side, the rotating function will be opened. And push the button to “unlock” side if you don’t need this function.

•   Unblock lance
  When the nozzle is clogged, it will cause the pump to build pressure and may cause unit to surge, you can clean the nozzle inserting needle into the tip to rid of the deposits. For the adjustable nozzle, you can lubricate
  the nozzle collar (high pressure to low pressure) by using non-water soluble grease regularly.
