The lid of the container is not a tight
seal type. Be careful not to spill the water in the
container when carrying.
2. Disconnect the filter case from the hose of the
suction hose set.

ing hole
NOTICE:
Pay attention to the handling of the
container when carrying. Carrying the container
with high pressure washer and accessories or water
inside may cause accident or personal injury due to
its own weight.
NOTICE:
When carrying the container, do not
shake, turnover, or lean it excessively. Doing so
may cause;
— the water inside spilled out;
— the high pressure washer on the lid dropped off
from the container or;
— the rotation of the container's wheels hindered.
NOTICE:
When carrying the container by the
handle, water may spill out if there is plenty of
water inside.
NOTICE:
Water may come out from the air
bleeding hole if the water inside reaches to the air
bleeding hole by tilting the container.
NOTICE:
Do not step on the container. The lid
may be broken.
NOTICE:
Do not leave the container filled with
water for a long time. Doing so may cause the con-
tainer damaged and result in water leakage.
After use, follow the procedure below:
1. Remove the cap on the drain outlet and discharge
water.
► Fig.17: 1. Drain outlet
2. Wipe off the moisture inside of the container using
a cloth and then dry the container completely.
NOTICE:
Do not store the high pressure washer
and the accessories while the inside of the con-
tainer is wet. Remaining moisture may cause mal-
function and rust.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool.
Connecting the high-pressure hose
Connect the high-pressure hose to the outlet (with the gun
marking). Turn the nut on the high-pressure hose clock-
wise while screwing it onto the screw thread of the outlet.
► Fig.18: 1. Outlet 2. Nut
CAUTION:
Make sure that the high-pressure
hose is securely connected. A loose connection
may blow the high-pressure hose off, resulting in a
personal injury.
Attaching the trigger gun
Connect the high-pressure hose to the inlet on the trigger
gun. Turn the nut on the high-pressure hose clockwise
while screwing it onto the screw thread on the inlet.
► Fig.19: 1. Inlet 2. Nut
CAUTION:
Make sure that the high-pressure
hose is securely connected. A loose connection
may blow the high-pressure hose off, resulting in a
personal injury.
Connecting to a faucet
CAUTION:
Always use a pressure-resistant
water hose with ø 13 mm or larger diameter and
connect to the faucet using a proper fittings.
Otherwise, the water hose and/or the fitting may
break and cause personal injury.
NOTICE:
Use a pressure-resistant water hose
as short as possible. The amount of intake water
should be higher than the max feed volume of the
pump.
NOTICE:
If you connect to the mains for drink-
ing water, use a backflow preventer valve which
meets the regulations in your region.
Prepare a pressure-resistant water hose. Attach the
coupling sleeve to one end and connect the other end
to the faucet as follows.
1. Remove the nut on the coupling sleeve and pass the
pressure-resistant water hose through the nut. Insert the end
of the hose into the coupling sleeve and then tighten the nut.
