10.0 Storage/frost proofing 11.0 Model tag
It is advisable to store the machine in a frost
proof place between operations. If this is not
possible the machine should be protected in the
following way:
1. Disconnect the inlet hose. Remove the lance
(pos. 29) and empty it of water.
2. Ensure that the thermostat is set in the blue
field, and start the machine, allowing it to run
with the spray handle opened until it is empty
of water.
3. Place a suction hose in a bucket with 6-8 l
(1.5-2 gallons) anti-freeze.
4. Place the spray handle (without spray lance)
above the bucket, open the spray handle so
that the antifreeze can circulate. Open and
close the spray handle a few times.
5. Remove the suction hose from the bucket
and allow the machine to pump all of the
solution back into the anti-freeze container.
The anti-freeze can be re-used, but keep in
mind that it is slightly diluted with water each
time this is done.
Important:
To avoid damage always ensure that the
washer, the hoses and the spray lance are
unfrozen before restarting. Place the washer
and the accessories in a warm environment for
some time before starting up.
