1. SAFETY
CAUTION - READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE MACHINE.
1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! It is the user's responsibility to check the following:
- Check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure that they are safe before using. Inspect power supply leads, plugs and all electrical connections for wear and damage. Sealey recommend that an RCD (Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical products.
- Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply.
- Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all connections to ensure that they are secure. Important: Ensure that the voltage rating on the appliance suits the power supply to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse.
- DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
- DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
- DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Ensure that any faulty item is repaired or is replaced immediately by a qualified electrician.
If the cable or plug is damaged during use, switch off the electricity supply and remove from use. Cable must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
- The Electric supply connection shall be made by a qualified electrician and comply with IEC 60364-1.
- It is recommended that the electric supply to this machine should include either a residual current device that will interrupt the supply if the leakage current to earth exceeds 30 mA for 30 ms or a device that will prove the earth circuit.
WARNING! Inadequate extension cords can be dangerous. If an extension cord is used, it shall be suitable for outdoor use, and the connection has to be kept dry and off the ground. It is recommended that this is accomplished by means of a suitably rated cord reel which keeps the socket at least 60 mm above the ground.
- Ensure that repairs are carried out by a qualified electrician.
1.2. PRESSURE WASHER SAFETY

Detach the high pressure hose: Turn switch to "OFF/II" position. Pull trigger to drain water from wand, push the lock button and pull.
5.8. ATTACH THE GARDEN HOSE
Remove the plastic plug from the water inlet pipe of the machine and screw the water inlet connector onto the water inlet pipe.
Connect one end of the garden hose (not supplied) to the water inlet connector and another end to water source.
WARNING! The appliance is INTENDED to be used at a temperature above 0°C.
WARNING! Garden hose must be in good condition. Inner diameter no less than 1/2", length cannot be greater than 8 m.
5.9. Connect to mains power.
6. OPERATION
WARNING! During operation appliance must be positioned on firm, stable surface. High pressure hose must not be coiled on the washer. When operating the machine, it must only be used upright.
WARNING! Check that the supply voltage and frequency correspond to those specified on the appliance data plate. The appliance should only be connected to a mains power supply via a security breaker (Max.30mA) to cut off the electricity supply in the instance of a short circuit.
6.1. START UP
Turn water on. Squeeze trigger for approx. 1 minute until low pressure water flows out, to empty air out of the unit.
Note: Before pressing trigger, make sure lock-off switch is in "unlock" position.
WARNING! DO NOT start the machine without connecting and turning on the water supply, it may cause damage to high pressure seals and reduce the service life of pump.
Turn the switch to "ON/I" position, then press trigger.
6.2. CLEANING
Squeeze the trigger, high pressure water flow will come out.
Pull back quick release mechanism at the end of the main lance, select the nozzle required and insert. Release the mechanism to change nozzle.
Note: Begin with the nozzle 1-2ft away from the surface and approach with caution until it reaches the desired position. Too close a spray may do harm to the surface.
WARNING! DO NOT connect the machine to water supplies that are dirty, rusty, muddy, or corrosive, including window cleaning liquids, plant foods, or fertilizers etc.
When cleaning is finished, release the trigger and turn the switch to "OFF/O" position, then turn off the water supply.
Note: When not in use, make sure Lock-off switch is in "Lock" position.
Note: Using pressure washer after water supply has been turned off, serious damage could occur to the pump and/or motor.
WARNING! Never disconnect high pressure discharge hose from machine while system is pressurized. To de-pressurize, turn switch off, turn water supply off and squeeze gun trigger 2-3 times.
Disconnect from mains supply.
6.3. SAFETY VALVE/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 operates, and the machine automatically shut down. If the gun nozzle is blocked, will cause the machine pressure rises, the safety valve opens, the pressure switch activates, the machine automatically shuts down.
Refer to section 7.2 to use a needle to clean the nozzle.
6.4. GUN SAFETY BUTTON
Operator needs to press the unlock button and then actuate the trigger to release spray.
When trigger is released, trigger will return to the off position automatically.
When not using the pressure cleaner, press the lock button to keep from accidentally engaging the high pressure spray.
6.5. HOLDING THE GUN
Hold the gun correctly to resist kickback forces: one hand on the handle, one on the lance.
6.6. TO WASH WITH DETERGENT
Fill detergent bottle with a recommended detergent or cleaner with a water ratio according to instructions on the detergent. Connect bottle to lance.
Squeeze the wand trigger, detergent will come out through the nozzle. The adjustment knob on the detergent bottle will adjust the concentration of detergent.
Apply detergent so it thoroughly covers cleaning surface.
Allow detergent to remain on the surface for a few minutes. Use a brush to lightly scrub heavily soiled areas.
Change to spray nozzle, rinse detergent from surface.
Cleaning up: Always draw fresh water through the detergent bottle when done to flush any remaining detergents from the injection system. The bottle could be detached if necessary in this process.
6.7. PLACEMENT OF ACCESSORIES ON THE MACHINE
Gun, power lead, hose and accessories are placed as shown.

7.1. CLEANING OF WATER INLET FILTER
The water filter installed inside the water inlet connector, should be cleaned periodically. Rinse it with clean tap water, and then place it back into the water inlet connector.
7.2. CLEANING THE NOZZLE
Using the nozzle tip cleaner provided (or an unfolded paper clip), insert the wire into the nozzle hole and move back and forth until debris is dislodged. Back flush water through the nozzles using garden hose.
7.3. CLEANING OF MACHINE VENTS
The machine should be kept clean so as to let cooling air pass easily through the machine vents.
7.4. GREASE COUPLINGS
To ensure easy connection and that o-rings work effectively, the couplings should be greased regularly.
