Troubleshooting

No water pressure

Check water supply connection and ensure the tap is fully open. Verify the inlet filter is clean and not blocked. Ensure the pump is primed correctly.

Detergent not being drawn

Check if the detergent suction pipe is submerged in the solution and not kinked. Ensure the detergent flow control is adjusted correctly.

Motor not starting

Verify the power connection is secure and the outlet is working. Check the thermal overload protection, which may have tripped.

Water leaks

Inspect all hose connections for tightness. Check for damage to hoses or seals. For persistent leaks, professional inspection may be required.

Poor cleaning performance

Ensure the correct nozzle is attached. Verify the water temperature is set appropriately for the task. Check for blockages in the lance or nozzle.
