Euro-Pro EUROPRO VPW41H - Manual (Page 6)

This high pressure washer is suitable for
non-professional use. The working
temperature must range between 40°F
and 120 °F. The machine is supplied with
a trigger gun, equipped with a trigger
handle to offer a comfortable working
position.
The high pressure washer is suitable for
washing with cold water only. The water
that you use for the pressure washer
must not be dirty, sandy or contain any
corrosive chemical products.
The pressure washer may be used to
wash shutters, doors, tiles, cars, decks,
campers, etc., where high water pressure
is necessary to remove dirt.
With the detergent applicator bottle, the
pressure washer can be used to apply a
thick coating of aerated detergent to the
areas being cleaned .
When using the pressure washer we
recommend the use of personal safety
items to reduce the risk of accidental
injury.

Washer
• Place the pressure washer in a safe
area and on a horizontal surface.
• When using the pressure washer,
hold the trigger gun firmly with one
hand on the handle and the other on

AUTOMATIC STOP SYSTEM
PLEASE NOTE: This pressure
washer is equipped with the
Automatic Stop System, which stops
the unit during the bypass stage. To
start the pressure washer, it is
therefore necessary to set the On/Off
switch to the “On” position; after that
press the trigger: the Automatic Stop
System will start the machine and will
stop it automatically when the trigger
is released. It is advisable to put on
the safety lock of the trigger
whenever the machine is stopped in
order to avoid unintentional starting.
Any automatic start of the machine
without pressing the trigger is
attributable to air bubbles in the
water or other similar phenomena
which do not imply the existence of
any defects in the machine. Do NOT
leave the appliance unattended
during the standby for more than 5
minutes. Contrarily, for the safety of
the appliance it is necessary to re-
turn the On/Off switch to the “Off”
position. Please check that the
coupling of the high pressure hose
with the appliance and the trigger
gun supplied as standard equipment
is made correctly, that is to say
without any water leak.
