Let’s Clean up Australia with an Aussie
Eco-Clean Concept F140

Congratulations on your acquisition of a top quality Aussie Concept F140 2,000 psi high
pressure water blaster. This machine offers users a wide range of features that make cleaning
tasks a breeze.

Pump The axial piston pump is the heart of the machine, and

features a brass head and stainless steel pistons.

Total Stop Protection The Total Stop device fitted to this machine will automatically

turn your Concept F140 pressure cleaner off when the gun
trigger is closed off. The machine will re-activate when you
pull the trigger. This protects the pump from overheating
when machine is not in use.

Integrated Detergent Tank This machine is fitted with a heavy duty, one piece

polypropylene chassis with large integrated detergent tank.

Electric Motor The Concept F140 is powered by a 2.2kW (3HP) single

phase, two pole induction motor, designed to give years of
service.

Turbo Power All Concept F140 machines come with a professional style

Aussie Turbo Master turbo lance that allows the operator to
have the benefit of an effective working pressure of up to
3,000 psi! … you’ll feel the turbo difference.

Vario High/Low Lance Head The Vario lance enables the operator to vary the angle of the

jet from 0º (direct jet) to 35º, at the twist of the wrist.

High/Low Pressure Function The Vario nozzle allows the operator to apply detergent at

low pressure with a simple readjustment to high pressure
when required.
