1 Safety Precautions and Warnings
Before starting up your high
pressure washer for the fi rst
time, this instruction manual
must be read through carefully.
Save the instructions for later
use.
Only let instructed people
operate the machine.
General
When using the high pressure
washer all existing national
regulations must be observed.
Beyond the instruction manual
and the current national legal
regulations for prevention of
accidents, also the approved
rules for safe working must be
observed.
Any method of use endangering
the safety of persons or
equipment is forbidden.
Before use
Before starting up your high
pressure washer check that it is
in a regular condition. Electric
plugs and couplings must be
watertight.
Check the electric cables at
regular intervals for damage
and wear. Only use the high
pressure washer if the electric
cable is all right (damaged
electric cables can cause
electric shock!)
Important instructions
Connection to public mains
according to the applicable
regulations in your country.
IMPORTANT: Only use water
without impurities!
Before each use of your high
pressure washer check the
most important visual parts.
High pressure jets can be
dangerous if misused. Never
direct the water jet towards
people, pets, electric wiring, or
the machine itself.
Spray handle and lance are
affected by a thrust during
operation - therefore always
hold the spray lance fi rmly with
both hands.
Never try to clean clothes or
footwear on yourself or other
persons.
Operator and anyone in
immediate vicinity of the site
of cleaning should take action
to protect himself from being
struck by debris dislodged
during operation.
Check that cleaning will not
result in dangerous substances
(e.g. asbestos, oil) being
washed off the object to be
cleaned and harming the
environment.
Do not clean sensitive surfaces
made of rubber, fabrics or
the like with the zero nozzle.
With the fl at jet nozzle keep a
distance of at least 15 cm to the
surface to be cleaned.
Never let children operate the
machine.
Do not use the machine if
the electric cable or the high
pressure hose are damaged.
Do not cover the machine
during operation or use it
in a room without adequate
ventilation !
If the overload protection device
of the motor trips (motor stops),
release the trigger of the spray
handle. Lock the spray handle
with locking device and turn the
start/stop switch to position „0“.
Let the machine cool off for at
least 3 minutes!
The machine must be placed in
a room where it is not exposed
to frost.
Operation
Avoid damage to the electric
cables such as running over
by a car, squeezing, pull, knots
etc. and keep them away from
sharp or hot objects.
Avoid damage to the high
pressure hose such as running
over by a car, squeezing, pull,
knots/kinks etc. and keep it
away from oil and sharp or hot
objects, as such may cause the
hose to burst.
The cleaner can be used in
zones classifi ed as ZONE 2.
Important! Never use the
machine in an environment
where there could be a danger
of explosion (according to EN-
50014).
4
Important! When the system
has been in operation and
thereafter stopped, there will
still be a working pressure in
the pipeline and high pressure
hoses. Therefore you should
pay special attention to the
following:
• Never dismount the high
pressure hose from the
machine during operation.
Disconnect the machine,
close the shut-off cock and
relieve the high pressure
hose of pressure prior to
dismounting.
• Never dismount the high
pressure hose from the outlet
point before it has been
securely closed and the high
pressure hose has been
relieved of pressure.
• Prior to any service
interference in the machine
it should be disconnected
and the system relieved of
pressure by activating the
trigger of the spray handle.
Mains power connection
Check the nominal voltage
of the high pressure washer
before connecting it to the
electricity supply.
Check that the voltage stated
on the model tag corresponds
to your mains voltage.
A circuit breaker must be
placed in the immediate vicinity
of the machine.
We recommend you to connect
the machine to a power source
with a Residual Current Device
(RCD) which will disconnect
the power supply if the leakage
current exceeds 30 mA for 20
milli seconds.
Only connect to an approved
socket with earth connection.
Safety Devices
Safety Valve
The pressure side of the high
pressure pump is fi tted with a
safety valve. This valve leads
the water back to the suction
side of the pump when the
spray handle is closed or if a
nozzle is blocked.
The safety valve is adjusted
and sealed by the producer.
THIS ADJUSTMENT MUST
NOT BE CHANGED !
Motor protection
The motor features an
overcurrent protection and
built-in thermal switches for
protection of motor against
overloading. In the event of
increased power consumption
(maloperation), the current for
the motor will automatically be
cut out.
Repair and Maintenance
Only carry through the
maintenance operations
described in the operating
instructions. Only use original
Nilfi sk-ALTO spare parts.
Do NOT make any technical
modifi cations to the high
pressure washer.
Warning! High pressure
hoses, nozzles and couplings
are important for the safety
when operating the machine.
Only use the high pressure
hoses, nozzles and couplings
prescribed by Nilfi sk-ALTO!
For major repairs, please
contact your nearest Nilfi skALTO service organisation.
Only connect the machine to an
electrical installation made by
an qualifi ed electrician.
The insulation of the electric
cable should be quite faultless
and without any cracks.
If you are in doubt about the
the mains power connection,
please contact a qualifi ed
electrician.
Note: If using another cable it
must be earthed and connected
through the plug to the earth
cable of your supply network
in accordance with prescribed
safety regulations.
Always use a cable similar
to the one mounted on the
machine.
Check cables before usage. Do
not use damaged cables.
Only let a qualifi ed electrician
replace the electric cable.

3.2 Condition of distance
The machine should be
installed in a frost-free room.
This applies to pump as well as
pipelines incl. of outlet points.
Con cern ing outdoor outlet
points, it should be possible to
close and emp ty that part of the
line which is exposed to frost.

the mounting of a ma chine. I.e.
a concrete or brick wall.
Do not mount the machine
on a wall where it will cause
disturbances in neighbouring
rooms (canteens, offi ces etc.).
DUO BOOSTER:
Place the machine on a plane

MPORTANT: When connecting
to a pipeline always use a
fl exible hose connection from
the outlet of the machine (pos.
6) - order no. 6300843. Contact
your Nilfi sk-ALTO distributor for
further information.
The outlet of the machine can
be connected to a pipeline with
fi xed outlet points, or standard
high pres sure hoses can be
connected directly to the outlet
of the machine.
It is recommended to let a
service tech ni cian authorized
by Nilfi sk-ALTO prepare the
pipeline.
Turn main switch to position
- 1 -. Open the outlet point.
Let the water run until all air has
escaped from the pump (even
water fl ow).
In the case of a recently
installed sys tem, or if the
pipeline and the pump have
been emptied in any other way,
the system should be vented
by starting the pump and then
let the water run at each outlet
point of the pipeline at turns.
When con nect ing the high
pressure hose directly to the
ma chine, the sys tem should
be vented by starting the pump
and ac ti vat ing the trigger of the
spray handle without having
attached the spray lance.
