securing it with a quarter turn.
The Force 1400 also has a turbo-lance as standard, which can
be used instead of the normal jet lance if desired.
Connect the handle to the high-pressure hose. See diagram2.
Connect the high-pressure hose to the water inlet of the
machine.
Fasten the female quick-lock to the water supply hose and then
connect them to the water inlet of the machine. The (not
supplied) water supply hose must have a minimum diameter of
13 mm (1/2”) and be reinforced.
Attention!
The water supply must supply at least the water consumption of the machine (330 l/h)! The pump
must always be supplied with sufficient water. ’Dry operation’ causes damage.
The water temperature may not exceed 40°C. The pressure of the water supplied may not exceed
0.7 MPA (7 bar).
Only use clean water with this machine. Impurities or aggressive chemicals damage the machine!
OPERATION
Turn the On/Off switch to the OFF/O (Off) position.
Check that the specifications of the socket that you wish to use correspond with those on the type
plate of the machine. If this is the case, insert the plug into the socket.
Open the water supply completely.
Unlock the safety lock under the handle.
Now squeeze the trigger for several seconds in order to de-aerate the hose.
Switch the machine on by switching the On/Off button to I/ON. The motor will start briefly, but will
stop again as long as the trigger is not squeezed.
Now squeeze the trigger – the machine will start.
The automatic start/stop system means that the motor only works when the trigger is
squeezed.
The jet produced by the jet lance can be adjusted from narrow to wide by turning the head of the
lance. Never do this while spraying!
The turbo-lance (Force1400) creates a narrow rotating jet.
TIPS FOR USE
When the water jet leaves the nozzle it causes the handle to recoil. You must therefore ensure that
you are standing in a stable position and have a firm grip. Also ensure that the high pressure of the
water jet does not cause objects to move out of place or fall or fly around and cause damage. Also
select a safe location for yourself!
Keep your work environment clean and tidy.
The high-pressure jet can cause damage to, for example, tyres if you move the jet too close. Always
maintain a minimum distance of 30 cm from the object to be cleaned! Always adjust the distance to
the object to be cleaned (and therefore the pressure) appropriately.
Work from the bottom to the top in the case of vertical surfaces.
Prevent water from splashing onto undesired places.
Do not move the cleaner by pulling the electrical cable. Do not lift the machine up with the cable.
Prevent damage to the cable caused by oil, solvents, sharp edges, etc. Do not cover the machine
during use.
Do not use the machine in an insufficiently ventilated room.
It is forbidden to clean surfaces containing asbestos with high-pressure.
If the machine is not used for longer than 5 minutes it must be switched off.
