The Fieldmann FDW 2004-E is a high-pressure washer designed for cleaning surfaces. Before using, ensure all parts are accounted for and the shipping plug is removed. The device requires a 230V, 50Hz power supply and a dedicated 15A circuit. Always ensure the water supply is connected and the valve is fully open before starting.
General Description
The unit consists of a motor and pump in a case, a spray gun, a variable spray nozzle with lance, a high-pressure hose, and wheels. Familiarize yourself with the location of the ON/OFF switch, cord wrap, and accessory storage holsters.
Assembly Instructions
Locate and remove all loose parts from the carton. Click the storage hook into the back part and fix it with two screws. Remove and discard the shipping plug from the outlet on the front of the machine.
Starting
Connect the high-pressure hose to the machine outlet, ensuring threads are aligned. Connect the garden hose to the connector on the back of the machine. Insert the spray lance into the gun by pushing firmly and twisting 1/4 turn counter-clockwise. Turn on the water supply, plug the unit into an electrical outlet, unlock the gun safety, squeeze the trigger to bleed air, and turn the switch to the ON position.
Storage
After using detergent, rinse the suction tube and detergent nozzle with clear water for 30 seconds. Turn the machine OFF, squeeze the trigger to release trapped pressure, remove hoses, disconnect the lance, run the machine for 5 seconds to clear water, and store in a dry, climate-controlled environment above 4°C.
Troubleshooting
If the detergent is not dispensing, check if it is approved for pressure washers and ensure the suction tube is not kinked. If the motor stops, it may be due to thermal overload; allow it to cool for 20 minutes. If pressure is low, check the water supply and clean the inlet filter.
Technical Specifications
The unit operates at 230V, 50Hz with a nominal power input of 1200W. Nominal pressure is 6 MPa, with a maximum of 9 MPa. The nominal flow rate is 5.5 L/min.
