The HiKOKI AW 18DBL is a cordless high-pressure washer designed for cleaning tasks such as screen doors, windows, vehicles, and gardening equipment. This guide provides essential information for safe and efficient operation.

Safety Warnings

  • High-pressure water: Never direct the jet at people, animals, electrical equipment, or the washer itself.
  • Battery safety: Keep the battery terminals free of dust and metal debris. Do not short-circuit, disassemble, or expose the battery to fire or high temperatures.
  • Work area: Keep the area clean and tidy to prevent accidents.
  • Operation: Always hold the trigger gun firmly with both hands.

Operation

Initial Setup: Ensure the high-pressure hose and trigger gun are attached before connecting the water tank. If using stored water, ensure the hose is primed and the height difference is within 0.5m.

Starting: Set the switch to ON. Adjust the spray from 'Jet' to 'Spray' gradually while pulling the trigger.

After Use: Always drain residual water from the washer, hose, and trigger gun to prevent freezing and malfunctions. Lock the trigger with the trigger stopper.

Maintenance and Inspection

  • Nozzle: Regularly clean the nozzle hole using the supplied nozzle cleaner pin.
  • Strainer: Periodically wash the strainer located in the water feed inlet.
  • Storage: Store in a dry, safe place away from children and extreme temperatures.

Troubleshooting

If the washer does not operate normally, check the following:

  • Motor won't start: Check if the battery is installed, the switch is ON, and the battery is charged.
  • Power lamp blinks: The battery may be overheated. Allow it to cool in a well-ventilated area.
  • Water pressure issues: Check for blockages in the strainer or nozzle, or loose water feed connections.
