3.1 Transport and assembly
1. The safest way to lift the ma-
chine is to use a fork-lift truck
The arrows in the illustration
indicate the best places to
position the fork.
Every fuel-burning appliance,
such as pressure washers, de-
pends upon a proper mix of fuel
and air (by weight) for proper
combustion. Therefore some
adjustment of the air supply to
the burner may be necessary to
take account of altitude and the
resulting air pressure. This is
true whether your fuel is ‘Natural
gas’, Propane or Diesel.
Your Nilfisk-ALTO hot water
pressure washer was thor-
oughly tested and adjusted for
optimum performance before
it left our factory. The factory
is
located at approximately 200m
(650 ft) above sea level, and the
combustion settin
gs are optimal
for that elevation.
If your location is higher
than 1200m (3900 ft) above
sea level, your burner may
require re-adjustment for
proper performance and best
fuel economy. Contact your
Dealer or Nilfi sk-ALTO for
assistance.
3.2 Set the brake (only
machines with wheels
1. Before using the cleaner for
the fi rst time, check it care-
fully for any faults or damage.
2. Run the machine only when
it is in perfect working condi-
tion.
3. Set the brake.
3.7 Fill up fuel tank With the machine cold and
turned off:
1. Fill fuel tank from a clean
container with a fresh fuel
(fuel oil EL, or Diesel oil DIN
51 603), or fuel type recom-
mended by your distributor.
Bio-Diesel can be used, see
notes in chapter 1.
The fuel must be free from con-
tamination.
Tank capacity max. 57 l.
DIESEL
FUEL OIL
NOTE!
At temperatures below 8°C
(46°F), the fuel oil begins to so-
lidify (paraffin precipitation). This
can lead to difficulties in starting
the burner. Before the winter
months it is recommended that a
fuel conditioner/stabilizer be
