Points to check : battery not charged
Actions to take : charge it
The battery is charged, but there is no spraying
The motor runs :
- Check the filter –> Clean, if clogged
- Check the nozzle –> Clean, if clogged
The motor does not run :
- Check the connections –> Connect again if necessary, return it to Customer Service if necessary
Leak between the handle and the lance
Check whether the valve seat is present and in good condition, fit it back in place or replace if necessary.
The motor runs, but the appliance sprays poorly or not at all
Check that the suction filter at the bottom of the tank is clean. Clean if necessary.
Check that the nozzle is not clogged. Clean if necessary.
Check that the suction and discharge pipes are not pinched (See dismounting in the instructions for use, section: “Replacing the battery”) .
If none of the above cases apply, replace your battery.
The motor does not run
Check that the terminals are connected properly (See dismounting in the instructions for use, section: “Replacing the battery”).
If the terminals are connected properly, replace your battery.
Water leak at the base of the appliance
Check whether the pump feed and discharge pipes are connected properly and are in good condition. Tighten or replace if necessary.
Check that the connector nut on the tank is tight.
Pumps
The pump does not start
Cas 1
Causes : The water level has not reached the pump actuation.
Solutions : Possible to adjust the float to lower the pump actuation level.
Cas 2
Causes : The float cannot move freely.
Solutions : Reposition the pump so that the float has sufficient space to move freely.
Cas 3
Causes : The float does not work.
Solutions : Manually check the float by lifting it.
Cas 4
Causes : No power supply.
Solutions : Check that the plug is inserted correctly into the socket.
Check the circuit breakers and electric connections outside the pump.
Cas 5
Causes : The turbine housing is clogged up with dirt.
Solutions : Disconnect the pump, remove the base plate and rinse the suction chamber.
The pump runs but does not deliver or delivers little water
Cas 1
Causes : The suction chamber is clogged up with dirt.
Solutions : Disconnect the pump, remove the base plate and rinse the suction chamber.
Cas 2
Causes : The discharge pipe is clogged.
Solutions : Remove the discharge pipe and unclog it.
The pump stops during operation (the thermal circuit breaker stops the pump due to overheating)
Cas 1
Causes : The power supply does not comply with the pump motor specifications.
Solutions : Disconnect the pump, eliminate the cause of overheating, wait for the pump to cool down and connect it once again.
Cas 2
Causes : Solids have blocked the hydraulic installation.
Solutions : Disconnect the pump, eliminate the cause of overheating, wait for the pump to cool down and connect it once again.
Cas 3
Causes : The pump has run with very hot water.
Solutions : Disconnect the pump, eliminate the cause of overheating, wait for the pump to cool down and connect it once again.
Cas 4
Causes : The pump has run dry for too long.
Solutions : Disconnect the pump, eliminate the cause of overheating, wait for the pump to cool down and connect it once again.
The pump does not run
Cas 1
Causes : No voltage in the network.
Solutions : Have your network checked by an expert electrician. Check the cable and connections.
Cas 2
Causes : Arbre bloqué.
Solutions : Débranchez la pompe. Insérez un tournevis dans la fente située en bout d’arbre moteur, coté ventilateur.
Tapez légèrement en tournant avec un marteau en plastique sur le tournevis.
The output is low
Cas 1
Causes : The suction pipe is clogged.
Solutions : Unclog the pipe.
Cas 2
Causes : The suction/elevation head is too high.
Solutions : Lower the suction/elevation head.
Cas 3
Causes : The discharge tube diameter is too small.
Solutions : Connect a pipe with a larger diameter.
The pump starts and then stops
Cas 1
Causes : The discharge installation leaks (< 1.5 l/min).
Solutions : Disconnect the supply cable from the electric network and check whether the discharge installation is leak-tight. After repairing, switch on the pump once again.
Cas 2
Causes : The level of pumped water decreases too quickly.
Solutions : Immerse the suction pipe deeper.
The pump does not start
Cas 1
Causes : No power supply.
Solutions : Check that the plug is inserted correctly into the socket. Check the circuit breakers and electric connections outside the pump.

Causes : Air leak. Pump housing is not filled with water.
Solutions : Check that the connections on the suction pipe are correct and leak-tight. Check that the suction pipe is straight.
Cas 2
Causes : There is air in the suction pipe.
Solutions : Check that the valve/foot valve is not clogged.
