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 settings 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 Nilfisk-ALTO for assistance.
