Possible Causes
Broken trigger spring, Cracked trigger lever, Disconnected linkage rod to microswitch, Worn trigger pivot
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit before opening the handle.
- Open handle housing: Remove screws from the Zanussi handle and carefully separate the halves.
- Inspect trigger parts: Check the plastic trigger, pivot points, and return spring. Replace any broken or deformed parts.
- Reconnect linkage: Ensure the linkage rod or cam correctly actuates the microswitch or mechanical valve when the trigger is pulled.
- Lubricate lightly: Apply a small amount of silicone-safe lubricant to the pivot if it was sticking (avoid overspray on electrical parts).
- Reassemble and test: Confirm the trigger has a firm spring action and that solution sprays when pressed.
