Caution
Safety installations serve the protection of
the user and may not be modified or by-
passed.
The appliance switch prevents unintention-
al operation of the appliance.
This lock locks the lever of the trigger gun
and prevents the inadvertent start of the ap-
pliance.
The overflow valve prevents the permissi-
ble working pressure from being exceeded.
If the lever on the trigger gun is released
the pressure switch turns off the pump, the
high pressure jet is stopped. If the lever is
pulled the pump is turned on again.
These operating instructions describe the
maximum equipment. Depending on the
model, there are differences in the scopes
of delivery (see packaging).
