instructions
Before using the
h i g h - p r e s s u r e
cleaner, be sure
to also read the
enclosed operat-
i n g i n s t r u c t i o n s
and keep them within reach at
all times.
For your own safety
The high-pressure cleaner should
only be used by authorized per-
sons who have been instructed
in its use.
Although extremely easy to
operate, children should not be
allowed to use the cleaner.
General
Use of the high-pressure cleaner
is subject to the applicable local
regulations.
Besides the operating instruc-
tions and the binding accident
prevention regulations valid in
the country of use, observe rec-
ognized regulations for safety
and proper use.
Do not use any unsafe work
techniques.
Transport
Transport of the high-pressure
cleaner is easy on its large
wheels.
For safe transport in and on ve-
hicles we recommend preventing
the equipment from sliding and
tilting. Secure it with tie-downs
and apply the parking brake on
the castor wheel.
For transport at temperatures
around or below freezing 0°C
(32°F), anti-freeze should be
drawn into the pump beforehand
(see chapter 6).
Before starting the cleaner
If your 3-phase cleaner was
supplied without a plug, have
it fi tted with a suitable 3-phase
plug with ground, by a qualifi ed
electrician.
Before use, check that the high-
pressure cleaner is safe and in
proper condition.
Regularly check whether the
power cord is damaged or shows
signs of ageing.
Use the high-pressure cleaner
only when the power cord is in
a safe condition. (risk of electric
shock using damaged cord!).
Check the rated voltage of the
high-pressure cleaner before
connecting it to the mains power
supply. Ensure that the voltage
shown on the rating plate cor-
responds to the voltage of the
power supply.
We strongly recommend that the
power supply to the high pres-
sure cleaner be connected via a
residual current circuit breaker.
This device stops the supply of
electricity if the leakage current
to the ground exceeds 30 mA for
30 ms or it has an ground tester
circuit.
Please observe the regulations
and provisions applicable in your
area. Before putting the high-
pressure cleaner into service,
carry out a visual check of all
the major components.
