Before using the
high-pressureclean-
er, be sure to also
read the enclosed
operating instruc-
tions and keep them within reach
at all times.
For your own safety
The appliance must
– only be used by persons,
who have been instructed in
its correct usage and explic-
itly commissioned with the
task of operating it
– only be operated under su-
pervision
– not be used by children
– not be used by mentally or
physically disabled persons
CAUTION!
High-pressure water jets can be
dangerous if misused. The jet
must not be directed at persons,
animals, live electrical equip-
ment or the cleaner itself.
Wear protective clothing, ear
protection and safety goggles.
Do not use the cleaner when
other people without protective
clothing are in the working area.
Do not direct the jet towards
yourself or towards other per-
sons in order to clean clothes
or footwear. Do not direct the jet
towards live animals.
During operation of the cleaner,
recoil forces are produced at the
spraying device and, when the
spray lance is held at an angle,
a torque is also created. The
spraying device must therefore
be held firmly in both hands.
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-
ognised regulations for safety
and proper use.
Do not use any unsafe work
techniques.
Do not tie the trigger handle
open.
Transport
For safe transport in and on ve-
hicles we recommend prevent-
ing the equipment from sliding
and tilting. Secure it with belts.
For transport at temperatures
around or below 0°C, anti-freeze
liquid should be drawn into the
pump and boiler beforehand
(see chapter 6).
Before starting the cleaner
If your machine is a 3 phase
version and has been supplied
without a plug have it fitted with
a suitable 3 phase plugwith an
earth conductor by an electri-
cian.
Each time prior to putting the
appliance into service, always
check the power supply cord
and the other important parts of
the appliance, such as the high-
pressure hose and the spray
gun. Do not operate the appli-
ance if any of these parts are
damaged.
Set up the appliance such that
the mains connector is readily
accessible.
Regularly check whether the
mains lead is damaged or shows
signs of ageing. Use the high-
pressure cleaner only when the
mains power lead is in a safe
condition.
