Start-up
In keeping with current regulations
a pressure cleaner must never be
operated off the drinking water
mains supply without a controllable
backflow preventer. A suitable back-
flow preventer in conformity with
EN 12729 type BA must be used.
Water that has passed through a backflow
preventer is classified as undrinkable.
A backflow preventer is available in spe-
cialist shops.
• Employ an ordinary garden hose for
the water intake and ensure sufficient
couplings are important for machine
safety. Use only high-pressure hoses,
fittings and couplings recommended by
the manufacturer.
• Use only original accessories and do
not carry out conversion work on the
equipment.
• Please read the notes in the operating
instructions on the topic of “mainte-
nance and cleaning”. Any measures
above and beyond these, particularly
opening the equipment, are to be car-
ried out by an authorised electrician.
In the case of repairs, always contact
our service centre.
Electrical safety:
Caution: to avoid accidents
and injuries from electric
shocks:
• The plug and socket of an extension
cable must be water-tight!
Unsuitable extension cables can
be dangerous as people can be
harmed by an electric shock!
• Protect the electric plug connections
against moisture.
• If there is a risk of flooding, fix the
plug connections in an area that is safe
from flooding.
• Ensure that the mains voltage matches
the specifications on the rating plate.
• Connection to the mains must be
carried out by an experienced electri-
cian and meet the requirements of
IEC 60364-1.
• The electrical installation shall be ac-
cording to national wiring rules.
• The device must only be connected to
a mains socket via a residual-current
circuit breaker (RCD) with a rated leak-
age current of not more than 30 mA.
Fuse: at least 13 ampere.
