GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING: Water at high pressure can be dangerous and can cause
damage to persons or property if the operator is careless. Never allow
anyone to operate this equipment unless they are familiar with the
safety precautions.
1. NEVER direct the spray towards any person or animal.
2. NEVER direct the spray towards electrical wiring or equipment.
3. NEVER hold your finger over the high pressure nozzle.
4. NEVER allow children or untrained personnel to use this machine.
5. NEVER operate the machine with any of the covers removed.
6. NEVER attempt any repairs to this machine. Always refer to your Clarke dealer.
7. NEVER supply any liquid other than water to the water inlet.
8. NEVER use the detergent bottle to introduce solvents, e.g. paint thinners, petrol, oil
as there is a risk of explosion
9. ALWAYS release any residual pressure in the system by turning off the water supply
and operating the trigger before disconnecting any hose or accessory.
10. ALWAYS keep the machine itself dry and well clear of water spray.
11. ALWAYS wear protective clothing and safety glasses. Loose particles and other
debris may be propelled at high speed by the water jet.
12. ALWAYS grip the gun firmly before pressing the trigger, expect the gun to ‘kick’ when
starting.
13. ALWAYS respect the requirements of the local water company. Power washers may
only be connected to the mains drinking water supply, if a backflow preventer valve
is installed in the supply hose.
14. ALWAYS disconnect from the water supply, and ensure the system is completely
drained when not in use. Store in a cool dry location.
15. When using the chemical injection facility, use only the chemical cleaning agents
(detergents), that are approved for power washers. CLARKE Traffic Film Remover or
CLARKE Wash and WAX (available from your dealer), is recommended.
16. WARNI NG High pressure jets can be dangerous if subject to misuse. The jet must not
be directed at persons or anything that they are wearing.
17. NEVER direct the jet at live electrical equipment or the machine itself.
18. WARNI NG High pressure hoses, fittings and couplings are important for the safety of
the machine. Use only hoses, fittings and couplings recommended by the
manufacturer.
19. WARNI NG Water that has flown through backflow preventers is considered to be
non-potable.
20. WARNI NG If an extension cord is used, the plug and socket must be of watertight
construction. Inadequate extension cords can be dangerous.

WARNING! Read these electrical safety instructions thoroughly
before connecting the product to the mains supply.
Before switching the product on, make sure that the voltage of your electricity supply is
the same as that indicated on the rating plate. This product is designed to operate on
230VAC 50Hz. Connecting it to any other power source may cause damage.
This product may be fitted with a non-rewireable plug. If it is necessary to change the
fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover becomes lost or
damaged, the plug must not be used until a suitable replacement is obtained.
If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or due to
damage, it should be cut off and a replacement fitted, following the wiring instructions
shown below. The old plug must be disposed of safely, as insertion into a mains socket
could cause an electrical hazard.
WARNING! The wires in the power cable of this product are
coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue = Neutral Brown = Live Yellow and Green = Earth
If the colours of the wires in the power cable of this product do not correspond with the
markings on the terminals of your plug, proceed as follows.
• The wire which is coloured Blue must be connected to the terminal which is
marked N or coloured Black.
• The wire which is coloured Brown must be connected to the terminal which is
marked L or coloured Red.
• The wire which is coloured Yellow and Green must be connected to the
terminal which is marked E or or coloured Green.
We strongly recommend that this machine is connected to the mains supply via a
Residual Current Device (RCD)
