Safety instructions
Danger
Never touch the mains plug and the
socket with wet hands.
The appliance must not be used if the
power cable or important parts of the ap­pliance, e.g. safety devices, high-pres­sure hoses, spray guns, are damaged.
The appliance may not be used in areas
where a risk of explosion is present.
If the appliance is used in hazardous ar-
eas (e.g. filling stations) the correspond­ing safety provisions must be observed.
Check the power cord with mains plug
for damage before every use. If the power cord is damaged, please arrange immediately for the exchange by an au­thorized customer service or a skilled electrician.
High-pressure jets can be
dangerous if improperly used. The jet may not be directed at persons, ani­mals, live electrical equipment or at the appliance itself.
The jet must not be directed at other
persons or directed by the user at him/ herself to clean clothing or footwear.
Never use the appliance to clean ob-
jects containing hazardous substances (e.g. asbestos).
Vehicle tyres or tyre valves are suscep-
tible to damage from the high-pressure jet and may burst. The first indication of this is a discolouration of the tyre. Dam­aged vehicle tyres/tyre valves are high­ly dangerous. Ensure that a distance of at least 30 cm is observed when clean­ing with the jet!
Never draw in fluids containing solvents
or undiluted acids and solvents! This in­cludes petrol, paint thinner and heating oil. The spray mist thus generated is highly inflammable, explosive and poi­sonous. Do not use acetone, undiluted acids and solvents as they are aggres­sive towards the materials from which the appliance is made.
Warning
Check the high-pressure hose for dam-
age before every use. Please arrange for the immediate exchange of a dam­aged high-pressure hose.
High-pressure hoses, fixtures and cou-
plings are important for the safety of the appliance. Only use high-pressure hos­es, fixtures and couplings recommend­ed by the manufacturer.
This appliance was designed to be
used with detergents which are sup­plied or recommended by the manufac­turer. The use of other detergents or chemicals may compromise the safety of the appliance.
Unsuitable extension cables can be
hazardous. Only use extension cables outdoors which have been approved for this purpose and labelled with a suffi­cient cable cross section: 1 - 10 m: 1,5 mm
Note
This device is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with re­duced physical, sensory or mental abil­ities or lacking experience and/or knowledge, unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or are instructed by these persons on the use of the device. Children should be supervised, in order to guarantee that they do not play with the device.
The operator must use the appliance
properly. When working with the appli­ance, he must consider the local condi­tions and pay due care and attention to other persons, in particular children, who are nearby.
Observe a distance of at least 30 cm
when using the jet to clean painted sur­faces to avoid damaging paintwork.
Cleaning operations which produce oily
waste water, e.g. engine washes, un­derbody washes, may only be carried out using washing stations equipped with an oil separator.
