Electric components

 DANGER

Risk of electric shock.
 Never touch the mains plug

and the socket with wet
hands.

 Check the power cord with

mains plug for damage prior
to every use. Immediately
have damaged power cord
replaced by an authorised
customer service / electrician.
Do not operate an appliance if
the power cord is damaged.

 All current-conducting parts

in the working area must be
protected against jet water.

 The mains plug and the cou-

pling of an extension cable
must be watertight and must
never lie in water. Moreover,
the coupling may never lie on
the ground. The use of cable
reels that ensure that the
sockets are at least 60 mm
above the ground is recom­mended.

 Make sure that the power

cord or extension cable is not
damaged by running over,
pinching, dragging or the like.
Protect the power cords from
heat, oil, and sharp edges.

 Turn off the appliance and re-

move the mains plug prior to
any care and maintenance
works.

 Repair work and work on the

electrical components may
only be performed by an au­thorised customer service.

몇 WARNING

 The appliance may only be

connected to an electric sup­ply that has been installed by
an electrician in accordance
with IEC 60364.

 The appliance may only be

connected to alternating cur­rent. The voltage must corre­spond with the type plate of
the appliance.

 For safety reasons, we rec-

ommend that you operate the
appliance only via a residual
current device (max. 30 mA).

 An unsuitable electrical ex-

tension cable can be hazard­ous. Only use an electrical
extension cable which has
been approved and labelled
for this purpose and has an
adequate cable cross-section
outdoors: 1 - 10 m: 1.5 mm
10 - 30 m: 2.5 mm

Safe handling

 DANGER

 The user must use the appli-

ance as intended. The person
must consider the local condi­tions and must pay attention
to other persons in the vicinity
when working with the appli­ance.

 Check important compo-

nents, such as high-pressure
hose, hand spray gun and
safety installations, for dam­age prior to every operation.

English 5

Immediately replace dam­aged components. Do not op­erate appliance with dam­aged components.

 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 high-pressure jet must

not be directed at other per­sons or the user him-/herself
to clean clothing or footwear.

 Vehicle tyres/tyre valves are

susceptible to damage from
the high-pressure jet and may
burst. The first indication for
this is a discolouration of the
tyre. Damaged vehicle tyres/
tyre valves are perilous. Keep
a minimum jet distance of
30 cm during cleaning!

몇 WARNING

 Do not use the appliance

when there are other persons
around unless they are also
wearing protective clothing.

 The appliance must not be

operated by children or per­sons who have not been in­structed accordingly.

 This appliance is not intended

for use by persons with limit­ed physical, sensory or men­tal capacities or lacking expe­rience and/or skills, unless
such persons are accompa­nied and supervised by a per­son in charge of their safety
or they have received precise

instructions on the use of this
appliance and have under­stood the resulting risks.

 Children must not play with

this appliance.

 Supervise children to prevent

them from playing with the
appliance.

몇 CAUTION

 Create stability for the appli-

ance prior to any work on or
with the appliance to prevent
accidents or damage.

 The water jet that is emitted

from the high-pressure nozzle
results in a repulsion power
acting on the hand spray gun.
Make sure that you have a firm
footing and are also holding the
hand spray gun and spray
lance firmly.

 Never leave the appliance

unattended as long as it is in
operation.

ATTENTION

 In case of extended breaks,

switch the appliance off at the
