Safety instructions
Danger
Never touch the mains plug and the
socket with wet hands.
The appliance must not be used if the
power cord or important parts of the appliance, e.g. high-pressure hoses, trigger gun or safety devices are damaged.
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.
Check the high-pressure hose for dam-
age before every use. Please arrange
for the immediate exchange of a damaged high-pressure hose.
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.
High-pressure jets can be
dangerous if improperly
used. The jet must not be
directed at persons, animals, live electrical equipment or at the
appliance itself.
The high-pressure jet must not be di-
rected 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 in-
cludes petrol, paint thinner and heating
oil. The spray mist thus generated is
highly inflammable, explosive and poi-
sonous. Do not use acetone, undiluted
acids and solvents as they are aggres-
sive towards the materials from which
the appliance is made.

es, fixtures and couplings recommend-
ed by the manufacturer.
