for the safety of the appliance. Only use hoses, fi ttings
and couplings recommended
by the manufacturer.
Do not use the appliance
if a supply cord or important parts of appliance are
damaged, e.g. safety device ,

with high pressure.
This high pressure washer
must not be used at temperatures below 0°C.
WARNING!
Inadequate extension cables
can be dangerous. Cables on
drums should always be completely unwinded to prevent the
cable from overheating.
If an extension cable is used,
the plug and the socket must be
waterproof and comply with the
below-mentioned requirements
for length and cable dimensions.
1.0 mm² max. 12.5 m
1.5 mm² max. 20 m
2.5 mm² max. 30 m
If the electric cable is
damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer
or his service agent or similarly qualifi ed person in order

Mains power connection
The following should be observed when connecting the
high pressure washer to the
electric installation:
The electric installation shall
be made by a certifi ed electrician and comply with IEC
364.
It is recommended that the
electric supply to this appliance should include either a
residual current device that
will interrupt the supply if the
leakage current to earth exceeds 30 mA for 30 ms.
Water connection
Connection to the public
mains according to regulations.
Inlet hose can be connected
to the water mains with a
max. inlet pressure of 10
bars.
This high pressure washer is
only allowed to be connected
with the drinking water mains,
when an appropri-
ate backfl ow preventer has been
installed, Type BA
according to EN
1717. The backfl ow preventer
can be ordered under number
106411177. The length of the
hose between the backfl ow
preventer and the high pressure washer must be at least
10 metres to absorb possible
pressure peaks (min diameter
½ inch).
Operation by suction (for example from a rainwater vessel)
is carried out without backfl ow
preventer. Recommended suction set: 126411387.
As soon as water has fl own
through the BA valve, this water
is not considered to be drinking
water any more.
IMPORTANT! Only use water without any impurities. If
there is a risk of running sands
in the inlet water (i.e. from your
own well), an additional fi lter
should be mounted.
Safety devices
The unloader valve can re-
duce pressure if it exceeds
pre-set values.
Locking device on spray handle
(7a) (see illustration at the end
of this manual):
The spray handle features a
locking device. When the pawl
is activated, the spray handle
cannot be ope rated.
Thermal sensor:
A thermal sensor protects the
motor against overloading. The
machine will restart after a few
minutes when the thermal sensor has cooled.
