machine without first dumping any residual water pressure by first
pulling the trigger gun (Engine stopped)

Never use this equipment in areas of poor lighting.

Always wear eye and ear protection when using this machine.

Always keep the working area clear of people and animals
Always stay alert and watch what you are doing.

and balance at all times.

Never operate this machine from ladders or step ladders.

Never allow the machine to run dry of water or serious permanent

damage will be caused to the pump unit.

Never run the machine for more than 5 minutes with the trigger gun
in the closed position, this could result in a rapid rise in the water
temperature, which may damage the seals in the pump.

Never operate this machine under the influence of alcohol or drugs,
(many forms of medication can cause drowsiness) or when tired.

Never connect the machine to a hot water supply unless it is
specifically designed to handle hot water.

machine.

Never operate on any inclined or unstable surface.

Always drain the water from the hoses and pump on completion of

work, especially in cold weather, to prevent serious damage do not
allow the machine to freeze, protect from Frost.

Never use ether based cold start aids in aerosol cans to aid cold or
difficult starting.

SAFE WORKING 9

Never smoke whilst filling the fuel tank, mop up any fuel spills
immediately and in any event before running the engine and allow
time for any vapours from the spilled fuel to disperse before starting
the engine.

Never run the engine in an enclosed or confined area, exhaust fumes
in enclosed areas can kill.

Never stop diesel engines by means of the decompression lever,
serious damage can be caused to the cylinder head, piston and
valves.

Always avoid contact with the exhaust muffler, this can get very hot
when the engine is running and remains so for some time afterwards.

Always “dump” residual water pressure from the system before
leaving the machine. With the engine stopped pull the trigger until all
pressure is dissipated

Never leave the machine unattended with pressure in the water
system.

Always, where possible, work on or close to engines or machinery
when carrying out servicing or any maintenance, only when they are
stopped, if this is not practical, remember to keep tools, test
equipment and all parts of your person well away from moving parts.

Always wear correctly fitting clothing when carrying out servicing,
loose or baggy clothing can be extremely dangerous when working
on running engines or machinery.

Always “dump” pressure from the water system before carrying out
any kind of maintenance or adjustment.

Never allow unqualified personnel to attempt to repair, remove or
replace any part of the machine.

Always obtain advice before mixing oils; some are incompatible, if in
doubt completely drain, flush and refill.

SAFE WORKING 10

Many liquids used in this machine are harmful if taken internally or
splashed into the eyes. In the event of accidentally swallowing oils or
fuels, seek qualified medical assistance and advice.

Always dispose of waste oils and fuels into designated waste oil
storage tanks. If storage tanks are not available, consult your
distributor or local authority for the addresses of local designated
disposal points. Improperly discarded waste oils pose a threat to
wildlife. It is illegal to dispose of waste oil into drains, or water
courses or to bury it. The Environment Agency have the power to
impose heavy fines for breaches of the above advice.

Never allow oils and fuels to come into regular contact with skin.
This can lead to serious skin diseases, including, medical evidence
suggests, skin cancer. ALWAYS wear protective gloves when
handling oils and fuels whether topping up, draining or refilling.

Always wash your hands if oils or fuels come into contact with the
skin.

Always store fuels in small quantities in the correct specially
designed containers, which can be securely fastened. Store fuel in a
cool, well ventilated store away from sources of ignition.

Always top up the fuel tank at the end of a working day or shift to
prevent the formation of condensation on the inside of the fuel tank.

Always ensure that any Warning, Safety or Advisory Decals attached
to the machine are legible and clean, replace if damaged, defaced or
missing.

DIESEL POWERED UNITS ONLY

To avoid damage to the water pump and gearbox never allow the
engine to run on idle/tick over speed for prolonged periods of time.

ELECTRICAL STARTING SYSTEMS

Starting engines fitted flywheel charge windings with the battery
disconnected will cause irreparable damage unless the stator leads
to the rectifier/regulator have been removed.

SAFE WORKING 11

ELECTRICAL STARTING SYSTEMS (Continued)

Never remove any electrical cable while the battery is connected in

the circuit.

Only disconnect the battery with the engine stopped and all switches
in the off position

Always ensure that cables are fitted to their correct terminal, a short
circuit or reversal of polarity will ruin diodes and transistors.

Never connect a battery into the system without checking that the
voltage and polarity are correct.

Never flash any connection to check the current flow.

Never experiment with any adjustments or repairs to the system.
Always disconnect battery and charge windings before commencing

any electric welding when a pole strap/earth lead is connected
directly or indirectly to the engine.

Batteries contain sulphuric acid, which can cause severe burns, if
acid is splashed onto the ski, eyes or clothes flush with copious
amounts of fresh water and seek immediate medical aid.
