If the mains power lead is dam-
aged, to avoid hazards, this
must be replaced either by the
manufacturer or through his
customer service or a similarly
qualified person.
CAUTION!
Unsuitable extension leads can
represent a source of danger.
Always unwind lead from the
reels completely to prevent the
mains power lead overheating.
Connectors and couplings of
power supply cords and exten-
sion leads must be watertight.
When using an extension lead,
check the minimum cross-sec-
tions of the cable:
Cable length
m
Cross section
<16 A
<25 A
up to 20 m
ø1.5mm² ø2.5mm²
20 to 50 m
ø2.5mm² ø4.0mm²
Check the rated voltage of the
high-pressure cleaner before
connecting it to the mains power
supply. Ensure that the voltage
shown on the rating plate cor-
responds to the voltage of the
local mains power supply.
It is important that the electrical
connection for this appliance
has been installed by an electri-
cian and in compliance with IEC
60364 and the country-specific
regulations.
We recommend that the electri-
cal connection to this appliance
should incorporate
– either a fault current circuit
breaker, which cuts off the
mains voltage if the fault
current exceeds 30 mA for
30 ms,
– or an earth resistance meter.
Check that cleaning will not
result in dangerous substanc-
es (e.g. asbestos, oil) being
washed off the object to be
cleaned and harming the envi-
ronment.
Do not clean delicate parts
made of rubber, fabric, etc. with
the 0° jet. Keep some distance
between high pressure nozzle
and surface in order to prevent
the surface from damage.
Do not use the high-pressure
hose for lifting loads.
The maximum permissible
working pressure and tempera-
ture are printed on the high-
pressure hose.
Store the cleaner
where it will not be ex-
posed to frost or use
anti-freeze liquid!
Never operate the cleaner with-
out water. Even brief shortages
of water result in severe dam-
age to the pump seals.
Operation
Keep cabinet closed during op-
eration.
Do not damage the mains pow-
er lead (e.g. by driving over it,
pulling or crushing it).
Disconnect the power cord by
pulling the plug only (do not pull
or tug the power cord).
IMPORTANT!
This appliance has been de-
vised for use with cleansing
agents that are supplied and
recommended by the manufac-
turer. The use of other cleansing
agents or chemicals can impair
the safety of the appliance.
CAUTION!
The appliance is intended to
be used with heating oil EL or
diesel oil.
Unsuitable fuels (e.g.
petrol) must not be used as they
can represent a source of dan-
ger.
If the machine is to be oper-
ated at fuel stations or in other
potentially hazardous areas,
the machine may only be em-
ployed outside the hazard areas
defined in the German „Techni-
cal Guidelines for Inflammable
Fluids“ applicable at the point
of use due to the potential ex-
plosion hazard posed by the
burner.
When setting up the appliance
indoors, always ensure suitable
ventilation and that the exhaust
gases are expelled in a suitable
way. We will be glad to provide
tips for connection systems, on
request.
If the machine is to be con-
nected to a flue gas stack, then
local building regulations must
be observed. We will be glad to
provide tips for connection sys-
tems, on request.
CAUTION!
Beware of hot water and
steam discharge up to
150°C when operating in
steam stage.
CAUTION!
Do not touch or cover
the exhaust. Risk of
burns and fire.
Do not touch, cover or place hose
or cord over the chimney. Danger
for persons, risk of overheating
and fire.
Electrical equipment
CAUTION!
Never spray electrical equip-
ment with water: danger for per-
sons, risk of short-circuiting.
Switching on the cleaner may
cause voltage
fl
uctuations.
Voltage fluctuations should not
occur if the impedance at the
transfer point is less than 0.15
If in doubt ask your local elec-
tricity supplier.
Maintenance and repair
CAUTION!
Always remove the plug from
the mains plug socket before
