Use only a 3-wire extension cord that
has a 3-blade grounding plug, and a 3-
slot receptacle that accepts the plug
from the product. When using an ex-
tension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your prod-
uct draws.
For lengths less than 80 ft, No. 16
AWG extension cords shall be used.
For lengths less than 130 ft, No. 14
AWG extension cords shall be used.
For lengths less than 200 ft, No. 12
AWG extension cords shall be used.
An undersized cord results in an drop
in line voltage and loss of power and
overheating. Do not use damaged ex-
tension cords. Examine extension cord
before using and replace if damaged.
Do not abuse extension cord and do
not yank on any cord to disconnect.
Keep cord away from heat and sharp
edges. Always disconnect the exten-

WARNING
Possible hazardous situation that could
lead to severe injury or even death.
CAUTION
Possible hazardous situation that could
lead to mild injury to persons or dam-
age to property.
DANGER
Risk of injury on account of flying dry
ice pellets. Do not direct the jet pistol
on persons. Keep third persons away
from the place of use and when the ma-
chine is being operated (by cordoning
off the area).
Do not touch/hold the nozzle or the dry
ice jet when the machine is running.
DANGER
Risk of suffocation on account of car-
bon dioxide. The dry ice pellets are
made of solidified carbon dioxide. The
carbon dioxide content in the air at the
place where the machine is used will
increase when the machine is running.
Ensure adequate ventilation at the
place of use; if possible, use an alarm
to warn persons. Symptoms of high
levels of carbon dioxide in the air that is
breathed in:
–
3...5%: headache, faster breathing.
–
7...10%: headache, nausea and
perhaps even unconsciousness.
If any of these symptoms occur, please
switch off the machine immediately and
get a breath of fresh air; improve the
ventilation before starting work again
with the machine or use respirators.
Follow the safety specifications of the
manufacturer of dry ice.
DANGER
Risk of injury on account of electro-
static discharge; risk of damage to the
electronic components. The object be-
ing cleaned can get charged electrical-
ly during the cleaning process. Provide

cleaned and ensure that the earthing
remains intact during the entire clean-
ing process.
DANGER
Risk of injury on account of electric
shock. Pull the plug out of the socket
before opening the control cabinet.
DANGER
Risk of cold burns. Dry ice has a tem-
perature of -79 °C. Never touch dry ice
or cold parts of the machine without ap-
propriate protection.
DANGER
Risk of injury on account of flying dry
ice pellets or dirt particles. Wear close
