Danger
The appliance contains hot sur-
faces that can lead to burn inju-
ries.
During burner operation, you must keep a
minimum distance of 1 meter from flam-
mable objects!
Never touch the mains plug and the sock-
et with wet hands.
The appliance must not be used if the
power cord or important parts of the appli-
ance, e.g. high-pressure hoses, trigger
gun or safety devices are damaged.
Check the power cord and mains plug for
damage before every use. If the power
cord is damaged, please arrange for it to
be replaced immediately by an authorised
repair agent or a skilled electrician
Check the high-pressure hose for damage
before every use. Please arrange for the
immediate replacement 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 are-
as (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 di-
rected at persons, animals,
live electrical equipment or at the appli-
ance itself.
The high-pressure jet must not be direct-
ed at other persons or directed by the user
at him/herself to clean clothing or foot-
wear.
Never use the appliance to clean objects
containing hazardous substances (e.g.
asbestos).
Vehicle tyres or tyre valves are suscepti-
ble 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 dan-
gerous. 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 high-
ly inflammable, explosive and poisonous.
Do not use acetone, undiluted acids and
solvents as they are damaging to the ma-
terials from which the appliance is made.
