Symbols used to mark in-
structions

Before starting up 
your high-pres-
sure washer for 
the fi rst time, this 
instruction manual 

must be read through carefully. 
Save the instructions for later 
use.

Safety instructions 
marked with this 
symbol must be 
observed to pre-

This symbol is 

used to mark safety 

instructions that 
must be observed 

to prevent damage 

to the machine and its perform-
ance.

This symbol 
indicates tips 
and instructions 

to simplify work and to ensure a 
safe operation.

Do not let children or people 
who have not read the instruc-
tion manual ope rate the ma-
chine.

Before starting up your machine 
please check it carefully for any 
defects. If you fi nd any, do not 
start up your machine and con-
tact your ALTO distributor.

Especially check:

z

 The insulation of the electric 

cable should be faultless 
and without any cracks. If the 
electric cable is damaged, an 
authorized Nilfi sk-ALTO dis-
tributor should replace it.

WARNING!

z

 High pressure jets can be 

dangerous. Never direct the 
water jet at persons, pets, 
live electrical equipment or 
the machine itself.

z

  Never try to clean clothes or 

footwear on yourself or other 
persons.

z

  Hold the spray lance fi rmly 

with both hands. The spray 
lance is affected by a thrust 
of up to 26.5 Nm during ope–
ration.

z

 The operator and anyone in 

the immediate vicinity of the 
site of cleaning should take 
action to protect themselves 
from being struck by debris 
dislodged during operation. 
Wear goggles during opera-
tion.

z

  Never use the machine in 

an environment where there 
could be a danger of explo-
sion. If any doubt arises, 
please contact the local 
 authorities.

z

  It is not allowed to clean as-

bestos- containing surfaces 
with high pressure.

z

 This high pressure washer 

must not be used at tempera-
tures below 0°C.

z

 Never let any persons stay 

under the product when 
stored on the wall.

WARNING!

Inadequate extension cables 
can be dangerous. Cables on 
drums should always be com-
pletely unwinded to prevent the 
cable from overheating.
