only hoses, fittings and couplings
recommended by the manufacturer.
WARNING:
Inadequate
extension
cables
can
be
dangerous.
Cables
on
reels
should
always
be
completely
unwinded
to
prevent
the
cable
from
overheating.
If
an
extension
cable
is
used,
the
plug
and
the
socket
must
be
waterproof
and
comply
with
the
below-mentioned
requirements
for
length
and
cable
dimensions.

If the electric cable is damaged, it
must be replaced by a service agent
or similarly qualified person in order
to avoid a hazard.
MAINS POWER CONNECTION
The following should be observed when
connecting the high pressure washer to
the electric installation:
The electric supply connection shall
be made by a qualified electrician
and comply with IEC 60364-1
It is recommended that the electric
supply to this appliance should
include either a residual current
device that will interrupt the supply
if the leakage current to earth
exceeds 30 mA for 30 ms.
WATER CONNECTION
Connection to the public mains
according to regulations.
Inlet hose can be connected to the
water mains with a max. inlet
pressure of 10 bars.
For European use, only
allowable to be connected
with the drinking water
mains, when an appropriate mains
backflow preventer has been installed,
Type BA according to EN 1717
.
The
length
of
the
hose
between
the
backflow
preventer
and
the
high
pressure
washer
must
be
at
least
10
metres
to
absorb
possible
pressure
peaks
(min
diameter
½
inch).
Operation
by
suction
(for
example
from
a
rainwater
vessel)
is
carried
out
without
backflow
preventer.
As
soon
as
water
has
flown
through
the
BA
valve,
this
water
is
not
considered
to
be
drinking
water
any
more.
IMPORTANT!
Only
use
water
without
any
impurities.
If
there
is
a
risk
of
sand
particles
in
the
inlet
water
(i.e.
from
your
own
well),
an
additional
filter
should
be
mounted.
SAFETY
DEVICES
The unloader valve can reduce
pressure if it exceeds pre-set values.
Locking device on trigger gun (8) (see
illustration at the beginning of this
manual): The trigger gun (8) features
a locking device (9). When the knob
is activated, the trigger gun (11)
cannot be operated.
THERMAL
SENSOR
A thermal sensor protects the motor
against overloading. The machine will
restart after a few minutes when the
thermal sensor has cooled.
