MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Use only original manufacturer’s
replacement parts, accessories, and
attachments. Failure to do so can cause
possible injury and poor performance, and
may void your warranty.
WARNING
Servicing requires extreme care and
knowledge and should be performed only by
a qualified service technician. For service,
bring the product to an authorised service
centre. When servicing, use only original
replacement parts.
■ Stop the product, disconnect from the
power supply, and allow the product to cool
down. Disconnect the product from the
water supply before:
● cleaning the product
● maintaining the product
● replacing spare parts
■ You may make adjustments or repairs
described in this manual. For other repairs,
contact an authorised service centre.
■ Regularly inspect and maintain the high
pressure cleaner for safe operation. RYOBI
recommends inspecting the product every
6 months.
■ Check all nuts, bolts, and screws at frequent
intervals for proper tightness to ensure the
product is in safe working condition. Any
part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorised
service centre.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Even when the product is used as prescribed,
it is still impossible to completely eliminate
certain residual risk factors. The following
hazards may arise in use and the operator
should pay special attention to avoid the
following:
■ Injury caused by the high-pressure jet
– Avoid pointing the high-pressure jet to
people, animals, and to yourself.
■ Injury caused by kickback
– Always hold the handle or the trigger
wand firmly with your two hands.
■ Injury caused by inhalation of aerosols
– Wear appropriate respiratory mask.
■ Injury caused by exposure to noise
– Wear ear protection.
RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from
handheld tools may contribute to a condition
called Raynaud’s Syndrome. Symptoms may
include tingling, numbness, and blanching of
the fingers, usually apparent upon exposure
to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold
and dampness, diet, smoking, and work
practices are all thought to contribute to the
development of these symptoms. There are
measures that can be taken by the operator to
possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
■ Keep your body warm in cold weather.
When operating the product, wear gloves
to keep the hands and wrists warm.
■ After each period of operation, exercise to
increase blood circulation.
■ Take frequent work breaks. Limit the
amount of exposure per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this
condition, immediately discontinue use and
see your physician.
WARNING
Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by
prolonged use of a tool. When using any
tool for prolonged periods, ensure you take
regular breaks.
