Cleaning Systems Safety Manual
Hazardous substances (such as
asbestos or oil) must not be allowed to
escape into the environment unchecked
when working with the machine.
The applicable environmental
regulations must be observed without
fail!
Surfaces of asbestos cement must
never be cleaned with a high-pressure
jet, as hazardous, breathable asbestos
fibres may be released in addition to the
dirt. The danger is greatest when the
washed surface has dried.
The machine must
immediately be
unplugged from the
mains supply if the power
cable is damaged -
danger due to electric
shock.
Delicate parts made of rubber, fabric or
similar materials must not be cleaned
with a pencil jet, e.g. from the rotary
nozzle. Maintain a sufficient distance
between the high-pressure nozzle and
the surface in order to avoid damaging
the surface to be cleaned.
The trigger on the spray gun must move
easily and automatically return to its
starting position when released.
Always check that the machine is in
good working order before starting work.
Pay particular attention to the power
cable, mains plug, high-pressure hose,
spray attachment and safety
mechanisms.
The machine may only be operated in an
upright position.
Do not cover the machine and ensure
adequate motor ventilation.
Keep the high-pressure cleaner as far
away as possible from the object being
cleaned.
Ensure that the power cable is not
damaged by being driven over,
squashed or pulled, etc.
Never disconnect the machine by pulling
the cable out of the socket: always grip
the plug itself.
The power cable and mains plug must
never be touched with wet hands!
Always unroll the power cable from the
cable drum completely to avoid all risk of
fire due to overheating.
Hold the spray attachment firmly with
both hands in order safely to withstand
the kickback force and additional torque
produced when using spray attachments
with angled spray lance.
Always ensure a firm and safe footing.
The voltage and frequency specified for
the machine (see rating plate) must
match those of the mains power supply.
Safety device
When the safety device is tripped, any
impermissibly high pressure will be
diverted back to the intake side of the
high-pressure pump via an overflow
valve.
This safety device is set by the
manufacturer and must not be adjusted.
