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 hose and the surface
when cleaning to avoid any
damage to the surface being
cleaned.
The trigger on the spray gun
must move easily and
automatically return to its
starting position when
released.
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.
Ensure that the high-pressure
hose is not damaged by being
driven over, squashed or
pulled; protect it against heat
and oil.
If the machine is subjected to
unusually high loads for which
it was not designed (e. g.,
heavy impact or a fall), always
check that it is in good
condition before continuing
work - refer also to the chapter
"Before starting work". Also
make certain that the safety
mechanisms are working
properly. Never continue
using a machine that is not in
perfect working order. In case
of doubt, have the unit
checked by your servicing
dealer.
Before leaving the machine
unattended: Shut off the
engine.
Safety equipment
When the safety equipment is
activated, excessive pressure
is returned to the intake side
of the pump via a safety valve.
This safety feature has been
set by the manufacturer and
must not be adjusted.
After finishing work
–
Shut off the engine before
leaving it
–
Disconnect water intake
hose between machine
and water supply
