Safety Instructions
The operation of the device in hazardous locations is not ad-
missible.
Please comply with the corresponding safety instructions if
you use the appliance in danger areas (e.g. filling stations).
Do not turn on the appliance if the power supply line or impor-
tant components of the appliance, such as safety compon-
ents, high-pressure hoses, spray jet, are damaged.
Warning:
High-pressure hoses, fittings, and couplings are of
importance for the appliance safety. Please use only the de-
livered accessories and original spare parts from the manuf-
acturer.
The appliance is not intended for use by young children or
infirm persons without supervision.
Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do
not play with the appliance.
The operator must use the appliance properly. He must take
the local conditions into consideration and must pay attention
to third persons, in particular children, while working with the
appliance.
Warning:
Do not use the appliance if third persons are within
the reach of the appliance unless such persons wear protec-
tive clothes.
Warning:
High-pressure jets may be dan-
gerous if they are used improperly.
The jet must not be directed at people, animals, active elec-
trical equipment, or the appliance itself.
Never direct the jet at yourself or third persons to clean clothes
or shoes.
Never use the appliance to spray objects containing hazar-
dous substances (e.g. asbestos).
Warning:
Vehicle tyres/tyre valves may be damaged and burst
by the high-pressure jet. A first sign is the discoloration of the tyre.
Damaged vehicle tyres/tyre valves are hazardous. Always per-
form the cleaning with a minimum distance of 30 cm.
Cleaning operations during which oil saturated waste water is
generated, such as engine cleaning and underbody cleaning,
may only be performed in cleaning locations that are equipped
with an oil separator.
If you clean varnished surfaces, please respect a minimum
distance of 30 cm to avoid damages.
Never take in solvent-containing liquids or undiluted acids and
solvents! These include, for example, benzene, paint thinner,
or heating oil. The spray is highly inflammable, explosive, and
toxic. Do not use acetone, undiluted acids, and solvents as
they affect the materials used on the appliance.
If required, wear appropriate protective clothes and glasses to
protect yourself from return spray.
Never leave the appliance unattended as long as it turned on.
Warning
: Use only regular cleaning agents that are specially
indicated for use in high pressure cleaning machines. Please
also follow the statutory regulations.
Safety Devices
Safety devices are intended to ensure the protection from injuries
and must not be modified or circumvented.
Overflow Valve with Pressure Switch
When the lever located on the trigger gun is released, the pres-
sure switch turns off the pump, and the high-pressure jet comes
to a stop. When the lever is pulled, the pressure switch turns the
pump on again. In addition, the overflow valve ensures that the
admissible operating pressure is not exceeded.
Safety Button
The safety button located on the trigger gun ensures that the
appliance is not switched on inadvertently.

connection line that is available from the manufacturer or his
customer service.
Please make sure that the connection or extension lines are
not damaged by being ran over, pulled or dragged. Protect the
connection lines from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
Never touch the mains plug and the socket with wet hands.
The connection between connection line and extension line
must not lie in the water.
All current-carrying components within the working area must
be jet-proof.
- The appliance may only be connected to an electrical connec-
tion that was performed by an electrician according to IEC 60364.
- Only connect the appliance to alternating current. The voltage
must comply with the voltage specified on the typeplate.
- Minimum fuse protection of the socket 10 A (delay-action fuse).
- To avoid electric accidents, we recommend to use sockets with
a series connected residual current operated device (rated
breaking current max. 30 mA).
-
Warning:
Inappropriate extension lines may be dangerous. If
you work outside, only use extension lines that are approved
and specifically labelled and provide of a sufficient conductor
cross section:
1 to 10 m:
1.5 mm²
10 to 30 m:
2.5 mm²
- The plug and the coupling of an extension line must be water-
proof.
- Always unwind the extension line completely from the cable
drum.
Connection to the Water Conduit
Please observe the provisions of the local water supply company.
Only use supply hoses (not included in the delivery) with the fol-
