SPECIFIC SAFETY ADVICE
• Avoid dangerous conditions. Always operate this
product on dry, solid and level ground.
• Never operate this product on slippery, wet, muddy,
or icy surfaces. The operating area should be free
from any obstructions. There should be plenty of
room for handling, and the operator should stay alert
at all times.
• Do not use this product in wet or damp areas or ex-
pose it to rain. Do not use it in areas where fumes
from paint, solvents or flammable liquids pose a po-
tential hazard.
• Inspect this product. Check before turning it on.
Keep guards in place and in working order. Form a
habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from tool area before turning
it on.
• Replace damaged, missing or failed parts before
using it. Make sure all nuts, bolts, screws, hydraulic
fittings, hose clamps, etc. are securely tightened.
Always check the oil level in the oil tank. Never op-
erate this product when it needs to be repaired or
when it is in poor mechanical condition.
• Never move or pull this product while spraying.
• Do not run the engine at a high speed when you are
not using the product.
•
Risk of electric shock!
The water spray
must never be directed towards any elec-
tric wiring, devices, or directly towards the
pressure washer itself, or fatal electric
shock may occur.
• Risk of injury!
Do not direct the dis-
charge stream at people. The
high-pressure jet can be dangerous if mi-
sused, and therefore must not be directed
at people, animals, electrical devices or
the unit itself.
• Risk of explosion!
When a combustible liquid is
sprayed, there can be danger of fire or explosion,
especially in a closed area. Therefore, do not spray
flammable liquids. Do not use acids and solvents
with this product either. These products can cause
physical injuries to the operator and irreversible
damage to the product.
• Learn how to stop the product and release the
pressure quickly. Familiarize yourself with the con-
trols.
