WARNING!
During cleaning, maintenance or when
replacing parts, the machine must be disconnected from its
power source by removing the battery.
m
WARNING!
High-pressure hoses, fittings, and
couplings are important for the safe operation of the appliance.
Use only hoses, fittings, and couplings recommended by the
manufacturer.
m
WARNING!
Electrical Shock Hazard – Before starting
up your machine, please check it carefully for any defects. If
you find any, do not start up your machine and contact your
distributor.
IMPORTANT:
Only use water without any impurities.
If there is a risk of running sand into the inlet water (i.e. from
your own well), an additional filter should be installed.
•
Check for damaged parts – Do not use the appliance if
any important parts of the appliance are damaged (e.g.
safety devices, high-pressure hoses, trigger gun).
• This cordless high-pressure power washer must not be
used at temperatures below 32ºF (0°C).
• Keep the machine on a stable, flat surface during operation,
handling, transportation, and storage. Sudden overturn of
the machine can cause bodily injury.
• In the event of an accident or breakdown, switch off the
machine immediately. (If contact with detergent occurs,
rinse with an abundance of clean water.)
Battery & Charger
Safety Instructions
NOTE: This unit is a core tool. The battery and the charger
are not included. They must be purchased separately. Model
SPX6001C-CT is compatible with the following batteries
(models iBAT40, iBAT40XR and iBAT40XRP) and chargers
(models iCHRG40 and iCHRG40-DPC). See page 19 for more
information.
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery
pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe,
durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially
formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded.
This data is then used exclusively to be able to assemble the
best possible battery packs.
Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be
exercised when handling batteries. The following points must
be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only
be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling
of the battery pack can cause cell damage.
IMPORTANT!
Analyses confirm that incorrect use and poor
care of high-performance batteries are the main factors
responsible for personal and/or product damage.
m
WARNING!
Use only approved replacement batteries;
other batteries may damage the pressure washer and cause it
to malfunction, which can lead to serious personal injury.
m
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of injury, only charge
your iONMAX 40 V System lithium-iON battery pack in the
compatible iONMAX charger (model iCHRG40). Other types of
chargers present risk of fire, personal injury and damage. Do
not wire a battery pack to a power supply plug or car cigarette
lighter. Such misuse will permanently disable or damage the
battery pack.
•
Avoid dangerous environments – Do not charge the
battery pack in rain, snow or in damp or wet locations.
Do not use the battery pack or charger in the presence of
explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust or flammable
materials) because sparks may be generated when inserting
or removing the battery pack, which could lead to a fire.
•
Charge in a well-ventilated area – Do not block the
charger vents. Keep them clear to allow for proper
ventilation. Do not allow smoking or open flames near a
charging battery pack. Vented gases may explode.
NOTE: The safe temperature range for the battery is -4°F
(-20°C) to 113°F (45°C). Do not charge the battery outside
in freezing weather; charge it at room temperature.
•
Maintain charger cord – When unplugging the charger, pull
the plug, not the cord, from the receptacle to reduce the
risk of damage to the electrical plug and cord. Never carry
the charger by its cord or yank it by the cord to disconnect
it from the receptacle. Keep the cord away from heat, oil
and sharp edges. Make sure the cord will not be stepped
on, tripped over or subjected to damage or stress when the
charger is in use. Do not use the charger with a damaged
cord or plug. Replace a damaged charger immediately.
•
Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely
necessary – Using the wrong, damaged or improperly
wired extension cord poses a risk of fire and electric shock.
If an extension cord must be used, plug the charger into a
properly wired 16 gauge or larger extension cord with the
female plug matching the male plug on the charger. Make
sure that the extension cord is in good electrical condition.
•
Charger iCHRG40 is rated for 120 volt AC only – The
charger must be plugged into an appropriate receptacle.
•
Use only recommended attachments – Use of an
attachment not recommended or sold by the battery
charger or battery pack manufacturer may result in risk of
fire, electric shock or personal injury.
•
Unplug charger when not in use – Make sure to remove
battery packs from unplugged chargers.
m
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
always unplug the charger before performing any cleaning
or maintenance. Do not allow water to flow into the charger.
Use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) to reduce shock
hazards.
