13. Hold the pistol and lance with both hands during
use.
14. Do not set up the unit too close to where you
want to clean.
15. Automobiles, tractors, motorcycles, etc. must
only be cleaned where an oil separator is
installed at the sewer drain.
16. Use only original spare parts from the
manufacturer.
Instructions for the operator
Please observe the following additional points when
using the high-pressure cleaner!
Noise:
Wear officially approved ear muffs when working
with the unit.
Risk of injury:
Never point the water jet at persons or animals.
Electric shock:
Be sure to pull out the mains plug before
carrying out any maintenance work and before
opening the casing. Never point the water jet at
electrical equipment.
Cleaning agents:
When working with cleaning agents, always
follow the manufacturer´s instructions.
Inspection:
Have a qualified workshop inspect the unit
according to how heavily it is used but at least
once every year. Replace any faulty parts such
as the power cable and hose with original spare
parts.
Power connection
You are to connect the cleaner only to a properly
installed mains socket with earthing contact. If in
doubt, consult an electrician.
Compare the data on the unit´s rating plate with the
data of your own mains supply to make sure that the
cleaner can be operated from your mains, and install
a 16 A mains fuse if not already available. Only now
are you allowed to insert the plug in the mains
socket.
To switch on the high-pressure cleaner, simply press
the rocker switch at the rear.
The cleaner is protected against overloading.
If overloading occurs, the electric current is switched
off automatically to prevent the motor winding from
burning out. For safety reasons, you are required to
wait approximately 2-3 minutes before you can
switch on the cleaner again after the automatic
cut-out has responded. Rectify the cause of the
overloading first.
To be able to switch the unit back on again you must
always turn off the switch first. After the mandatory
waiting period has elapsed, you can then put the unit
back into operation by pressing the rocker switch.
When using extension cables, please remember to
protect the connecting socket from moisture.
Damaged cables
It often happens that the insulation on the power
supply cable becomes damaged.
Common causes are:
Running over the cable with heavy equipment
Pinching the cable in doors or windows
Cracking due to ageing
Kinking due to improper fastening or routing of
the cable
Cables with damaged insulation must never be used
because they are extremely dangerous!
Cables, plugs and portable socket outlets must
comply with the following conditions:
Power supply cables for high-pressure cleaners must
be rubber-insulated.
The cables must be at least of type H07RN-F with
3 cores.
The type designation must be printed on the cable.
Purchase only cables with printed identification
marks!
Plugs and portable outlets must be made of rubber.
The cables should be kept as short as possible.
Longer cables require conductors with larger
cross-sections.
See the table „Extension cable data“ for length
specifications.
Power supply cables must be inspected regularly.
Always remove the plug from the mains socket
before inspecting cables. Unroll cables completely
from cable drums. Check the cables where they
enter plugs and portable outlets to ensure that they
are not kinked.
Take the safety precaution of using highly sensitive
residual-current devices with nominal currents of 10
