Stihl RE 661 Notice D'emploi page 43

Never direct the high-
pressure jet against your-
self or other people, not
even to clean clothing or
shoes – risk of injury!
Do not direct the high-pressure jet
against animals.
Do not direct the high-pressure jet onto
places you cannot see.
Children, animals and bystanders must
remain at a distance.
Hazardous substances (e. g., asbestos
or oil) must not be allowed to escape into
the environment unchecked when
working with the machine. The
applicable environmental regulations
must be observed without fail.
Surfaces of asbestos cement must
never be cleaned with a high-pressure
jet. Hazardous, breathable asbestos
fibers may be released in addition to the
dirt. The danger is greatest when the
washed surface has dried.
Never draw in fluids containing solvents
or undiluted acids and solvents
(e. g., gasoline, heating oil, paint thinner
or acetone). These substances damage
the materials used in the machine. The
spray is highly combustible, explosive
and poisonous.
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.
RE 661, RE 661 PLUS, RE 961 PLUS
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 power cable and the
high-pressure hose are not damaged by
being driven over, squashed or pulled;
protect them against heat and oil.
Do not touch the power cord with the
high-pressure jet.
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
Never unplug the power plug by pulling
on the cord: always grip the plug itself.
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".
In particular, make certain that the safety
mechanisms are working properly.
Never use the machine if it is not in good
condition. Consult a servicing dealer if in
doubt. STIHL recommends STIHL
servicing dealers.
Before leaving the machine:
– Switch off machine
– Unplug the power plug from the
socket
– Disconnect water intake hose
between machine and water supply
Maintenance and Repairs
Before carrying out any
work on the power tool:
Disconnect the plug from
the power supply.
Service the machine regularly. Do not
attempt any maintenance or repair work
not described in the instruction manual.
Have all other work performed by a
servicing dealer.
STIHL recommends that you have
servicing and repair work carried out
exclusively by an authorized STIHL
servicing dealer. STIHL dealers are
regularly given the opportunity to attend
training courses and are supplied with
the necessary technical information.
Only use high-quality replacement parts
in order to avoid the risk of accidents
and damage to the machine. If you have
any questions in this respect, consult a
servicing dealer.
STIHL recommends the use of genuine
STIHL replacement parts. These parts
are specifically designed to match your
machine model and meet your
performance requirements.
