Detergents
Warning!
– Unsuitable detergents can cause
damage to health, as well as to the
machine and the object to be
cleaned. Contact a servicing dealer
if in doubt.
– STIHL recommends the use of
genuine STIHL detergents. Follow
the instructions for use.
– Chemical detergents may contain
physiologically harmful (toxic,
caustic, irritant), flammable or
explosive substances. In the event
of skin or eye contact with
detergent, flush the affected body
parts with plenty of clean water
immediately. If detergent is
swallowed, seek medical attention
immediately. Note the
manufacturer's safety data
sheets!
Detergents should always be used in the
proportions specified by the
manufacturer.
Before starting work
Do not connect the high-
pressure cleaner directly
to the drinking water
main.
Only connect the high-pressure cleaner
to the drinking water main in conjunction
with a backflow preventer – see "Special
accessories".
28
Warning!
– If drinking water has passed
through the backflow preventer, it
can no longer be regarded as
drinking water.
Do not use the machine with dirty water.
If there is a risk that dirty water will occur
(e. g., flowing sand), an appropriate
water filter must be used.
Inspecting the high-pressure cleaner
Warning!
– The high-pressure cleaner should
only be used if it is in full working
order – risk of accident!
– It must be possible to move the
switch to the 0 position easily
– The switch must be in the 0 position
– Inspect the high-pressure hose,
spray attachment and safety
mechanisms for damage
– High-pressure hose and spray
attachment in good condition
(clean, moving easily) and correctly
assembled
– For good control of the machine, the
handles should be clean and dry
with no oil or dirt on them
– Never attempt to modify the controls
or safety devices
Electrical connection
Warning!
Minimize the risk of electrical shock:
– Voltage and frequency of the
machine (see rating plate) must
match the voltage and frequency of
the mains supply
– Examine the power cord, power
plug and extension cord for
damage. Damaged cords,
couplings and plugs or power cords
that do not comply with the
regulations must not be used
– Only connect the machine to a
correctly installed power socket
– The insulation on the power cord
and any extension cord, the plug
and the coupling must be fully intact
Warning!
Route the power cord and extension
cord properly:
– Observe the minimum cross-section
of the individual cords – see
"Connecting the machine to the
power supply"
– Route and mark the power cord so
that it cannot become damaged and
no one is endangered – danger of
stumbling!
– The connector and coupling of the
extension cord must be waterproof
or routed in such a way that they
cannot come into contact with water
– the connector and coupling of the
extension cord must not lie in water
– don't let the cord rub against edges
or pointed or sharp objects
– don't squeeze the cord under doors
or windows
