cables or twisted cables increase the risk of electric
shock.
The substitution of the plug or cable should be done
by an approved and homologated after sales service.
We recommend that this machine should be
connected to residual differential whose current is
lower or equal to 30mA.
Always connect the machine to an earthed electric mains.
Never use a damaged cable or a damaged
electric mains, or that does not comply with current
normative or those required for this machine. When
using a electric extension for the cable, make sure
that it has a minimum section of 1.5 mm
should not be longer than 25 metres in length and
homologated for outdoor use. Both the plug and the
base of the electric extension must be waterproof
and should never be submerged in water. The use
of an adequate electric extension will reduce the
risk of electric shock.
Place the electric extension so that it does not hook
itself on branches and other obstacles and ensuring
that it is not in the working area. The cable extension
should always be behind the user.
Always disconnect the machine from the electric
mains before carrying out any maintenance work
on this machine. Only manipulate the machine when
disconnected from the mains.
Do not use this machine if the switch does not
change from closed to open. Any electrical machine
that cannot be controlled by the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
2.5. USAGE AND CARE OF THE MACHINE
Only use this high pressure washer in domestic
conditions to clean chairs, tables, vehicles, terraces,
floors etc. Do not use the mouthpiece closer than
30cm to the surface being cleaned.
The high pressure blast that the machine produces
is dangerous if used unduly. Do not use this
machine to clean people or animals. Do not use this
machine to clean fragile objects or articles that do
not tolerate water. Do not direct the blast from this
machine onto yourself, other people, animals electric
equipment or to the machine itself.
Do not direct the blast produced by this machine to
2
and it
objects that could be a health hazard.
Take extreme precaution when cleaning vehicles
and specifically tyres. The high pressure blast could
damage the tyres or the tyre valves and this could
cause a fatal accident when driving. When cleaning a
vehicle do not place the mouthpiece closer than 30cm
to the surface being cleaned.
Do not high pressure wash any other liquid that is
not water or water with soap. Do not high pressure
solvents, petrol or any other flammable products
because the mist exhaled by the machine is
FLAMMABLE and there exists therefore an extreme
danger of explosion. In any case, these products will
damage the joints and pieces of the pump lowering
the efficiency of the machine.
Make sure you connect the machine to a water source
with sufficient water flow for the machine to operate.
If the water flow is not sufficient, the machines pump
will work in a vacuum thus forcing it, weakening it and
in the long run, breaking it. The temperature of the
water should not be higher than 40C nor a pressure
superior to 7 bar (0.7 Mpa).
