WARNING:
Wear ear protection.
WARNING:
The noise emission during actual
use of the power tool can differ from the declared
value(s) depending on the ways in which the
tool is used especially what kind of workpiece is
processed.
WARNING:
Be sure to identify safety mea-
sures to protect the operator that are based on an
estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of
use (taking account of all parts of the operating
cycle such as the times when the tool is switched
off and when it is running idle in addition to the
trigger time).
Vibration
The vibration total value (tri-axial vector sum) deter-
mined according to EN60335-2-79:
Vibration emission (a ) : 2.5 m/s
h
2
Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s
NOTE: The declared vibration total value(s) has been
measured in accordance with a standard test method
and may be used for comparing one tool with another.
NOTE: The declared vibration total value(s) may also
be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

Work area safety
1. Keep operating area clear of all persons.
2. Do not overreach or stand on unstable sup-
ports. Keep good footing and balance at all
times.
3. Always place the high pressure washer body
on a level and stable surface. Avoid areas
where the ejected water will run or pool.
4. Before cleaning, check the surroundings and
objects to be cleaned. High pressure jets can
scrape away paint or other surface treatments
including toxic chemicals. Take the preventive
measures if necessary.
5. Be careful not to trip over by the hose of the
high pressure washer. Always be aware of the
configuration of the hose during operation.
6. During use, a small amount of water will come
out from the bottom of the high pressure washer.
Avoid locating the high pressure washer in the
areas where you don't want to wet.
Personal safety
1. To protect against the jet and objects by the
jet, operators should wear appropriate cloth-
ing such as safety boots, safety gloves, safety
helmets with visors, hearing protection, etc.
2. Do not use the high pressure washer within range
of persons unless they wear protective clothing.
3. To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision
is necessary when the product is used near
children.
4. If connection is made to a potable water sys-
tem, the system shall be protected against
backflow.
5. Water that has flowed through backflow pre-
venter is considered to be non-potable.
Electrical safety
1. Never touch battery cartridges with wet hands.
2. Do not use the machine if the important parts of
the machine are damaged, e.g. safety devices,
high pressure hoses, or the trigger gun.
Power tool use and care
1. Read all the instructions before using the
product.
2. Know how to stop the high pressure washer
and bleed pressures quickly. Be thoroughly
familiar with the controls.
3. High pressure jets can be dangerous if mis-
used. The jet must not be directed at people,
live electrical equipment, or the machine itself.
This machine is not intended for use by per-
4.
sons (including children) with reduced physi-
cal, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge.
5. Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
6. Do not spray flammable and/or toxic liquids.
This may cause an explosion, intoxication, or
damage to the machine.
7. Do not direct the jet against yourself or others
in order to clean clothes or foot-wear.
8. High pressure hoses, fittings and couplings
are important for the safety of the machine.
Use only hoses, fittings and couplings recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
