•
Damaged components (including plug, electric cable, hose and jet gun) must be replaced
immediately by a technician trained for that purpose or a qualified electrician. Be sure to
use only original parts; hoses and connections are also important for safety. Never carry
out repairs by yourself.
•
Never make any changes to the device, nozzle(s) or any other parts.
•
Never cover the device, nozzle(s) or any other parts when using the device.
Safety before and during operation
•
Use the device only for home use, such as cleaning cars, boats, terraces, walls, garden
equipment, etc.
•
Check the device before each time you use it (including cable, plug, hose and jet gun) for
any visible damage. Check especially the electric cable for faults or cracks. Do not use a
damaged device or one that has not functioned properly when you used last. Give it to
your supplier for repair or replacement.
•
When using the device, unroll the cable entirely to prevent overheating. If an extension
cable is unavoidable, use a cable of adequate thickness: 3x2.5mm². Inadequate
extension cables can be dangerous! The female plug must be waterproof and the
connection must be kept dry. Faulty extension cables are dangerous!
•
Vehicle tyres and/or tyre valves can get damaged by high-pressure jets and can spring
out. The initial sign of this is discolouring of the tyre. Damaged vehicle tyres/tyre valves
involve risk of life. When cleaning, observe a minimum jet distance of 30cm.
•
In case of long breaks, switch off the device using the main switch or pull out the plug
from the socket.
•
Do not use the device in temperatures under 0°C.
•
It is forbidden to use the device in areas or under circumstances that have risk of
explosion.
•
In case of accidents or electricity failure, switch off the device immediately.
•
Use only clean water. If you use water that contains for example sand (from a well or
something similar), you have to install an extra filter.
•
In compliance with valid regulations, the device may not be connected to the drinking
water network without a non-return valve. Make sure that your household water system
to which the high-pressure cleaner is connected is equipped with a non-return valve.
•
Take the device's weight into account when selecting its storage location and during
transport in order to prevent accidents and injuries.
•
Release the residual pressure by squeezing the trigger a bit before you disconnect the
hose from the product.
•
Before each time you use the device and at regular intervals, check whether all the
metal fasteners are sitting well and whether the components of the product are in good
condition; inspect for broken or worn-out parts.
