2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE STARTING UP YOUR PRESSURE WASHER PLEASE
CHECK YOU HAVE THE FOLLOWING:
We recommend you purchase these items from a reputable store
• RCD plug and socket that will interrupt electrical supply in an
emergency
• A typical garden hose (minimum length 7.5 metres) with suitable
hose connection (Hoselock/Gardena type) to match the coupling
on the machine (hose and connector not supplied).
• The mains voltage and supply indicated on the Rating Plate of the
machine corresponds with that of the power source
• The insulation of the supply cable is not damaged
• Only earthed sockets should be used
• If you are using an extension cable it must be completely unwound
from the cable drum and be the correct diameter:
10 meter length of cable should have a cross section of 1.5 mm²
30 meter length of cable should have a cross section of 2.5 mm²
Safety Assurance
As an added precaution, your pressure washer is fitted with a safety
locking device on the Spray Gun.
AFTER USE, ALWAYS REMOVE THE PLUG FROM THE SOCKET
BEFORE CLEANING YOUR PRESSURE WASHER.
