of the appliance are damaged, e.g. safety devices,
high pressure hose, gun, etc.
•
CAUTION: This appliance has been designed for
use with the detergent provided or the detergent
specified by the manufacturer, such as a neutral
shampoo based on biodegradable anionic surface
active detergents. The use of other detergents or
chemicals may put the appliance's safety at risk.
•
CAUTION: Never use the appliance with people
in the vicinity, unless they are wearing protective
clothing.
•
CAUTION: Do not direct the nozzle toward
mechanical parts containing lubricant grease, as the
grease will dissolve and spread over the surrounding
ground. Vehicle tyres/tyre valves may only be cleaned
from a minimum distance of 30 cm, otherwise the
vehicle tyre/tyre valve could be damaged by the
high-pressure jet. The first indication of this is a
discoloration of the tyre. Damaged vehicle tyres/tyre
valves can be deadly dangerous.
•
CAUTION: High pressure jets may be dangerous
if improperly used. Jets must never be pointed at
people, animals, life electrical equipment or the
appliance itself.
•
CAUTION: The hoses, accessories and high pressure
couplings are important for the appliance's safety. Use
only hoses, accessories and couplings recommended
by the manufacturer (it is extremely important
to protect these components against damage by
avoiding their improper use and protecting them
against bending, knocks and scratches).
•
CAUTION: The gun is fitted with a safety catch.
Whenever use of the machine is interrupted it is
important to operate the safety catch to prevent
accidental activation of the jet.
- Never point the jet at yourself or others to clean
clothing or footwear.
