GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING: WATER AT HIGH PRESSURE CAN BE DANGEROUS AND CAN
CAUSE DAMAGE IF THE OPERATOR IS CARELESS. NEVER ALLOW ANYONE
TO OPERATE THIS PRESSURE WASHER UNLESS THEY ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
1. NEVER direct the spray towards any person or animal.
2. NEVER direct the spray towards electrical wiring or equipment.
3. NEVER hold your finger over the high pressure nozzle.
4. NEVER allow children or untrained personnel to use this machine.
5. NEVER operate the machine with any of the covers removed.
6. NEVER attempt any repairs to this machine. Always refer to your Clarke dealer.
7. NEVER supply any liquid other than water to the water inlet.
8. NEVER use the detergent bottle to introduce flammable liquids/solvents, e.g. paint
thinners, petrol, oil as there is a risk of explosion.
9. NEVER direct the jet at electrical equipment or the machine itself.
10. NEVER use the pressure washer if the supply cable or important parts of the machine
are damaged.
11. ALWAYS release any residual pressure in the system by turning off the water supply
and operating the trigger before disconnecting any hose or accessory.
12. ALWAYS keep the machine itself dry and well clear of water spray.
13. ALWAYS wear protective clothing and safety glasses. Loose particles and other
debris may be propelled at high speed by the water jet.
14. ALWAYS grip the gun firmly and expect the spray gun to 'kick' when starting.
15. ALWAYS respect the requirements of the local water company. Pressure washers may
only be connected to the mains drinking water supply, if a system separator (known
as a backflow preventer) is installed in the supply hose.
16. ALWAYS disconnect from the water supply, and ensure the system is completely
drained when not in use. Store in a cool dry location.
17. ONLY use chemical cleaning agents (detergents), that are approved for pressure
washers. CLARKE Traffic Film Remover or CLARKE Wash and Wax (available from your
dealer), is recommended.
18. WARNING: High pressure water jets can be dangerous if subject to misuse. The jet
must not be directed at a person or anything that they are wearing.
19. WARNING: High pressure hoses, fittings and couplings are important for the safety of
the machine. Use only hoses, fittings and couplings recommended by the
manufacturer.
20. WARNING: Water that has flowed through a system separator (known as a backflow
preventer) is considered non-drinkable.
