The user must use the appliance as intended. The
•
person must consider the local conditions and
must pay attention to other persons in the vicinity
when working with the appliance.
Check important components, such as high-pres-
•
sure hose, hand spray gun and safety installations,
for damage prior to every operation. Immediately
replace damaged components. Do not operate ap-
pliance with damaged components.

erly used. The jet may not be directed at persons,
animals, live electrical equipment or at the appli-
ance itself.

•
persons or the user him-/herself to clean clothing
or footwear.
Vehicle tyres/tyre valves are susceptible to dam-
•
age from the high-pressure jet and may burst. The
first indication for this is a discolouration of the
tyre. Damaged vehicle tyres/tyre valves are peril-
ous. Keep a minimum jet distance of 30 cm dur-
ing cleaning!
