EnGLIsh
Safety of others
• This tool is not intended for use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack
of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the tool by a
person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
Vibration
The declared vibration emission values stated in the technical
data and the declaration of conformity have been measured
in accordance with a standard test method provided by
EN60335-2-79 and may be used for comparing one tool with
another. The declared vibration emission value may also be used in
a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING: The vibration emission value during actual
use of the Pressure Washer can differ from the declared
value depending on the ways in which the tool is used. The
vibration level may increase above the level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety measures
required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly using power
tools in employment, an estimation of vibration exposure should
consider, the actual conditions of use and the way the tool is used,
including taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such
as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running
idle in addition to the trigger time.

Residual Risks

In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks
cannot be avoided. These are:
• Impairment of hearing.
• Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
• Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot
during operation.
• Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Chargers
D WALT chargers require no adjustment and are designed to be
e
as easy as possible to operate.
Electrical Safety
The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only.
Always check that the battery pack voltage corresponds to the
voltage on the rating plate. Also make sure that the voltage of
i
your charger corresponds to that of your mains.
Your D WALT charger is double insulated in
e
accordance with EN60335; therefore, no earth wire
is required.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced only by
D WALT or an authorised service organisation.

Important Safety Instructions for All
Battery Chargers
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important
safety and operating instructions for compatible battery
chargers (refer to Technical Data). Before using charger, read all
instructions and cautionary markings on charger, battery pack, and
product using battery pack.

WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get
inside charger. Electric shock may result.

WARNING: We recommend the use of a residual current
device with a residual current rating of 30 mA or less.

CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury,
charge only D WALT rechargeable batteries. Other types of
e
batteries may burst, causing personal injury and damage.

CAUTION: Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
NOTICE: Under certain conditions, with the charger
plugged into the power supply, the exposed charging
contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign
material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as,
but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil or any buildup
of metallic particles should be kept away from charger
cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply
when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger
before attempting to clean.
DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any
•
chargers other than the ones in this manual. The charger
and battery pack are specifically designed to work together.
These chargers are not intended for any uses other than
•
charging D WALT rechargeable batteries. Any other uses
e
may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
•
Pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger.
•
This will reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord.
• Make sure that cord is located so that it will not be
stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to
damage or stress.
; the maximum length is 30 m.
