CAUTION
In case of longer breaks in opera-
tion and after use, switch off the device at the main
switch / device switch and pull the mains plug.
ATTENTION
Switch-on procedures will gener-

conditions may cause other devices to be impaired. In
case of a network impedance of less than 0.15 ohms,
no malfunctions are to be expected.
Water connection
WARNING
The device must not be started
up if the high-pressure hose is damaged. Replace a
damaged high-pressure hose at once. Only those hos-
es and connections recommended by the manufacturer
may be used. For order no. see operating instructions.
The screw connections of all connection hoses must
be leak-tight.
ATTENTION
Observe the regulations at your
water distribution company.
Operation
DANGER
When using the device in hazard
zones (e.g. service stations), adhere to the respective
safety regulations.
Operation in explosive atmos-
pheres is prohibited.
Never suction solvents, liquids
containing solvents or undiluted acids. This includes
e.g. petrol, paint thinner or heating oil. The spray mist is
highly flammable, explosive and poisonous.
aged wheels / tyre valves are extremely dangerous.
Damaged wheels / tyre valves can be damaged by the
high-pressure jet and explode. The first sign of this is
discolouration of the tyres. Keep a spray distance of at
least 30 cm when cleaning the wheels / tyre valves.
WARNING
Do not use the device if people
without the proper protective clothing are in its reach.
With short spray lances, your hand may come into
contact with the high-pressure jet. Never use a spotlight
nozzle or rotary nozzle with steel tubes that are shorter
than 75 cm.
A recoil force will arise due to the water
stream ejecting from the spray lance. An angular spray
lance produces a force that acts in upward direction.
Make sure you grip the gun and spray lance firmly.
When using angular spray units, recoil forces and
twisting forces may alter.
sure jet at yourself, e.g. to clean clothes or shoes.
not direct the high-pressure jet at persons, animals, live
electrical equipment or at the device itself.
spray any objects which contain harmful substances
(e.g. asbestos).
Check the device and the accesso-
ries, such as the high-pressure hose, high-pressure gun
and safety devices, to make sure they are in proper safe
and reliable condition before each operation. Do not use
the device if it is damaged. Replace damaged compo-
nents immediately.
Only use high-pressure hoses,
control panels and couplings specified by the manufac-
turer.
CAUTION
Never leave the device unsuper-
vised while it is in operation.

safe since they do not contain any acids, alkali or sub-

Device with a hand-arm vibration value > 2.5 m/s²
(see chapter Technical Data in the operating
CAUTION
Using the device for longer periods can cause poor
circulation in the hands due to vibrations. A general
period of use cannot be set, because this depends on
several influencing factors:
Personal tendency to suffer from poor circulation
(frequently cold fingers, tingling sensation in the fin-
gers)
Low ambient temperature. Wear warm gloves to
protect your hands.
Holding the device too tightly hindering blood circu-
lation.
Continuous operation is more harmful than opera-
tion interrupted by work breaks.
You should see a doctor if using the device regularly
and for lengthy periods of time, and in the event of re-
peated occurrences of symptoms such as tingling in
the fingers or cold fingers.
Devices with pneumatic tyres
CAUTION
Do
wheel rims: Make sure that all wheel rim bolts are tight-
ened securely before setting the tyre filling pressure.
Make sure that the pressure reducer is set correctly
on the compressor before setting the tyre filling pres-
sure.
Never exceed the maximum permissible tyre fill-
ing pressure. The tyre filling pressure needs to be read
on the tyre and if necessary on the wheel rim. If these
values differ, use the smaller value.
