–
The high pressure cleaner must not be
–
used by children. (Risk of accident on
account of improper use of the appli-
ance).

–
levels of noise when the appliance is in
use. Risk of hearing impairment. Al-
ways use proper ear-protection aids
while working with the appliance.
The water jet coming out of the high

pressure nozzle causes the gun to re-
coil. Further, an angular spray pipe can
cause additional torque. Hence hold the
spray pipe and gun firmly.
Never direct the water jet on to persons,
–
animals, the appliance itself or electrical
components.
Vehicle tyres/ tyre valves may be
–
cleaned only with a minimum spray dis-
tance of 30 cm.
Otherwise, the high pressure spray can
cause damage to the vehicle tyre/ tyre
valve. The discolouring of the tyre is the
fhe first sign of damage. Damaged ve-
hicle tyres are a source of danger.
