Safety Information

Important!!!
The machine must be disconnected from the power supply when
servicing work is being carried out. The master switch should be in
position "0" and the plug out of the socket.
The machine may only be used by persons who have received the necessary training.
* Never operate the machine without supervision.
* The water spray can be dangerous. It should never be directed at people, animals,
electrical apparatus or the machine itself.
* Never direct the spray at power sockets.
* Parts of the machine interior and parts of the gun and lance become hot when hot water
is used. Leave the cover of the machine closed when using the machine and do not
touch the metallic parts of the gun and lance.
* Children must not be allowed to use high pressure cleaning equipment.
* Do not damage the cable or repair it incorrectly.
* Do not pull the high pressure hose if there are kinks or loops in it. Make sure that the hose
is not damaged on sharp edges.
* Persons operating the machine should wear the necessary protective clothing, ie, water-
proof clothing, rubber boots, safety goggles, headwear etc.
* The high pressure spray can generate a high level of noise. If noise exceeds the maximum
allowed levels, users and others in the vicinity must wear suitable ear protection.
* The high pressure spray causes recoil and additional twisting movement if the gun is
angled. The gun must therefore be held firmly with both hands.
* Do not close off the exhaust aperture on the topside of the machine. Do not bend over this
aperture and do not put your hands inside it. Exhaust gases are very hot!
* Do not clamp down the trigger of the gun. Apply the safety catch after use, in order to
prevent accidental spraying.
* Do not spray against matter containing asbestos or other hazardous substances.
* Never spray liquids containing solvents, such as paint thinner, petrol, oil, or anythng
similar. Note the specifications of the additive makers! The seals in the machine are not
resistant to solvents. The spray vapour of solvents is highly inflammable, explosive and
poisonous.
* The machine may not be set up and used in rooms where there is a danger of fire or
explosion. The machine may not be used underwater.
* Air is required for combustion, and exhaust fumes are generated. If the machine is used
in closed rooms, make sure that the exhaust fumes can escape and that there is adequate
ventilation.
