Vibration
The vibration total value (tri-axial vector sum) deter-
mined according to EN60335-2-79:
Model HW1200
Vibration emission (a ) : 4.11 m/s
h
Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s
Model HW1300
Vibration emission (a ) : 4.86 m/s
h
Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s
NOTE: The declared vibration emission value has been
measured in accordance with the standard test method
and may be used for comparing one tool with another.
NOTE: The declared vibration emission value may
also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING:
The vibration emission during actual
use of the power tool can differ from the declared emission
value depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
WARNING:
Be sure to identify safety measures
to protect the operator that are based on an estima-
tion of exposure in the actual conditions of use (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).

EC Declaration of Conformity

The EC declaration of conformity is included as Annex A
to this instruction manual.

SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING:
Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions may result in electric shock, ire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instruc-
tions for future reference.
Work area safety
1. Keep operating area clear of all persons.
2. Do not overreach or stand on unstable supports.
Keep good footing and balance at all times.
3. Always place the high pressure washer body
on a level and stable surface. Avoid areas
where the ejected water will run or pool.
4. Before cleaning, check the surroundings and
objects to be cleaned. High pressure jets can
scrape away paint or other surface treatments
including toxic chemicals. Take the preventive
measures if necessary.
5. Be careful not to trip over by the cord or hose of the
high pressure washer. Always be aware of the con-
iguration of the cord and hose during operation.
6. During use, a small amount of water will come
out from the bottom of the high pressure washer.
Avoid locating the high pressure washer in the
areas where you don't want to wet.

Personal safety
1. To protect against the jet and objects by the
jet, operators should wear appropriate cloth-
ing such as safety boots, safety gloves, safety
helmets with visors, hearing protection, etc.
2. Do not use the high pressure washer within range
of persons unless they wear protective clothing.
3. To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is
necessary when the product is used near children.
Water that has lowed through backlow pre-
4.
venter is considered to be non-potable.
Electrical safety
1. Never use the high pressure washer outdoors in the rain.
2. Never touch the mains plug and/or socket with wet hands.
3. Do not use the machine if the supply cord or import-
ant parts of the machine are damaged, e.g. safety
devices, high pressure hoses, or the trigger gun.
4. Plug must match the outlet. Never modify the
plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plug
with grounded tools. Unmodiied plug and match-
ing outlet will reduce risk of the electric shock.
5. Inadequate extension cords can be dangerous. If an exten-
sion cord is used, it shall be suitable for outdoor use, and
the connection has to be kept dry and off the ground. It is
recommended that this is accomplished by means of a cord
reel which keeps the socket at least 60 mm above the ground.
6. Note the following when using extension cords:
•
Use only extension cords that are
intended for outdoor use.
•
Use only extension cords with an elec-
trical rating equal to or higher than the
rating of the product.
•
Do not use damaged extension cords.
•
Examine extension cords before use and
replace if damaged.
•
Do not abuse extension cords and do not
yank on cords to disconnect them.
•
Keep cords away from heat and sharp edges.
•
Always disconnect the extension cord
from the receptacle before disconnecting
the product from the extension cord.
7. The electric supply connection shall be made by a quali-
ied electrician and comply with IEC 60364-1. It is recom-
mended that the electric supply to this machine should
include either a residual current device that will interrupt
the supply if the leakage current to earth exceeds 30 mA
for 30 ms or a device that will prove the earth circuit.
Power tool use and care
1. Read all the instructions before using the product.
2. Know how to stop the high pressure washer
and bleed pressures quickly. Be thoroughly
familiar with the controls.
3. High pressure jets can be dangerous if mis-
used. The jet must not be directed at people,
live electrical equipment, or the machine itself.
4. This machine is not intended for use by persons (includ-
ing children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge.
5. Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
Do not spray lammable and/or toxic liquids.
6.
This may cause an explosion, intoxication, or
damage to the machine.
