WARNING :This machine has been designed for use
with the cleaning agent supplied or recommended by
the manufacturer. The use of other cleaning agents
or chemicals may adversely affect the safety of
@
the machine.
WARNING: During use of high pressure cleaners,
aerosols may be formed. Inhalation of aerosols can
@
be hazardous to health.
WARNING: High pressure jets can be dangerous
if subject to misuse. The jet must not be directed
at persons, live electrical equipment or the
@
machine itself.
WARNING: Do not use the machine within range of
@
persons unless they wear protective clothing.
WARNING: Do not direct the jet against yourself or
@
others in order to clean clothes or foot‑wear.
WARNING: Risk of explosion – Do not spray
@
flammable liquids.
WARNING: High pressure cleaners shall not be used
@
by children or untrained personnel.
WARNING: High pressure hoses, fittings and
couplings are important for the safety of the machine.
Use only hoses, fittings and couplings recommended
@
by the manufacturer.
WARNING: To ensure machine safety, use only
original spare parts from the manufacturer or
@
approved by the manufacturer.
WARNING: Water that has flowed through backflow
@
preventers is considered to be nonpotable.
WARNING: the machine shall be disconnected from
its power source during cleaning or maintenance and
when replacing parts.
(Original instructions)
@
WARNING: Do not use the machine if a supply cord
or important parts of the machine are damaged, e.g.
@
safety devices, high pressure hoses, trigger gun.
WARNING: Inadequate extension cords can be
dangerous. If an extension 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.
WARNING :Always switch off the mains
disconnecting switch when leaving the
@
machine unattended.
WARNING: Depending on the application, shielded
nozzles can be used for high pressure cleaning,
which will reduce the emission of hydrous aerosols
dramatically. However, not all applications allow
the use of such a device. If shielded nozzles are
not applicable for the protection against aerosols, a
respiratory mask of class FFP 2 or equivalent may be
needed, depending on the cleaning environment.
Safety of others
Š 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.
Š 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.
