Keep the high-pressure
cleaner as far away as
possible from the object being
cleaned.
The machine may only be
operated in an upright position
and on level surfaces. Do not
cover the machine and ensure
adequate motor ventilation.
Do not direct the high-
pressure jet against animals.
Do not direct the high-
pressure jet onto places you
cannot see.
Children, animals and
bystanders must remain at a
distance.
Hazardous substances (e. g.
asbestos or oil) must not be
allowed to escape into the
environment unchecked when
working with the machine. The
applicable environmental
regulations must be observed
without fail.
Surfaces of asbestos cement
must never be cleaned with a
high-pressure jet. Hazardous,
breathable asbestos fibers
may be released in addition to
the dirt. The danger is
greatest when the washed
surface has dried.
RE 271, RE 271 PLUS, RE 281, RE 281 PLUS
Delicate parts made of rubber,
fabric or similar materials
must not be cleaned with a
pencil jet, e. g. from the rotary
nozzle. Maintain a sufficient
distance between the high-
pressure hose and the surface
when cleaning to avoid any
damage to the surface being
cleaned.
The trigger on the spray gun
must move easily and
automatically return to its
starting position when
released.
Hold the spray attachment
firmly with both hands in order
safely to withstand the
kickback force and additional
torque produced when using
spray attachments with
angled spray lance.
Do not buckle or loop the high-
pressure hose.
Ensure that the power cord
and the high-pressure hose
are not damaged by being
driven over, squashed or
pulled; protect them against
heat and oil.
Do not touch the power cord
with the high-pressure jet.
If the machine is subjected to
unusually high loads for which
it was not designed (e. g.,
heavy impact or a fall), always
check that it is in good
condition before continuing
work - refer also to the chapter
"Before starting work". Also
make certain that the safety
mechanisms are working
properly. Never continue
using a machine that is not in
perfect working order. In case
of doubt, have the unit
checked by your servicing
dealer.
Before leaving the machine
unattended: Switch off the
machine – unplug the power
cord.
Safety equipment
When the safety equipment is
activated, excessive pressure
is returned to the intake side
of the pump via a safety valve.
This safety feature has been
set by the manufacturer and
must not be adjusted.
