Connection to the drinking water main
When hooking up to the drinking water
main, a backflow preventer (in
accordance with IEC/EN 60335 - 2 - 79)
must be installed between the water tap

and the hose.
If drinking water has passed through the
backflow preventer, it can no longer be
regarded as drinking water.
Follow the rules laid down by the local
water supply company to prevent water
flowing back from the high-pressure
cleaner into the drinking water main.
