Danger
Never suck in water from a drinking water
container. Never suck in liquids which con-
tain solvents like lacquer thinner, petrol, oil
or unfiltered water. The sealings within the
device are not solvent resistant. The spray
mist of solvents is highly inflammable, ex-
plosive and poisonous.

ter 1") with filter (accessory) to the
switching valve for suction water.

The high pressure cleaner must not be
–
used by children. (Risk of accident on
account of improper use of the appli-
ance).
The high pressure spray generates high
–
levels of noise when the appliance is in
use. Risk of hearing impairment. Al-
ways use proper ear-protection aids
while working with the appliance.
The water jet coming out of the high
–
pressure nozzle causes the gun to re-
coil. Further, an angular spray pipe can
cause additional torque. Hence hold
the spray pipe and gun firmly.
Never direct the water jet on to persons,
–
animals, the appliance itself or electrical
components.
Vehicle tyres/ tyre valves may be
–
cleaned only with a minimum spray dis-
tance of 30 cm. Otherwise, the high
pressure spray can cause damage to
the vehicle tyre/ tyre valve. The discol-
ouring of the tyre is the fhe first sign of
damage. Damaged vehicle tyres are a
source of danger.
