Safety Devices
CAUTION
 Safety installations serve the protection
of the user and may not be modified or
bypassed.
Appliance switch
The appliance switch prevents unintention-
al operation of the appliance.
Lock trigger gun
This lock locks the lever of the trigger gun
and prevents the inadvertent start of the ap-
pliance.
Overflow valve with pressure switch
The overflow valve prevents the permissi-
ble working pressure from being exceeded.
If the lever on the trigger gun is released
the pressure switch turns off the pump, the
high pressure jet is stopped. If the lever is
pulled the pump is turned on again.
Personal protective equipment
CAUTION
 Wear protective clothing and safety
goggles to protect against splash back
containing water or dirt.
 During the use of high-pressure clean-
ers aerosols can develop. Inhaling aer-
osols can cause health damage.
Depending on the application, com-
pletely shielded nozzles (e.g. surface
cleaner) that significantly reduce the
emission of aqueous aerosols can be
used for high-pressure cleaning.
The use of such shielding is not possi-
ble with all applications.
If the use of a completely shielded noz-
zle is not possible, a respirator of the
category FFP 2 or the like should be
used, depending on the environment to
be cleaned.
