4 Safety Precautions

appliances or at the pressure washer.

away from the surface to be cleaned.
￭ An incorrectly routed high-pressure hose may suffer
damage. As a result of the damage, water under high
pressure may escape uncontrolled into the surrounding
area. This can result in serious injuries and damage to
property.
► Do not direct the water jet at the high-pressure hose.
► Route the high-pressure hose so that it is not under
tension or tangled.
► Route the high-pressure hose so that it will not be
damaged, kinked or crushed, or chafed.
► Protect the high-pressure hose from heat, oil and
chemicals.
￭ An incorrectly routed water hose may suffer damage and
people may trip over it. People may be injured and the
water hose may be damaged.
► Do not direct the water jet at the water hose.
► Route and mark the water hose so that people will not
trip over it.

tangled.
► Route the water hose so that it will not be damaged,
kinked or crushed, or chafed.
► Protect the water hose from heat, oil and chemicals.
￭ The strong water jet produces reactive forces. The
reactive forces occurring may cause the user to lose
control of the spray attachment. The user may be
seriously injured and property may be damaged.

Connecting the water supply

WARNING
￭ Releasing the spray gun trigger causes a kickback in the
water hose. A kickback can force dirty water back into the
drinking water main. This can pollute the drinking water.
► Do not connect the pressure washer directly
to the drinking water main.
► A backflow preventer complying with the applicable
regulations should be fitted in-line when connecting a
pressure washer to the drinking water main. If drinking
water has passed through the backflow preventer, it can
no longer be regarded as drinking water.
