• This appliance is not intended for use by persons
with limited physical, sensory or mental capacities
or lacking experience and/or skills, unless such
persons are accompanied and supervised by a
person in charge of their safety or they have re-
ceived precise instructions on the use of this appli-
ance and have understood the resulting risks.
• Children must not play with this appliance.
• Supervise children to prevent them from playing
with the appliance.
m CAUTION
• Create stability for the appliance prior to any work
on or with the appliance to prevent accidents or
damage.
• The water jet that is emitted from the high-pressure
nozzle results in a repulsion power acting on the
hand spray gun. Make sure that you have a firm
footing and are also holding the hand spray gun
and spray lance firmly.
• Never leave the appliance unattended as long as it
is in operation.
ATTENTION
• In case of extended breaks, switch off the appli-
ance at the appliance switch.
• Do not operate the appliance at temperatures be-
low 0 °C.
Other risks
m DANGER
• The appliance may not be operated in explosive
atmospheres.
• Never use the appliance to clean objects contain-
ing hazardous substances (e.g. Asbestos).
• Never draw in fluids containing solvents or undilut-
ed acids and solvents! This includes petrol, paint
thinner and heating oil. The spray mist is highly in-
flammable, explosive and poisonous. Do not use
acetone, undiluted acids and solvents, as they cor-
rode the materials used on the appliance.
• Keep packaging films away from children, there is a
risk of suffocation!
m WARNING
• According to applicable regulations, the appliance
must never be used on the drinking water net with-
out a system separator. Ensure that the connec-
tion of your building water installation on which the
high-pressure cleaner is operated is equipped with
a system separator pursuant to EN 12729 Type BA.
• Water that has flown through a system separator is
no longer classified as drinking water.
• High-pressure hoses, fixtures and couplings are
important for the safety of the appliance. Only use
high-pressure hoses, fixtures and couplings rec-
ommended by the manufacturer.
20 | GB
• When disconnecting the supply or high pressure
hose, hot water may leak from the connections af-
ter operation.
m CAUTION
• Mind the weight of the appliance when selecting
the storage location and during transport (see tech-
nical data) to prevent accidents or injuries.
• Several hours of continuous use of the appliance
can lead to numbness in the hands in rare cases.
• Wear gloves.
• Keep hands warm.
• Take breaks at regular intervals.
Working with detergent
m WARNING
• This appliance was designed to be used with deter-
gents which are supplied or recommended by the
manufacturer. The use of other detergents or chem-
icals may compromise the safety of the appliance.
• The improper use of detergents can cause severe
injuries or toxication.
• Store detergents away from the reach of children.
Safety Devices
m CAUTION
• Safety installations serve the protection of the user
and may not be modified or bypassed.
Personal protective equipment
m CAUTION
• Wear protective clothing and safety goggles to pro-
tect against splash back containing water or dirt.
• During the use of high-pressure cleaners aerosols
can develop. Inhaling aerosols can cause health
damage. Depending on the application, completely
shielded nozzles (e.g. surface cleaner) that signifi-
cantly reduce the emission of aqueous aerosols can
be used for high-pressure cleaning. The use of such
shielding is not possible with all applications. If the
use of a completely shielded nozzle is not possible, a
respirator of the category FFP 2 or the like should be
used, depending on the environment to be cleaned.
6. Residual risks

cordance with instructions, certain residual
risks cannot be rules out. The following hazards
may arise in connection with the equipment's
construction and layout:
• Lung damage if no suitable protective dust mask
is used.
• Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protection is
used.
• Health damage caused by hand-arm vibrations if
the equipment is used over a prolonged period or is
not properly guided and maintained.
