● Apply the power tool horizontally and dry for operation. Penetration of water
into the electrical device increases the risk of electric shock.
● Do not aim liquid jet at the power tool, not even for cleaning. Penetration of
water into the electrical device increases the risk of electric shock.
● Do not suck up inflammable or explosive liquids, for example petrol, oil,
alcohol, solvent, with the power tool. The fumes or liquids can ignite or explode.
● Do not operate the power tool in rooms where there is a risk of explosion.
The fumes or liquids can ignite or explode.
● Protect the power tool against frost. The device could be damaged. Let the
power tool run empty for about 1 minute, if necessary, to drain off remaining
water.
● Never let the power tool operate unattended. Switch the power tool off at
the On/Off switch (4) and pull out the mains plug for longer work breaks.
Electrical devices can cause hazards which lead to material damage or injury
when left unattended.
● Do not operate the power tool on a closed pipe system for a prolonged
period of time. The power tool could be damaged by overheating.
● Children and persons who, due to their physical, sensory or mental abilities
or lack of experience and knowledge are unable to operate the power tool
safely may not use this power tool without supervision or instruction by a
responsible person. Otherwise there is a risk of operating errors and injuries.
● Only allow trained persons to use the power tool. Apprentices may only use
the power tool when they are over 16, when this is necessary for their training
and when they are supervised by a trained operative.
● Check the power cable of the electric al device and extension leads regularly
for damage. Have these renewed by qualified experts or an authorised REMS
customer service workshop in case of damage.
● Only use approved and appropriate marked extension leads with a sufficient
cable cross-section. Use extension leads up to a length of 10 m with cable
cross­section 1.5 mm², from 10 – 30 m with cable cross­section 2.5 mm².

Attention: Use for the intended purpose also includes consideration and
observance of the national safety provisions, rules and regulations valid for
the application site, especially the following standards and rules of technology:
European standard EN 806-4:2010
Based on the currently valid European directive 98/83/EC "on the quality of water
for human consumption", the European standard EN 806-4:2010 "Specifications for
installations inside buildings conveying water for human consumption – Part 4:
Installation" was adopted by the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) on
the 23rd of February 2010 and had to receive the status of a national standard in
all European countries by September 2010. This standard defines Europe-wide
regulations for the commissioning of drinking water installations, e.g. for filling,
pressure testing, flushing and disinfection for the first time.
Section 6 "Commissioning" of EN 806-4:2010 describes the "filling and hydrostatic
pressure testing of installations inside buildings for water for human consumption"
under 6.1. "Installations inside buildings must be subjected to pressure testing. This
can be done either with water or, if national regulations allow, oil-free, clean air with
low pressure or inert gases may be used. The possible risk from high gas or air
pressure in the system must be considered." However, the standard EN 806-4:2010
contains no test criteria at all for testing with air apart from this note.
Sub-sections to 6.1 offer 3 test methods A, B, C for hydrostatic pressure testing
depending on the material and size of the installed pipes The test methods A, B and
C differ in different test sequences, pressures and times.
Section 6.2 "Flushing the pipes" defines under 6.2.1: "The drinking water installation
must be flushed with drinking water after installation and pressure testing as well
as immediately before commissioning." "If a system is not put into operation imme-
diately after commissioning, it must be flushed at regular intervals (up to 7 days)."
Pressure testing with compressed air is recommended if this demand cannot be
fulfilled.
Section 6.2.2. describes "flushing with water".
In section 6.2.3 "Flushing method with a water/air mixture" is described whereby the
flushing effect is reinforced by manually or automatically generated compressed air
surges.
Section 6.3 "Disinfection" points out in 6.3.1 that no disinfection is necessary in many
cases but that flushing is sufficient. "However, drinking water installations may be
disinfected after flushing is a responsible person or authority prescribes this." "All
disinfections must be carried out in accordance with national or local regulations."
Section 6.3.2 "Selection of the disinfectant" states that: "All chemicals that are used
for the disinfection of drinking water installations must meet the requirements for
chemicals for water treatment which are specified in European standards or, if
European standards are not applicable, in national standards." Moreover: "Transport,
storage, handling and use of all these disinfectants can be dangerous, therefore
health and safety requirements must be strictly observed."
Section 6.3.3 "Procedure for the use of disinfectants" states that the specifications
of the disinfectant manufacturer must be observed and that a sample must be tested
bacteriologically after successful disinfection and subsequent flushing. Finally it is
demanded that: "A full record of the details of the entire procedure and the test
results must be compiled and submitted to the owner of the building."
