Safety devices

CAUTION
Missing or modified safety devices
Safety devices are provided for your own protection.
Never modify or bypass safety devices.
Safety lever
The safety lever on the high-pressure gun prevents the
device from being switched on inadvertently.
Overflow valve
If the high-pressure gun is closed, the overflow valve
opens and the entire water volume will flow back to the
pump suction side.
The overflow valve is set by the manufacturer and
sealed. Setting shall only be carried out by Customer
Service.

Symbols on the device

Do not aim the high-pressure jet at persons,
animals, live electrical equipment or the de-
vice itself.
Protect the device against frost.
According to applicable regulations, the de-
vice must never be used with the drinking
water network without a system separator.
Ensure that the connection to your house
water system, with which the high-pressure
cleaner is operated, is equipped with a sys-
tem separator according to EN 12729 type
BA. Water that has flowed through a system
separator is classified as undrinkable. Al-
ways connect the system separator to the
water inlet and never directly to the device.

WARNING
93 The high nozzle outlet speed of the high-
pressure water jet results in a high noise lev-
el that can cause discomfort or hearing dam-
age (e.g. tinnitus) to persons in the
immediate vicinity. A continuously high
noise level can result in deafness.
● Wear the prescribed personal protective
equipment.
● High noise levels can impair vocal com-
munication and impair or prevent your
ability to perceive acoustic warning sig-
nals. Never work alone. A second per-
son must be present outside the work
area.
