Translation of the original instruction manual
When the trolley with the sprinkler reaches the end position, the operating lever folds up and the water flow stops automatically.
WARNING!
The drive of the sprinkler trolley is very powerful. During operation, never touch the gearbox, the rotating hose reel or the hose
retraction. There is a risk of crushing.
CAUTION!
• Ensure that the switch-off mechanism is not blocked by foreign objects to ensure that the sprinkler trolley is switched off
safely.
• If the sprinkler trolley is not used for a prolonged period, the standing water in the hose heats up in direct sunlight.
There is a risk of scalding.
Once you have finished using the sprinkler trolley, close the tap and depressurise the hose by briefly opening the valve.
To prevent accidents or injuries during transportation and storage, note the weight of the device (see technical data). We recommend
that you enlist a second person to help lift the sprinkler trolley.
CAUTION!
Note the weight of the device during transportation. When the hose is filled with water, the sprinkler trolley is very heavy
CAUTION!
When choosing the storage location, note the weight of the device.
Shut off the water supply and detach the supply hose from the sprinkler trolley. The hose should be completely drained before
being stored for a prolonged period. To do so, open the connected device at the end of the hose. Only wind up hoses again once
they have been completely drained.
Before prolonged storage, for example in winter, additionally note the instructions below (frost protection).
CAUTION!
• Protect the sprinkler trolley against frost.
• In frosty conditions, drain and store the sprinkler trolley as described in the previous section.
• Frozen water expands. The pressure built up may damage the sprinkler trolley and cause
liquid to be discharged unintentionally.
• To prevent damage, the sprinkler trolley must be stored in a frost-proof area.
Lubricate the moving parts of the sprinkler trolley with suitable agents at regular intervals or if the sprinkler trolley has not been
used for a prolonged period.
