General

Use of the high-pressure cleaner is subject to the applicable local regulations.

Besides the operating instruc-

tions and the binding accident prevention regulations valid in the country of use, observe recog- nized regulations for safety and proper use.

Do not use any unsafe work techniques.

Do not tie the trigger handle open.

Transport

Transport of the high-pressure cleaner is easy on its large wheels.

For safe transport in and on ve- hicles we recommend preventing the equipment from sliding and tilting. Secure it with tie-downs and apply the parking brake on the castor wheel.

For transport at temperatures around or below freezing 0°C (32°F), anti-freeze should be drawn into the pump beforehand (see chapter 6).

Before starting the cleaner

If your 3-phase cleaner was supplied without a plug, have it fi tted with a suitable 3-phase plug with ground, by a qualifi ed electrician.

Before use, check that the high- pressure cleaner is safe and in proper condition.

Regularly check whether the power cord is damaged or shows signs of ageing.

Use the high-pressure cleaner only when the power cord is in a safe condition. (risk of electric shock using damaged cord!).

Check the rated voltage of the high-pressure cleaner before connecting it to the mains power supply. Ensure that the voltage shown on the rating plate cor- responds to the voltage of the power supply.

We strongly recommend that the power supply to the high pres- sure cleaner be connected via a residual current circuit breaker. This device stops the supply of electricity if the leakage current to the ground exceeds 30 mA for 30 ms or it has an ground tester circuit.

Please observe the regulations and provisions applicable in your area. Before putting the high- pressure cleaner into service, carry out a visual check of all the major components.
