NEPTUNE E
jet must not be directed at
persons, animals, live electri-
cal equipment or the cleaner
itself.
Wear appropriate protective
clothingand eye protection.
Do not direct the jet towards
yourself or towards other per-
sons in order to clean clothes or
footwear.
During operation of the cleaner,
recoil forces are produced at the
gunvalve and spray lance and,
when the spray lance is held at
an angle, a torque is also created.
The gunvalve and spray lance-
must therefore be held firmly in
both hands.
Do not use the cleaner when
other people without protective
clothing are in the working area.
Check that cleaning will not
result in dangerous substances
(e.g. asbestos, oil) being washed
off the object to be cleaned and
harming the environment.
Do not clean delicate parts
made of rubber, fabric, etc. with
the 0° jet. Keep some distance
between high pressure nozzle
and surface in order to prevent
the surface from damage.
Do not use the high-pressure
hose for lifting loads.
NOTE!
The maximum permissible work-
ing pressure and temperature
are printed on the high-pressure
hose.
Do not use the cleaner if the
power cord or high-pressure
hose is damaged.
Ensure adequate air circulation.
Do not cover the cleaner or oper-
ate it in inadequately ventilated
rooms!
Storethe cleaner where
it will not be exposed
tofrost!
Never operate the cleaner with-
out water. Even brief shortages of
water result in severe damage to
the pump seals.
Operation
Keepcabinet and service door
closedduring operation.
Connect the machine directly to
a plug socket. Do not use exten-
sion cords.
Do not damage the power cord
(e.g. by driving over it, pulling or
crushing it).
Disconnect the power cord by
grasping the plug only (do not
pull or tug the power cord).
Electricalequipment
CAUTION!
Never spray electrical equip-
ment with water:risk of elect-
tricalshock and short-circuit.
The cleaner may only be con-
nected to a correctly installed
plug socket.
Switching on the cleaner may
cause voltage fluctuations.
Voltage fluctuations should not
occur if the impedance at the
transfer point is less than 0.15:���
If in doubt ask your local electric-
ity supplier.
Maintenanceand repair
CAUTION!
Always remove the plug from
thepower supply before clean-
ing or carrying out mainte-
nancework on the cleaner.
Carry out only the maintenance
operations described in the op-
erating instructions. Use only
original Nilfisk-Alto spare parts.
Do not make any technical
modifications to the high-pres-
sure cleaner.
Ensure that the machine is
regularly serviced by authorized
Nilfisk-Alto dealers in accordance
with the maintenace plan. Failure
to do so will void the warranty.
CAUTION!
High-pressure hoses, fittings
and couplings are important for
the safety of the cleaner. Use
only high-pressure parts ap-
proved by the manufacturer!
The power cord must not differ
from the version specified by the
manufacturer and may only be
changed by an electrician.
Please contact your local au-
thorized Nilfisk-Alto equipment
distributor for all other mainte-
nance or repair needs!
Testing
The cleaner conforms to the Ger-
man „Guidelines for Liquid Spray
Jet Devices“. The high-pressure
cleaner must be subjected to a
safety examination in accord-
ance with the „Accident Preven-
tion Regulations for Working
with Liquid Spray Jet Devices“
as required, but at least every
12 months, by an authorised
inspector.
After all repairs or modifications
to electrical equipment, the pro-
tective conductor resistance, the
insulation resistance and the leak-
age current must be measured.
Furthermore, a visual inspection
of the mains power lead, a volt-
age and current measurement
and a function test must be car-
ried out. Our after-sales service
technicians are at your disposal
as authorised inspectors.

tion Regulations for Working
with Liquid Spray Jet Devices“
