• With short spraying lances there is a danger of injury as a hand may ac-
cidentally come into contact with the high-pressure jet. If the spraying
lance used is shorter than 75 cm, do not use a spot spraying nozzle or
rotor nozzle.
ATTENTION
• Vehicle tyres/tyre valves may only be cleaned with a minimum spraying
distance of 30 cm. Otherwise the vehicle tyre/tyre valve may be dam-
aged by the high-pressure jet. The first sign of damage is the discolour-
ation of the tyre. Damaged vehicle tyres are a source of danger.
mCAUTION
• If the operating manual of the unit (technical data) specifies a sound
pressure above 80 dB(A), wear hearing protection.
• Wear suitable protective clothing and safety goggles to protect against
splashing water or dirt.
• The recommended cleaning agents must not be used undiluted. The
products are safe to operate as they do not contain any environmentally
harmful substances.
In case of contact of cleaning agent with eyes, immediately rinse thor-
oughly with plenty of water and consult a doctor immediately if swal-
lowed.
• Allow the hoses to cool down after hot water operation or operate the
device briefly in cold water mode.
6.4.1 For units with a hand-arm vibration value >2.5 m/s² (see tech-
nical data)
mDANGER
• Prolonged use of the device may lead to vibration-induced circulatory
problems in the hands. A generally valid duration for use cannot be de-
termined because it depends on several influencing factors:
-Personal predisposition to poor circulation (often cold fingers, finger
tingling).
-Low ambient temperature. Wear warm gloves to protect your hands.
-Tight grasping worsens the blood circulation.
-Uninterrupted operation is worse than operation interrupted by
breaks.
• In case of regular, long-term use of the device and repeated occurrence
of corresponding signs (for example, finger tingling, cold fingers), we
recommend a medical examination.
6.5 Operation
mWARNING
• For petrol or oil-powered machines, it is important to provide adequate
ventilation and ensure that exhaust gases are properly discharged.
mDANGER
• The operator must use the device as intended. It must take the local con-
ditions into account and pay attention to third parties, especially chil-
dren, when working with the device.
• The device must never be left unattended while it is in operation.
• The device may only be used by persons who have been instructed in its
handling or who have demonstrated their ability to operate it and have
been expressly instructed to use it. The device must not be operated by
children or untrained persons.
• Always wear suitable gloves when working on the device.
• The water jet coming out of the spraying lance creates a recoil force. Due
to the angled spraying lance, a force acts upwards. Hold the gun and
spraying lance firmly.
• When using angled spraying equipment, the recoil forces and twisting
forces may change.
mWARNING
• Aerosols can develop when using high pressure cleaners. Inhaling aer-
osols can cause damage to your health. Respiratory protection masks
of class FFP2 or higher are suitable for protection against aqueous aer-
osols.

6.11 Safety devices
Safety devices serve to protect the user and must not be overridden or
converted.
6.11.1 Overpressure valve
• When the hand spray gun is closed, the pressure relief valve opens and
the high-pressure pump returns the water to the pump suction side.
This prevents the permitted working pressure from being exceeded.
• The pressure relief valve is set and sealed at the factory. Adjustments
can only be made by the customer service.
6.11.2 Thermal valve
• The thermal valve protects the high-pressure pump against non-per-
mitted heating in circuit operation when the hand spray gun is closed.
• The thermal valve opens when the water temperature exceeds 55 - 60°C
and discharges the hot water to the outside.
6.12 Residual risks
mCAUTION
Despite intended use, non-obvious residual risks cannot be completely
excluded.
• Injuries due to slipping on sewage
• Injuries or material damage caused by the high-pressure water jet
