Before starting work
Do not connect the high-
pressure cleaner directly
to the drinking water
main.
Only connect the high-pressure cleaner
to the drinking water main in conjunction
with a backflow preventer – see "Special
accessories".
Warning!
If drinking water has passed
–
through the backflow preventer, it
can no longer be regarded as
drinking water.
Do not use the machine with dirty water.
If there is a risk that dirty water will occur
(e. g., flowing sand), an appropriate
water filter must be used.
Inspecting the high-pressure cleaner
Warning!
The high-pressure cleaner should
–
only be used if it is in full working
order – risk of accident!
It must be possible to move the
–
switch to the 0 position easily
The switch must be in the 0 position
–
Inspect the high-pressure hose,
–
spray attachment and safety
mechanisms for damage
High-pressure hose and spray
–
attachment in good condition
(clean, moving easily) and correctly
assembled
RE 361, RE 361 PLUS, RE 461, RE 461 PLUS, RE 471 PLUS
For good control of the machine, the
–
handles should be clean and dry
with no oil or dirt on them
Check the oil level
–
Never attempt to modify the controls
–
or safety devices
Electrical connection
Warning!
Minimize the risk of electrical shock:
Voltage and frequency of the
–
machine (see rating plate) must
match the voltage and frequency of
the mains supply
Examine the power cord, power
–
plug and extension cord for
damage. Damaged cords,
couplings and plugs or power cords
that do not comply with the
regulations must not be used
Only connect the machine to a
–
correctly installed power socket
The insulation on the power cord
–
and any extension cord, the plug
and the coupling must be fully intact
Never touch the power plug, power
–
cord and extension cord and
electrical plug connections with wet
hands
Warning!
Route the power cord and extension
cord properly:
Observe the minimum cross-section
–
of the individual cords – see
"Connecting the machine to the
power supply"
Route and mark the power cord so
–
that it cannot become damaged and
no one is endangered – danger of
stumbling!
Use of unsuitable extension cords
–
can be dangerous. Use only
extension cords that are approved
for outdoor use and are
correspondingly marked and have a
sufficient cross-section
The connector and coupling of the
–
extension cord must be waterproof
and not lie in water
It is advisable to keep the plug
–
connection at least 60 mm above
the ground/floor. for example, by
using a cable reel
don't let the cord rub against edges
–
or pointed or sharp objects
don't squeeze the cord under doors
–
or windows
if cords become snarled – unplug
–
the power plug and unsnarl the cord
always unroll the power cord from
–
the cable reel completely to avoid
risk of fire due to overheating
