only hoses, fittings and couplings
recommended by the manufacturer.
 WARNING: Inadequate extension
cables can be dangerous. Cables on
reels should always be completely
unwinded to prevent the cable from
overheating.
 If an extension cable is used, the
plug and the socket must be
waterproof and comply with the
below-mentioned requirements for
length and cable dimensions.

1.0 mm² max. 12.5 m

1.5 mm² max. 20 m
 If the electric cable is damaged, it
must be replaced by a service agent
or similarly qualified person in order
to avoid a hazard.

MAINS POWER CONNECTION

The following should be observed when
connecting the high pressure washer to
the electric installation:
 The electric supply connection shall
be made by a qualified electrician
and comply with IEC 60364-1
 It is recommended that the electric
supply to this appliance should
include either a residual current
device that will interrupt the supply
if the leakage current to earth
exceeds 30 mA for 30 ms.

WATER CONNECTION

 Connection to the public mains
according to regulations.
 Inlet hose can be connected to the
water mains with a max. inlet
pressure of 10 bars.
5
For European use, only
allowable to be connected
with the drinking water
mains, when an appropriate mains
backflow preventer has been installed,
Type BA according to EN 1717. The
length of the hose between the
backflow preventer and the high
pressure washer must be at least 10
metres to absorb possible pressure
peaks (min diameter ½ inch).
Operation by suction (for example from
a rainwater vessel) is carried out
without backflow preventer.
As soon as water has flown through the
BA valve, this water is not considered
to be drinking water any more.

IMPORTANT!

Only use water without any impurities.
If there is a risk of sand particles in the
inlet water (i.e. from your own well),
an additional filter should be mounted.

SAFETY DEVICES

 The unloader valve can reduce
pressure if it exceeds pre-set values.
Locking device on trigger gun (8) (see
illustration at the beginning of this
manual): The trigger gun (8) features
a locking device (9). When the knob
is activated, the trigger gun (11)
cannot be operated.
THERMAL SENSOR
A thermal sensor protects the motor
against overloading. The machine will
restart after a few minutes when the
thermal sensor has cooled.
