Water Connection - Parkside PHDB 4 C3 Instrucciones De Utilización Y De Seguridad

m WARNING
To ensure machine safety, only use original spare parts from
the manufacturer or spare parts approved by the manufacturer.
m WARNING
Water that has flowed through the non-return valve is not
drinkable.
m WARNING
Do not use the machine if a connection cable or important
parts of the machine are damaged, e.g. safety devices, high-
pressure hoses, spray gun.
m WARNING
Machines driven by a combustion engine may not be used
in interior rooms unless an adequate ventilation system that
is approved by the responsible national occupational health
and safety authorities has been installed.
m WARNING
Make sure that there are no exhaust emissions near air intakes.

6.3 Water connection

m DANGER
• The high-pressure hose may not used if damaged. A dam-
aged high-pressure hose must be replaced immediately.
Only hoses and connectors recommended and approved
by the manufacturer may be used. Order No. see operat-
ing manual.
• The screw connections of all connection hoses must be
leak-tight.
ATTENTION
• Observe the regulations of your water supply company.
6.4 Operation
m DANGER
• Inspect the appliance and the working equipment before
use for operational safety and for proper condition. Do
not use the appliance if a connecting pipe or important
parts of the appliance are damage, e. g. safety devices,
high-pressure hoses, hand spray guns.
• Never prime with liquids containing solvents or undiluted
acids and solvents! These include petrol, paint thinners or
heating oil. The spray mist is highly flammable, explosive
and poisonous. Do not use acetone, undiluted acids or
solvents as they can damage the materials used in the ap-
pliance.
• When using the appliance in hazardous areas (e. g. petrol
filling stations) comply with the relevant safety regulations.
Operation in explosive atmospheres is prohibited.
• All live components in the working area must be protected
from spray water.
• The trigger of the hand spray gun must not be jammed
during use.
ATTENTION
• Do not use acetone, undiluted acids or solvents as they
can damage the materials used in the appliance.
• The appliance must be set up on a firm, flat surface.
• Do not operate the device at temperatures below 5° C.
m WARNING
• When using cleaning agents, comply with the safety data
sheet of the cleaning agent manufacturer, especially the
information on personal safety equipment.
• Only cleaning agents that have been approved by the ap-
pliance manufacturer may be used. This appliance was
designed to be used with the cleaning products that were
supplied or delivered by the manufacturer. The use of
other cleaning agents or chemicals can impair the safety
of the appliance.
• Keep cleaning agents out of reach of children!
• Do not open the cover while the engine is running.
• During longer working breaks, switch off the appliance at
the main switch/appliance switch.
m WARNING
• Materials containing asbestos or other substances that are
harmful to health may not be sprayed.
• Before cleaning, carry out a risk assessment of the surface
to be cleaned to ascertain the safety and health safety
requirements. Take all necessary protective measures.
• With short jet pipes there is a risk of injury as a hand could
accidentally come into contact with the high-pressure jet. If
the jet pipe being used is shorter than 75 cm, a needle jet
nozzle or rotor nozzle may not be used.
ATTENTION
• Vehicle tyres/tyre valves may only be cleaned at a mini-
mum spray distance of 30 cm. Otherwise the vehicle
tyres/tyre valves could be damaged by the high-pressure
jet. The first sign of damage is a discolouration of the tyre.
Damaged vehicle tyres are a source of danger.
m CAUTION
• If a sound pressure level over 80 dB(A) is specified in the
appliance operating instructions (technical specifications),
wear hearing protection.
• Wear suitable protective clothing and safety glasses to
protect yourself from water splashes and dirt.
• The recommended cleaning agent may not be used undi-
luted. The products are operationally safe as they contain
no environmentally harmful substances. If the cleaning
agent gets into your eyes, rinse immediately with plenty
of water and consult a doctor at the earliest opportunity if
you swallow any.
• After hot water operation, allow the hoses to cool down or
operate the appliance for a short while using cold water.
6.4.1 For appliances with a hand-arm vibration
value > 2.5 m/s (see Technical data)
2
m DANGER
• Using the appliance for a long time can lead to vibration-
related circulation disorders of the hands. It is not possible
to determine a generally applicable time limit for use as
this is affected by a number of variables:
- Personal predisposition to poor circulation (frequently
cold fingers, tingling in the fingers).
- Low ambient temperature. Wearing warm gloves pro-
tects the hands.
- A very tight grip impairs the circulation.
- Uninterrupted operation is not ideal: take regular breaks.
• In the event of regular, prolonged use of the appliance
coupled with the repeated occurrence of certain symp-
toms (e.g. tingling in the fingers, cold fingers), we recom-
mend consulting a doctor.
