Before start-up please read these instructions!

Before using the machine please read the operating in-structions for your unit and comply in particular withthese safety instructions.The warning and information signs attached to the unitprovide important information for safe operation.

Apart from the information in the operating instructions complywith the general safety regulations and regulations for the pre-vention of accidents.Power Supply

Never direct the water jet at people, animals, the unitor electric components.

Power Supply

�

The voltage indicated on the rating plate must correspond to thevoltage of the power source.

�

We recommend that this equipment is only connected into asocket which is protected by a circuit-breaker that would be actu-ated by a 30 mA residual current.

�

Only use or replace power supply cables for this unit which corre-spond to the types indicated by the manufacturer. See the operat-ing instructions for the order no. and types.

�

If the plug is damaged, pay attention to the following:

�

Plugs and sockets conforming to BS 4243 or BS 196 should beused wherever practicable. Domestic pattern plugs to BS 1363are not recommended but if their use is essential those which havebarriers or moulded channels inside should be selected so that ifthe earth continuity conductor is pulled out of its terminal it is un-likely to be able to touch the phase terminal of the fuse carrier. Do-mestic pattern plugs to BS 546 should not be used. The wiring ofthe plug should leave more slack in the earth continuity conductorthan in the other cores, so that it is not the first core to be pulledout of its terminal should the cord grip fail. Plugs which have goodgrips capable of maintaining a firm hold on the cable sheathshould be selected. In general, additional means should be pro-vided to relieve stress on cable terminations in the plug. For exam-ple, additional cable clamps should be fitted or a substantial chaincould be used to tether the machine to a fixed point.

�

Plugs and sockets situated near the work site or outdoors shouldbe to class IP 55 of BS 5490 to provide adequate protectionagainst ingress of water, etc. and cable entries require effectivesealing. Rubber shrouds should be provided over cable glands.Drip-proof (class IP X2 of BS 5490) plugs and sockets to BS 4343are suitable for use indoors where the plug is away from the waterspray area where the appliance is in use.

�

Never touch the mains plug with wet hands.

�

Do not run over, crush or pull the power supply cable or extensionlead, otherwise it may be damaged. Protect the cable from heat,oil and sharp edges.

�

The extension lead must have a cross section in accordance withthe operating instructions and be protected against splashed wa-ter. The connection must not be in water.

�

When replacing couplings on the power supply cable or extensionlead the spray water guard and mechanical stability must remainintact.

Water connection

�

Comply with the regulations of your water supply company.

�

All connecting hoses must have properly sealed joints.

�

The high-pressure hose must not be damaged (danger of burst-ing). A damaged high-pressure hose must be replaced immedi-ately. Only use hoses and connections recommended by the man-ufacturer.

Application

�

Before use, check that the unit and operating equipment are inperfect condition and are safe to operate. Do not use the unit if itis not in perfect condition.

�

Never draw in solvent-containing liquids, undiluted acids or sol-vents! This includes petrol, paint thinners heating oil. The sprayedvapour is highly flammable, explosive and toxic; also acetone, un-diluted acids and solvents as these corrode the materials used onthe unit.

�

The appropriate safety regulations must be observed when usingthe unit in dangerous area (e.g. petrol stations). It is forbidden tooperate the unit in potentially explosive locations.

�

The unit must be placed in on solid base.

�

Only use detergents recommended by the manufacturer and com-ply with the application, disposal and warning instructions of thedetergent manufacturers.

�

All current-conducting components in the working area must beprotected against splashed water.

�

The gun trigger must not be jammed in position during operation.

�

Suitable protective clothing must be worn if necessary to protectagainst splashing from some parts.

�

Vehicle tyres/tyre valves may only be cleaned from a minimumdistance of 30 cm, otherwise the vehicle tyre/tyre valve could bedamaged by the high-pressure jet. The first indication of this is adiscoloration of the tyre. Damaged vehicle tyres/tyre valves can bedeadly dangerous.

�

Materials containing asbestos and other materials which containsubstances which are hazardous to your health must not besprayed.

�

Only use detergents which have been approved by the manufac-turer of the unit.

�

Detergents must not be used undiluted. The products are safe touse as they contain no acids, alkalis or substances which are det-rimental to the environment. We recommend that the detergentsare kept out of the reach of children. If detergent comes into con-tact with the eyes wash immediately with plenty of water and ifswallowed contact a doctor immediately.

Operation

�

The operator must use the unit in accordance with the regulations.He/she must take local conditions into account and be aware ofother people, especially children, when operating the unit.

�

The unit may only be used by authorised persons who have re-ceived training or have demonstrated their ability to operate theunit. The unit must not be operated by children or juveniles (dan-ger of accidents due to incorrect use of the unit).

�

The unit must never be left unsupervised while the motor is run-ning.

�

The water jet from the high-pressure nozzle produces a recoil onthe gun. You should therefore hold the gun and spray lance firmly.

Transport

�

Switch off the motor and secure the unit before transporting.

Maintenance

�

Switch off the unit prior to all cleaning and maintenance work andbefore replacing components. Pull out the mains plug if the unit ismains-operated.

�

Repairs may only be carried out by authorised Bosch ServiceCentres.

Accessories and spare parts

�

Only use accessories and spare parts which have been approvedby Bosch. Original accessories and spare parts guarantee that theunit can be operated safely and without any breakdowns.

Inadequate water supply

Water strainer blocked

Water supply hoses squeezed

High pressure hose too long

Allow pressure washer to run with open spray handle and nozzle at low pressure until regular working pres-sure is obtained.

Straighten out kinked water supply hoses

Dismount high pressure extension hose. Retry (extension hose max. 7 m)

Pressure too low, but steady

Note: Several types of accessory will normally deliver a lower pressure

Nozzle worn

Start/stop valve worn

Change the nozzle

Activate trigger five time in quick suc-cession

Motor starts up but no working pressure

No water supply

Water strainer clogged up

Nozzle clogged up

Connect water supply

Clean the water strainer

Clean nozzle

The pressure washer starts irregularly by itself

Pump/power gun leaky Contact your Bosch Service Centre

Water leaks from machine

Leaking pump 6 drops per minute are permissible. In case of more serious leakage, you should contact your Bosch Service Centre.


F016L70 350 • 05.10

Chemicals dangerous to the environment must notbe allowed to enter the ground, ground water orponds, streams, etc.

For the use of cleaning agents, observe the instruc-tions on the package and the prescribed concentra-tion exactly.

For the cleaning of motor vehicles the local regula-tions should be observed: Do not allow oil sprayedoff to enter into the ground water. Recycle raw ma-terials instead of waste disposal.

Power tools, accessories and packaging should besorted for environmental-friendly recycling.

Only for EC countries:

Do not dispose of power tools intohousehold waste!According to the European Directive2002/96/EC on waste electrical andelectronic equipment and its incorpo-ration into national law, power tools

that are no longer suitable for use must be sepa-rately collected and sent for recovery in an environmentally-friendly manner.
