thinner, or heating oil. The spray is highly inflammable,

explosive, and toxic. Do not use acetone, undiluted acids,

and solvents as they affect the materials used on the ap-

the pressure switch turns off the pump, and the high-

pressure jet comes to a stop. When the lever is pulled,

the pressure switch turns the pump on again. In addi-

tion, the overflow valve ensures that the admissible

operating pressure is not exceeded.
