WARNING: Risk of eye injury. Spray can
splash back or propel objects.
· Always wear safety goggles when using this
equipment or in vicinity of where equipment
is in use.
· Before starting the pressure washer, be sure
you are wearing adequate safety goggles.
· NEVER substitute safety glasses for safety
goggles.
PRESSURE WASHER LOCATION
WARNING: Exhaust heat/gases can ignite
combustibles, structures or damage fuel tank
causing a fire. Keep at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) clear-
ance on all sides of pressure washer including
overhead.
• Place pressure washer in a well ventilated
area, which will allow for removal of deadly
exhaust gas. Do not place pressure washer
where exhaust gas could accumulate and enter
inside or be drawn into a potentially occupied
building. Ensure exhaust gas is kept away from
any windows, doors, ventilation intakes, or
other openings that can allow exhaust gas to
collect in a confined area.
WARNING: Running engine gives off car-
bon monoxide, an odorless, colorless, poison
gas. Breathing carbon monoxide can cause
headache, fatigue, dizziness, vomiting, confu-
sion, seizures,nausea, fainting or death.
· Operate pressure washer ONLY outdoors.
· Keep exhaust gas from entering a confined
area through windows, doors, ventilation in-
takes, or other openings.
· DO NOT start or run engine indoors or in an
enclosed area, even if windows and doors are
open.
LOW OIL SENSOR
The engine is equipped with an oil sensor. If
the oil level becomes lower than required, the
sensor will activate a warning device and stop
the engine. If the machine turns off and the
oil level is within specifications, check that the
pressure washer is not placed at an angle that
forces the oil level to change.
Place the pressure washer in an even area to
correct this problem. If it doesn't start, the oil
level could not be enough to shut off the auto-
matic "low oil" switch. Make sure the oil cap is
in the correct level.

STARTING THE PRESSURE WASHER
Follow these instructions to safely start your
pressure washer:
1. Check engine oil level; fill to recommended
level if necessary. Check gasoline level fill if
necessary.
2. Connect garden hose to the pump inlet con-
nector and TURN WATER ON. The water supply
must provide a minimum of 4 GPM at 20 PSI or
the pump may be damaged.
3. Squeeze gun trigger. This will allow air to
escape from the hose in order to prime the
pump. Squeeze trigger until there is a steady
flow of water.
4. Turn engine switch to the "On" position.
5. Starting:
Cold start: if the engine is cold, close the Choke
lever by moving the lever to the "CLOSE" posi-
tion.
Warm start: when engine is warm, keep the
choke lever at "OPEN" position then start en-
gine.
6. Locate recoil cord and pull slowly until resis-
tance is felt. At this point, pull rapidly to start
engine. Repeat if necessary.
7. Once engine starts, moving the lever to the
"Open" position.
8. If motor fails to start, repeat steps 3-8.
HOW TO STOP
· Release spray gun trigger and let engine idle
for two minutes.
· Move throttle control lever on engine to
"Stop" position.
· ALWAYS point spray gun in a safe direction,
press red button and squeeze spray gun trigger
to release retained high water pressure.
IMPORTANT: Spray gun traps high water
pressure, even when engine is stopped and
water is disconnected.
