2. Read and follow all handling, operations, maintenance and safety instructions
listed in this manual and the Engine Operator's manual that accompanies
this unit, and provide such information to ANYONE who will be operating

transported in an open or underheated vehicle without first allowing the
pump to thaw.
4. When connecting the water inlet to the water supply mains, local regulations
of your water company must be observed. In some areas the unit must not

that there is no feedback of the detergents into the water supply. (Direct
connection is permitted if a back flow preventer is installed.)

contact with the muffler. Avoid dragging the hose over an abrasive surface
such as cement. This causes wear and eventual rupturing.

of failure exists, promptly replace all suspect hoses to prevent the possibility
of injury from the high pressure spray. If a hose or fitting is leaking , NEVER
place your hand directly on the leak.
