SAFETY
• Operate pressure washer ONLY outdoors.
• Keep exhaust gas from entering a confined area through windows, doors, ventilation
intakes, or other openings.
• DO NOT start or run engine indoors or in an enclosed area, even if windows and
doors are open.
• Use a respirator or mask whenever there is a chance that vapors may be inhaled.
• Read all instructions with mask so you are certain the mask will provide the
necessary protection against harmful vapors.
• NEVER pull starter cord without first relieving spray gun pressure.
• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly
to avoid kickback.
• After each starting attempt, where engine fails to run, always point spray gun in
safe direction and squeeze spray gun trigger to release pressure.
• Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high pressure spray to avoid
injury when spray gun kicks back.
• NEVER spray near a power source.
WARNING
A running engine gives off carbon monoxide, an odorless, colorless,
poison gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause headache, fatigue, dizziness,
vomiting, confusion, seizures, nausea, fainting or death.
Some chemicals or detergents may be harmful if inhaled or ingested,
causing severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
WARNING
Starter cord kickback (rapid retraction) can result in bodily injury.
Kickback will pull hand and arm toward engine faster than you can
let go.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises, or sprains could result.
WARNING
Risk of electrocution.
Contact with power source can cause electric shock
or burn.
