• Operate engine only at governed speed. Running the
engine at excessive speeds increases the hazard of
personal injury. Do Not tamper with parts which may
increase or decrease the governed speed.
• Do Not wear loose clothing, jewelry or anything that
may be caught in the starter or other rotating parts.
• Before starting the pressure washer in cold weather,
check all parts of the equipment and be sure ice has not
formed there.
• Never use a spray gun which does not have a trigger lock
or trigger guard in place and in working order.
• Keep the hose connected to machine or the spray gun
while the system is pressurized. Disconnecting the hose
while the unit is pressurized is dangerous.
• Never operate units with broken or missing parts, or
without protective housing or covers.
• Operate and store this unit on a stable surface.
• Check the fuel system for leaks or signs of deterioration,
such as chafed or spongy hose, loose or missing clamps,
or damaged tank or cap. Correct all defects before
operating the pressure washer.
• Do Not spray flammable liquids.
• Do Not secure the spray gun in the open position.
• 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 inhaling harmful vapors.
• Never aim the spray gun at people, animals or plants.
The high pressure stream of water that this equipment
produces can pierce skin and its underlying tissues,
leading to serious injury and possible amputation.
• Never allow any part of the body to come in contact
with the fluid stream. Do Not come in contact with a
fluid stream created by a leak in the high pressure hose.
• Always wear eye protection when you use this
equipment or when you are in the vicinity where the
equipment is in use.
• High pressure spray can cause paint chips or other
particles to become airborne.
• Do Not operate the pressure washer above the rated
pressure.

• Never move the machine by pulling on the high pressure
hose. Use the handle provided on the unit.
• Always be certain the spray gun, nozzles and accessories
are correctly attached.
• High pressure spray may damage fragile items including
glass. Do Not point spray gun at glass when in the jet
spray mode.
• Hold the spray gun firmly in your hand before you start
the unit. Failure to do so could result in an injury from a
whipping spray gun. Do Not leave the spray gun
unattended while the machine is running.
• The cleaning area should have adequate slopes and
drainage to reduce the possibility of a fall due to slippery
surfaces.
• Keep water spray away from electric wiring or fatal
electric shock may result.
• Do Not by–pass any safety device on this machine.
• The muffler and engine heat up during operation and
remain hot immediately after shutting it down. Avoid
contact with a hot muffler or engine as you could be
severely burned.
• High pressure hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking,
abuse, etc. Water spraying from a leak is capable of
injecting material into skin. Inspect hose each time before
using it. Check all hoses for cuts, leaks, abrasions or
bulging of cover, or damage or movement of couplings. If
any of these conditions exist, replace hose immediately.
Never repair high pressure hose. Replace it with
another hose that exceeds maximum pressure rating of
your unit.
• The muffler and air cleaner must be installed and in good
condition before operating the pressure washer. These
components act as spark arresters if the engine backfires.
In the State of California a spark arrester is required by law
(Section 4442 of the California Public Resources Code).
Other states may have similar laws. Federal laws apply on
federal lands.
NOTE: If you equip the muffler with a spark arrester, it
must be maintained in effective working order. You can
order a spark arrester through your authorized Briggs and
Stratton service dealer.
