10.1 Testing the GFCI

WARNING
To reduce the risk of electrocution, always test the GFCI
each time you plug in your unit and before you start work.
The pressure washer has an electrical protection
mechanism. The GFCI is an important safety device that is
intended to protect the operator and bystanders from the risk
of electric shock or electrocution. It is designed to quickly
and automatically disconnect a circuit when it detects that
the electric current is not balanced.
A GFCI does not provide protection against unexpected or
dangerously high current. Therefore it cannot replace a fuse
or protect against overheating or fire risk due to over-current
(overload) or short circuits if the fault does not lead to
current leakage.
