DANGER: RISK OF FLUID INJECTION AND LACERATION
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
• Your pressure washer operates at fluid
pressures and velocities high enough
to penetrate human and animal flesh,
which could result in amputation or
other serious injury. Leaks caused
by loose fittings or worn or damaged
hoses can result in injection injuries.
DO NOT TREAT FLUID INJECTION
AS A SIMPLE CUT! See a physician
immediately!
• Injuries can result if system pressure
is not reduced before attempting
maintenance or disassembly.
DANGER: RISK TO BREATHING (ASPHYXIATION)
HOW TO PREVENT IT
• Operate pressure washer in a well-
ventilated area. Avoid en c losed areas
such as ga r ages, base m ents, etc.
• Never op e r a te unit in or near a lo c a t ion
occupied by humans or animals.
• Use only clean i ng fluids spe c if i c ally rec-
om m end e d for high-pressure washers.
Fol l ow manufacturers recommendations.
Do not use chlorine bleach or any other
corrosive compound.
HOW TO PREVENT IT
• Inspect the high-pressure hose regularly.
Replace the hose immediately if it is
damaged, worn, has melted from
contacting the engine, or shows any signs
of cracks, bubbles, pinholes, or other
leakage. Never grasp a high-pressure
hose that is leaking or damaged.
• Never touch, grasp or attempt to cover a
pinhole or similar water leak on the high-
pressure hose. The stream of water IS
under high pressure and WILL penetrate
skin.
• Never place hands in front of noz z le.
• Direct spray away from self and others.
• Make sure hose and fit t ings are tightened
and in good condition. Never hold onto
the hose or fittings during op e r a t ion.

fittings while sys t em is pres s ur i zed.
• When using replacement lances or guns
with this pressure washer, DO NOT use
a lance and/or lance/gun combination

provided with this pressure washer as
measured from the nozzle end of the
lance to the gun trigger.
• To relieve sys t em pres s ure, shut off
engine, turn off water sup p ly and pull gun
trigger until water stops flowing.
• Use only accessories rated equal to or
higher than the rating of the pressure
washer.
