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!
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,

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.

of noz zle.
• Direct spray away from self

• Make sure hose and fit t ings
are tight ened and in good
condition. Never hold onto
the hose or fittings during

pressure is not reduced
before attempting
maintenance or
disassembly.
