IV. CHILDREN SPECIFIC
1. Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often
attracted to the machine. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.
2. Keep children out of the operating area and under the watchful care of a responsible adult other than
the operator.
V. FIRE AND FUEL SPECIFIC
1. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other sources of ignition.
2. Use only an approved fuel container.
3. Do not remove fuel cap or add fuel with the engine running or while hot.

5. Do not store the machine or fuel container, or refuel, where there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light
such as on a water heater or other appliance.
6. If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine and avoid creating any source of ignition until fuel
vapors have dissipated.

8. Do not spray flammable liquids.
VI. HAULING
1. If pressure washer is equipped with a fuel shut-off valve, turn the valve to the OFF position before
transporting to avoid fuel leaks. If pressure washer is not equipped with a fuel shut-off valve, drain
the fuel from tank before transporting. Only transport fuel in an OSHA-approved container.

vehicle from leaks.

immediately upon arrival at your destination.

WARNING: Fluid escaping under pressure may have sufficient force to penetrate skin and cause
serious injury. If fluid is injected into the skin, seek immediate medical attention. Keep body and
hands away from pin holes or nozzles that eject fluid under high pressure. If a leak occurs, have the
machine immediately serviced by a trained technician.
3. If equipped, disconnect spark plug wire(s) before making any repairs.
