are hazardous to your health must not be
sprayed. Your risk from these exposures var-
ies, depending on how often you do this type
of work. To reduce your exposure to these
substances: work in a well ventilated area,
and work with approved safety equipment,
such as masks that are specifically designed
to filter out microscopic particles.
"Stay alert" . Do not allow familiarity gained
from frequent use of your pressure washer
to become commonplace. Always remem-
ber that a careless fraction of a second is suf-
ficient to inflict severe injury.
Use only accessories that are recommend-
ed by the manufacturer for your model. Ac-
cessories that may be suitable for one pres-
sure washer, may become hazardous when
used on another pressure washer.
Electrical safety
Pressure washer plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes, radia-
tors, ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the
pressure washer. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
This product is provided with a ground
fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) built into the
power cord plug. If replacement of the plug
or cord is needed, use only identical replace-
ment parts.
• GFCI does not protect against electrical
shock due to contact with both circuit con-
ductors or a fault in any wiring supplying
this device.
• Test GFCI before each use. Do not use
pressure washer and have it serviced to
correct malfunction if it fails the GFCI test.

General Safety Rules
pressure washer that cannot be controlled
with the switch may be dangerous and must
be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing pressure washers.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the pressure washer acciden-
tally.
Store idle pressure washers out of the
reach of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the pressure washer or
these instructions to operate the pressure
washer. Pressure washers are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.

ified in the manual and maintain pressure
washer. Check for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the pres-
sure washer's operation. If damaged, have
the pressure washer repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly main-
tained pressure washers.
Use the pressure washer and accessories
in accordance with these instructions, tak-
ing into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the
pressure washer for operations different from
those intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
Hold the trigger handle and lance securely
with both hands (one hand to pull the trig-
ger and the other to stabilize the trigger
handle/lance assembly). Expect the trigger
handle to move when the trigger is pulled
due to reaction forces. Failure to do so could
cause loss of control and injury to yourself and
others.
Do not use acids, alkalis, solvents, flamma-
ble material, bleaches, or industrial grade
solutions in this product. These products
can cause physical injuries to the operator
and irreversible damage to the machine. The
sprayed vapor is highly flammable, explosive
and toxic.
ONLy use water below 40° C.
Never spray close to the surface to be
cleaned. The high pressure water jet can
damage the surface.
