IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
RISK OF BURSTING
Serious injury may occur from a pressure washer malfunction or exploding
accessories if incorrect system components, attachments or accessories
are used.
Never make adjustments to the factory set pressures.
Never exceed manufacturers maximum allowable pressure rating of attach-
ments.
Do not allow any hoses to make contact with the engine, muffler, or heat
exchanger to prevent the possibility of bursting. Avoid dragging the hoses
over abrasive surfaces such as cement.
Serious injury or death may occur if attempting to start the pressure washer
when the pump is frozen.
Use only manufacturer recommended repair parts for your pressure washer.
In freezing temperatures, the unit must always be warm enough to ensure
there is no ice formation in the pump. Do not start the pressure washer if it
has been transported in an open or non heated vehicle without first allowing
the entire unit to thaw.
RISK FROM MOVING PARTS
Serious injury may occur to the operator from moving parts on the pressure
washer.
Before making any adjustments, be certain the engine is turned off. Be cer-
tain to disconnect the battery ground terminal before servicing and the igni-
tion cable(s) is removed from the spark plug(s). Turning the machinery over
by hand during adjustment or cleaning might start the engine and machinery
with it.
Do not operate the unit without all protective covers in place.
RISK OF BODILY INJURY
Serious injury or death may occur from detergents contacting the skin.
Seek emergency medical care if you are using cleaning agents and the
spray appears to have penetrated the skin! Do not treat as a simple cut.
Be prepared to tell a physician exactly what kind of detergents you were
using by reading the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) provided with your
detergent.
Never use any solvents or highly corrosive detergents or acid type cleaners
with this pressure washer.
Protective equipment such as rubber suits, gloves and respirators are ad-
visable, especially when using cleaning detergents.
Keep all detergents out of the reach of children!
Always wear protective goggles when operating the unit to shield the eyes
from flying debris and detergents.
Serious injury can occur from loose debris being propelled at a high speed
from the spray gun.
Do not direct spray toward fragile materials such as glass for shattering
could occur.
Stay alert-watch what you are doing. Do not operate the unit when fatigued
or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Never squeeze the trigger unless securely braced.
Do not overreach or stand on unstable support.
