Proper attire is essential to your safety. It is advised to utilize whatever
means necessary to protect eyes, ears, and skin. Additional safety attire
(such as respiratory mask) may be required when using detergent cleaning
agents with this washer.
SETUP:
1. This unit should only be placed on a level surface to ensure proper lubrication
for the engine and water pump while operating.
2. Do not use unit in an area:
a. with insufficient ventilation.
b. where there is evidence of oil, gas or fuel leaks.
c. where flammable gas vapors may be present.
3. Be certain to block the wheels to prevent the unit from moving while
operating.
4. Do not allow the unit to be exposed to rain, snow or freezing temperatures.
If any part of the unit becomes frozen, excessive pressure may build up in
the unit which could cause it to burst resulting in possible serious injury to
the operator or bystanders.
5. Pump oil level should be checked before each use. Check the oil level
indicator on the pump crankcase. Make certain the oil is in the center of
the oil sight glass. If the level appears to be low, fill with Mi-T-M pump oil
