SAFETY INFORMATIONSAFETY INFORMATION
13. Keep fingers, hands, feet and any
part of your body clear of the stream
of high pressure water. The powerful
spray can cause blindness or blast
holes in the skin. It can break a window
if you are too close when you pull the
trigger on the spray gun.
14. ALWAYS wear eye protection to
prevent injury to eyes when operating
the power washer.
15. To avoid mishaps or injury, ALWAYS
use the trigger safety lock when not
using the power washer even if the
spraying stops for a moment.
16. The power washer is equipped with a
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
which greatly reduces the chance of
electric shock while the unit is in use.
If replacement of the plug or cord is
needed, use only identical replacement
parts.
17. Point the spray gun in a safe direction
when beginning a power washing
session.
18. NEVER spray directly at a person,
animal, electrical device or the unit
itself.
19. When first using the spray gun, hold
the spray gun and lance with two
hands when pulling the trigger (one
hand to pull the trigger and the other
to stabilize the gun assembly) until you
get used to the “kickback” from the
spray gun.
20. When you press the power switch
to turn o the power washer, water
pressure may remain in the system.
To discharge the pressure, point the
spray gun in a safe direction and pull
the trigger.
21. NEVER spray flammable liquids.
22. NEVER use the power washer in areas
that contain combustible dust, liquids
or vapors.
23. Avoid contact of the pressure hose
with sharp objects and examine the
hose regularly. Replace if damaged.
Due to the high pressure involved, it
cannot be repaired if cut or damaged.
24. Only use detergent specifically
formulated for power washers and
follow instructions on the detergent’s
label.
25. Protect eyes, lungs, and skin from
exposure to detergent. Dish or laundry
soap is too thick and will clog the
nozzle of your detergent bottle.
IMPORTANT: Store the power washer
indoors to prevent the water in the
unit from expanding under freezing
conditions. When the water freezes and
expands, your power washer will be
damaged and become inoperable. Or, if
storing outdoors, it is recommended you
use pump saver (not included) to protect
pumps.
26. NEVER use hot water with your power
washer. It will overheat and damage
the high pressure pump.
27. NEVER leave the power washer
unattended while it is powered “ON”.
28. ALWAYS turn the water supply “ON
