ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR PRESSURE WASHERS
1. The pressure washer must be continuously run with water. Dry running may cause serious damage to
the seals.
2. Do not store the pressure washer in cold places and protect the machine from freezing conditions.
3. Never leave the pressure washer switched ‘ON’ for more than 1 minute with the spray lance in the ‘OFF’
or closed position. If the unit is left for longer periods the temperature of the water in the pump unit will
rise and may damage the pump seals.
4. Do not use the pressure washer in an enclosed area where ventilation may be restricted, never cover the
pressure washer whilst in use.
5. For your own safety do not use the pressure washer during a thunderstorm and avoid directing the water
jet at the pressure washer or power supply.
6. Never direct the water jet towards persons or animals. The water jet is very powerful and could cause a
serious injury.
7. When moving the pressure washer use the handle provided. Do not pull the pressure washer using the
high pressure lance hose or mains supply cable.
8. When you have finished using the pressure washer switch the machine ‘OFF’ and disconnect from the
power supply. Now discharge any remaining pressure in the high pressure hose by pulling the lance
trigger.
