Place pressure washer in a suitable location for use, as directed in the “Before Each
Use, Step 3: Select Suitable Worksite” section of this manual. A suitable location is:
• OUTDOORS only, away from all building air intakes.
• Where no flammable vapors, dusts, and gases are present.
• Where there is adequate, unobstructed ventilation airflow.
• With adequate clearance from combustible materials.
• On a firm, level, heat-resistant surface with good drainage and
nearby access to a continuous water supply.
DANGER: Carbon monoxide poisoning hazard
Exhaust fumes from both the engine and the burner contain carbon
monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see, smell, or taste. The CO
generated by the pressure washer can rapidly accumulate, even in areas that
appear to be well ventilated, resulting in dangerous and fatal concentrations
within minutes. ONLY run pressure washer OUTDOORS and at least 20
feet from the home, away from windows, vents and air intakes, to allow
proper ventilation. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using the
pressure washer, shut off the engine and get to fresh air RIGHT AWAY.
NEVER run pressure washer inside any enclosed or semi-enclosed spaces,
including homes, garages, basements, sheds, boxes, pick-up truck beds,
RVs, or boats. These spaces can trap poisonous gases, EVEN if you run a
fan or open windows.
