CAUTION — SPECIFIC SAFETY ADVICE
• Avoid dangerous conditions. Always operate this product
on dry, solid and level ground.
• Never operate this product on slippery, wet, muddy, or
icy surfaces. The operating area should be free from any
obstructions. There should be plenty of room for handling,
and the operator should stay alert at all times.
• Do not use this product in wet or damp areas or expose
it to rain. Do not use it in areas where fumes from paint,
solvents or ammable liquids pose a po-tential hazard.
• Inspect this product. Check before turning it on. Keep
guards in place and in working order. Form a habit of
checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are
removed from tool area before turning it on.
• Replace damaged, missing or failed parts before using it.
Make sure all nuts, bolts, screws, hydraulic ttings, hose
clamps, etc. are securely tightened. Always check the oil

it needs to be repaired or when it is in poor mechanical
condition.
• Never move or pull this product while spraying.
• Do not run the engine at a high speed when you are not
using the product.
• Risk of electric shock. The water spray
must never be directed towards any
electric wiring, devices, or directly towards
the pressure washer itself, or fatal electric
shock may occur.
• Risk of injury. Do not direct the water
ow at people. The high-pressure jet can be
dangerous if misused, and therefore must
not be directed at people, animals, electrical
devices or the unit itself.
• Risk of explosion. When a combustible liquid is sprayed,
there can be danger of re or explosion, especially in a
closed area. Therefore, do not spray ammable liquids. Do
not use acids and solvents with this product either. These
products can cause physical injuries to the operator and
irreversible damage to the device.
• Learn how to stop the product and release the pressure
quickly. Familiarize yourself with the controls.
