WARNING
￭ In the event of an emergency:
– Switch off the motor immediately and disconnect the
pressure washer from the power supply.
￭ To reduce the risk of fire/explosion resulting in serious or
fatal injury or property damage:
￭ Because of the high pressure and spray velocity, fluids
can penetrate the skin and cause fluid injection and/or
severe injury.
– Do not direct the high-pressure jet into places you
cannot see.
– Switch off the pressure washer, relieve system
pressure and lock the spray gun trigger before
changing or adjusting any spray nozzle or
accessory.
– If an accident does occur and the spray appears to
have penetrated the skin, seek emergency medical
care. Do not treat as a simple cut.
￭ To reduce the risk of property damage or serious personal
injury:
– Start work at the greatest effective distance from the
surface being cleaned. Do not move so close that
the surface is damaged by the force of the spray.
– Be especially careful when spraying softer materials
such as fabric.
– Use caution when directing spray toward fragile
materials such as glass. It could shatter.
