WARNING
Starter cord kickback (rapid retraction) can result in
bodily injury. Kickback will pull hand and arm toward
engine faster than you can let go.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises, or sprains could
result.
• NEVER pull starter cord without first relieving spray gun pressure.
• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and then
pull rapidly to avoid kickback.
• After each starting attempt, where engine fails to run, always point
spray gun in safe direction and squeeze spray gun trigger to release
high pressure.
• Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high pressure
spray to avoid injury when spray gun kicks back.
WARNING
Running engine gives off carbon monoxide, an odorless,
colorless, poison gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause headache,
fatigue, dizziness, vomiting, confusion, seizures, nausea,
fainting or death.
Some chemicals or detergents may be harmful if inhaled
or ingested, causing severe nausea, fainting, or
poisoning.
• Operate pressure washer ONLY outdoors.
• Keep exhaust gas from entering a confined area through windows,
doors, ventilation intakes, or other openings.
• DO NOT start or run engine indoors or in an enclosed area, even if
windows and doors are open.
• Use a respirator or mask whenever there is a chance that vapors may
be inhaled.
• Read all instructions with mask so you are certain the mask will
provide the necessary protection against inhaling harmful vapors.
