CONNECTING THE GARDEN HOSE
See Figure 9.
CAUTION:
Always observe all local regulations when connecting
hoses to the water main. Some areas have restrictions
against connecting directly to public drinking water
supply to prevent the feedback of chemicals into
the drinking water supply. Direct connection through
a receiver tank or backflow preventer is usually
permitted.
The water supply must come from a water main. NEVER use
hot water or water from pools, lakes, etc. Before connecting
the garden hose:
 Uncoil the garden hose.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with the product to make you care-
less. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is
sufficient to inflict serious injury.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in
objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in possible
serious injury.
WARNING:
Do not use any attachments or accessories not recom-
mended by the manufacturer of this product. The use of
attachments or accessories not recommended can result
in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Never direct a water stream toward people or pets, or
any electrical device. Failure to heed this warning could
result in serious injury.
