MOVING THE PRESSURE WASHER
See Figure 19.
NOTE: Never lift or carry this product using the handle.
 Turn the pressure washer off.

HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
Your engine is configured for operation below 2,000 feet
altitude at the factory. Your engine must be reconfigured for
operation above 2,000 feet altitude. Operating the engine
with the wrong engine configuration at a given altitude may
increase its emissions, decrease fuel efficiency, degrade per-
formance, and cause irreversible damage. Engines configured
for high altitude operation cannot be operated in standard
altitude conditions. A qualified service center should ensure
that your engine is properly configured for your location.
