Vibration hazard:
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent
physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders. To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:
1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an
extended period should first be examined by a
doctor and then have regular medical check-
ups to ensure medical problems are not being
caused or worsened from use. Pregnant women
or people who have impaired blood circulation
to the hand, past hand injuries, nervous system
disorders, diabetes, or Raynaud's Disease should
not use this tool. If you feel any medical or
physical symptoms related to vibration (such as
tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers),
seek medical advice as soon as possible.
Service precautions
Ground Fault circuit interrupter protection
This pressure washer is provided with a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug of the
power-supply cord. This device provides additional protection from the risk of electric shock. Should replacement
of the plug or cord become necessary, use only identical replacement parts that include GFCI protection.
Servicing a Double-insulated appliance
In a double-insulated product, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding
means is provided on a double-insulated product, nor should a means for grounding be added to the
product. Servicing a double-insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system,
and should be done only by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated
product must be identical to the parts they replace. A double-insulated product is marked with the words
"DOUBLE INSULATION" or "DOUBLE INSULATED." The symbol
SKU 69488 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.
2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces
the blood supply to the hands and fingers,
increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.
3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the
vibration effects on the user.
4. Use tools with the lowest vibration when there
is a choice between different processes.
5. Include vibration-free periods each day of work.
6. To reduce vibration, maintain the tool as
explained in this manual. If any abnormal
vibration occurs, stop use immediately.
