SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
W A R N I N G
High pressure jets can be dangerous if subject to misuse. The jet must not be directed at
people, animals, electrical devices, or the machine itself.
• Keep the motor away from flammables and other hazardous materials.
• Check bolts and nuts for looseness before each use. A loose bolt or nut may cause serious
motor problems.
• Before storing, allow the motor to cool.
• When servicing use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a
hazard or cause product damage.
• ONLY use cold water.
• Make sure minimum clearance of 3 feet is maintained from combustible materials.
• Connect pressure washer only to an individual branch circuit.
• Hold the handle and wand securely with both hands. Expect the trigger handle to move
when the trigger is pulled due to reaction forces. Failure to do so could cause loss of control
and injury to yourself and others.
• Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct other users. If you
loan someone this product, loan them these instructions also.
W A R N I N G
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber. Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust
masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
