6.0 FLOWS AND PRESSURES

The Hurricane and Hurricane RC monitor is designed for a maximum pressure of 200 psi (14 bar). See section 3.1 for fl ow pressure
operating envelope. Do not exceed these limits.
The stream exiting a monitor is very powerful and capable of causing injury and property damage.
WARNING
Make sure the monitor is securely attached to the base and pointing in a safe direction before
water to the monitor is turned on. Use care in directing the stream.
Because the stream trajectory can obscure the view of the operator, it is recommended that a spotter be used to accurately direct
the stream.
