washer. Your home's electrical circuit receptacle or extension
cord may not provide lifesaving ground-fault
circuit-interruption protection.
• Plug electrical power cord into an electrical circuit rated for
7.
120 Volts AC at 15 Amps that is properly installed in ac-
cordance with all local codes and ordinances. The indicator
light on the GFCI should be ON.

is engaged. To stop the electric pressure washer and turn off the
motor:
1. Release spray gun trigger.
2. Turn the master ON/OFF switch to the OFF (O) position by
turning the dial counter-clockwise. NOTICE Releasing the
trigger will shut off the motor but does not shut off electrical
power to the unit.
3. Turn off water supply.

WARNING The high pressure stream of water that this
equipment produces could cut through skin and its
underlying tissues, resulting in serious injury and
possible amputation.
Spray gun traps high water pressure, even when motor is
stopped and water is disconnected, which could result in serious
injury.
• Keep high pressure hose connected to pump and spray gun
while system is pressurized.
• ALWAYS point spray gun in safe direction, squeeze spray gun
trigger to release high pressure, every time you turn off pressure
washer.

sories on the unit.
