SAFETY FEATURES AND ELECTRICAL POWER
INFORMATION
The pressure washer is equipped with a stop device that will sense
when the trigger on the gun is released. It will open the power circuit to
the motor and cause the pressure washer motor to stop. Motor will
resume again when trigger is pulled.
The pressure washer is also equipped with a main power "ON/
OFF" switch located on the unit. It should always be moved to
the "OFF" position when the pressure washer is not being used
to prevent possible injury or damage.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter:
This pressure washer has a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) built
into the plug of the power supply cord. This device provides additional
protection from the risk of shock. Should replacement of the plug or cord
become necessary, use only identical replacement parts that include
GFCI protection.
Extension cords are not recommended unless they are plugged
into a ground fault circuit-interrupter found in circuit boxes or
protected receptacles.
