WARNING Failure to read and follow the
operator's manual and all operating
instructions could result in death or
serious injury.
WARNING Fuel and its vapors are extremely
flammable and explosive which could
cause burns, fire or explosion resulting
in death or serious injury. Turn pressure
washer engine OFF and let it cool at least 2
minutes before removing fuel cap. Let spilled fuel
evaporate before starting engine. Always allow
space for fuel expansion.

could cause broken bones, fractures,
bruises, or sprains resulting in serious injury.
NEVER pull starter cord without first relieving
spray gun pressure. Pull starter cord slowly until
resistance is felt, then pull rapidly. Firmly grasp
spray gun with both hands when using high
