• It is a violation of California Public Resource Code, Section 4442, to use or oper-
ate the engine on any forest covered, brush-covered, or grass-covered land unless
the exhaust system is equipped with a spark arrester, as defined in section 4442,
maintained in effective working order. Other states or federal jurisdictions may
have similar laws.
Contact the original equipment manufacturer, retailer, or dealer to obtain a spark
arrester designed for the exhaust system installed on this engine.

original parts.
HOW TO STOP YOUR PRESSURE WASHER

2. Push engine rocker switch to OFF position.
3. ALWAYS point spray gun at a safety direction, release the grey trigger lock, and
squeeze the trigger to release retained high water pressure.
WARNING! The high pressure stream of water that this pressure washer
produces could cut through skin and its underlying tissues, resulting in serious
injury and possible amputation.

• Keep high pressure hose connected to pump and spray gun while system is
pressurized.
• Every time you stop engine, ALWAYS spray gun in a direction, release the grey
trigger lock, and squeeze spray gun trigger to release high pressure.
NOTE: A small amount of water will squirt out when you release the pressure.
HOW TO USE QUICK-CONNECT NOZZLES
