Transportation
Leaving the pressure washer in an enclosed space where temperatures can rise on a
transport vehicle may cause fuel to vaporize and possibly explode. Fire and explosions
can cause severe burns and/or death. To avoid leaking or vaporizing fuel, secure the
pressure washer in a well ventilated area out of direct sunlight and other heat sources
and do not transport the pressure washer on rough roads unless the fuel has been
drained beforehand.
1.
Turn the engine control switch to the OFF position.
2.
To prevent fuel spillage when transporting, keep the pressure washer upright on a level
surface.
3.
Secure pressure washer with straps or tie downs to prevent tip over and damage from
sliding.
NOTE: Do not operate the pressure washer while it is on the transport vehicle.
