ELECTRICAL

DOUBLE INSULATION

Double insulation eliminates the need for a three-wire grounded power cord. Double insulated products do not need to be grounded because exposed metal parts are covered in protective insulation that isolates them from internal metal motor components.

A double insulated system is designed to protect against shock caused by a break in the product's internal insulation. To avoid electric shock, follow all ordinary safety procedures.

NOTE: Double insulated products should only be serviced by qualified service technicians. For more information, contact Westinghouse customer service toll-free at 1 (855) 944-3571.

AC MOTOR

The electric motor in this product was designed to work with a nominal 120V/60Hz AC power supply (average U.S. household circuit). It is not intended to operate on direct current (DC). A significant voltage drop will result in a loss of power and could damage the motor.

GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION

See Figure 1:

FIG. 1

1. TEST Button
2. RESET Button

This pressure washer has a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug of the power-supply cord. A GFCI protects against ground fault currents such as a current that would flow through a person standing on a wet surface while holding a product with faulty insulation. GFCI plugs do not protect against shocks, short circuits, and overloads. If replacement of the plug or cord is necessary, use identical replacement parts that include GFCI protection.

To test the GFCI:

• Plug the power supply cord into a receptacle.
• Press the TEST button and listen for a "click" indicating that the connection to the power supply was broken.
• Press the RESET button to restore power to the device. The LED light will turn on when power is restored.

Test the GFCI monthly to ensure proper operation.

  NOTE: Always test in a small inconspicuous area to avoid or reduce damage.
• Start cleaning at the bottom of the surface and work your way up in a side-to-side motion.

OPERATING TIPS

• It is normal to hear the motor run intermittently when the trigger is not being squeezed. The pump is priming itself to operate when the trigger is squeezed again.
• To avoid damaging surfaces:
  • Always use an appropriate nozzle
  • Reduce water pressure by adjusting the angle of the stream or by increasing the distance from the nozzle to the surface.
• Always spray detergent on a dry surface. Do not pre-soak surface. Wetting the surface first dilutes the detergent and reduces its cleaning ability.
• For tough stains, it may be necessary to reapply the detergent and use a bristled brush to scrub the stain.
• Keep a nozzle cleaning tool nearby for unclogging the nozzles.
• The O-rings in the high pressure hose should be cleaned regularly and lubricated with non-water soluble grease such as petroleum jelly.
• Turn off the pressure washer after five minutes of inactivity.
