The high pressure spray from your pressure washer is
capable of causing damage to surfaces such as wood,
glass, automobile paint, auto striping and trim, and delicate objects such as
flowers and shrubs. Before spraying, check the item to be cleaned to assure
yourself that it is strong enough to resist damage from the force of the spray.

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS BEFORE STARTING UNIT
When using the high pressure setting, DO NOT allow the high
pressure spray to come in contact with unprotected skin, eyes,
or with any pets or animals. Serious injury can occur.
Your washer operates at fluid pressures and velocities high enough to penetrate
human and animal flesh, which could result in amputation or other serious injury.
Leaks caused by loose fittings or worn or damaged hoses can result in injection
injuries. DO NOT TREAT FLUID INJECTION AS A SIMPLE CUT! See a physician
immediately!
NEVER fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do not
smoke when filling fuel tank.
NEVER fill fuel tank completely. Fill tank to 1/2" below bottom of filler neck
to provide space for fuel expansion. Wipe any fuel spillage from engine and
equipment before starting engine.
NEVER run engine indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas. Engine exhaust
contains carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly gas.
DO NOT let hoses come in contact with very hot engine muffler during or
immediately after use of your pressure washer. Damage to hoses from contact with
hot engine surfaces will NOT be covered by warranty.
NEVER pull water supply hose to move pressure washer. This
could damage hose and/or pump inlet.
DO NOT use hot water, use cold water only.
NEVER turn water supply off while pressure washer engine is running or damage to
pump will result.
DO NOT stop spraying water for more than two minutes at a time. Pump operates
in bypass mode when spray gun trigger is not pressed. If pump is left in bypass
mode for more than two minutes internal components of the pump can be
damaged.
If you do not understand these precautions, please call 1-888-559-8550 to
speak to a service representative for further instructions.
