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 TREA
T 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.
