• Spilled gasoline and it’s
vapors can become ignited
from cigarette sparks,
electrical arcing, exhaust
gases and hot engine
components such as
the muffler.
• Shut off engine and allow
it to cool before adding fuel
to the tank.
• Use care in filling tank to
avoid spilling fuel. Move pres-
sure washer away
from fueling area before
starting engine.
• Heat will expand fuel in the
tank which could result in
spillage and possible fire
explosion.
• Keep maximum fuel level
1/" (1.7 mm) below
bottom of filler neck
to allow for expansion.
• Operating the pressure
washer in an explosive
environment could
result in a fire.
• Operate and fuel equipment
in well-ventilated areas free
from obstructions. Equip
areas with fire extinguisher
suitable for gasoline fires.
• Materials placed against or
near the pressure washer
can interfere with its proper
ventilation features causing
overheating and possible
ignition of the materials.
• Never operate pressure
washer in an area containing
dry brush or weeds.
• Muffler exhaust heat can
damage painted surfaces,
melt any material sensitive
to heat (such as siding,
plastic, rubber, vinyl or the
pressure hose, itself), and
damage live plants.
• Always keep pressure washer
a minimum of 4' (1. m) away
from surfaces (such as
houses, automobiles or
live plants) that could be
damaged from muffler
exhaust heat.
• Improperly stored fuel could
lead to accidental ignition.
Fuel improperly secured
could get into the hands of
children or other unqualified
persons.
• Store fuel in an OSHA-
approved container, in a
secure location away from
work area.
• Use of acids, toxic or
corrosive chemicals,
