Important Safety Information

General Safety

Failure to follow warnings, cautions, assembly and operation 

instructions in the Operation Manual may result in serious injury 

or death.

READ THE OPERATION MANUAL BEFORE 

OPERATION. 

•   Do not permit children to operate this equipment at any time. 

Do not permit others that have not read and understood the 

complete Operation Manual to operate this equipment.

•   Do not operate the pressure washer when under the influence of 

alcohol, drugs or medication.

•   Do not allow a person who is tired or otherwise impaired or not 

completely alert to operate the pressure washer.

NEVER place fingers, hands, or body near the pressure washer 

when it is running. Never spray towards people or animals.

•   Keep all people a minimum of six feet from the pressure washer 

during operation.

•    Do not carry the spray handle with your finger on the trigger.

•    Use this equipment with both hands only. Using equipment with 

only one hand can result in loss of control.

•   Do not leave the pressure washer unattended when it is running. 

Turn off the engine before leaving the area.

•     Never run the pressure washer in an enclosed area or without 

proper ventilation. The exhaust from the engine contains carbon 

monoxide, which is an odorless, tasteless, and deadly poisonous. 

•    Fill the gasoline tank outdoors with the engine off and allow the 

engine to cool completely.

•     Do not operate the engine with the air cleaner or cover over the 

carburetor air-intake removed, except for adjustment. Removal of 

such parts could create a fire hazard.

•     

The muffler and engine become very hot with use and can cause 

a severe burn; do not touch. Allow the engine to cool before 

refueling, doing maintenance, or making adjustments.

•      

Only use cold water or pressure washer detergent in this tool. 

Do not use caustic materials, solvents, flammable materials, or 

detergents not designed for pressure washers.
