The machine has hot surfaces
which can cause burns. Operate
the unit in a safe environment and
away from children.
Do not touch hot surfaces or allow
accessories to contact hot surfac-
es.
Do not allow the high pressure hose
to come into contact with the muffler
guard.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
CAUTION
When connecting the water inlet to
the water supply mains, local regu-
lations of your water company must
be observed. In some areas the unit
must not be connected directly to
the public drinking water supply.
This is to ensure that there is no
feedback of chemicals into the wa-
ter supply. Direct connection via a
receiver tank or backflow preventer,
for example, is permitted.
Dirt in the feed water will damage
the unit. To avoid this risk, we rec-
ommend fitting a water filter.
Garden hose must be at least 5/8
inch in diameter.
Flow rate of water supply must not
fall below 4.0 GPM (gallons per
minute).
Flow rate can be determined by
running the water for one minute
into an empty 5-gallon container.
The water supply temperature must
not exceed 104°F/40°C.
Never use the pressure washer to
draw in water contaminated with
solvents, e.g. paint thinners, gaso-
line, oil, etc.
Always prevent debris from being
drawn into the unit by using a clean
water source. Use additional water
filter.
Do not operate pressure washer
without the water turned on.
