If the operator is not fluent in English,
the manufacturer’s instructions and
warnings shall be read to and dis-
cussed with the operator in the opera-
tor’s native language by the purchaser/
owner, making sure that the operator
comprehends its contents.
–
Owner and/or user must study and
maintain for future reference the manu-
facturers’ instructions.
This product must be grounded. If it should
malfunction or breakdown, grounding pro-
vides a path of least resistance for electric
current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This product is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly in-
stalled and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electrocution. Check with a qualified electri-
cian or service personnel if you are in doubt
as to whether the outlet is properly ground-
ed. Do not modify the plug provided with
the product - if it will not fit the outlet, have
a proper outlet installed by a qualified elec-
trician. Do not use any type of adapter with
this product.
This product is supplied with a Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) built into the
power cord plug. This device provides addi-
tional protection from the risk of electric
shock. If power is interrupted in the line, the
GFCI will automatically re-close the circuit
to the load after power is restored. Depend-
ing on the GFCI model, it may be neces-
sary to manually operate the reset button to
restore power to the GFCI load circuit. If re-
placement of the plug or cord is needed use
identical replacement parts.

CAUTION
When connecting the water inlet to the wa-
ter supply mains, local regulations of your
water company must be observed. In some
areas the unit must not be connected di-
rectly to the public drinking water supply.
This is to ensure that there is no feedback
of chemicals into the water supply. Direct
connection via a receiver tank or backflow
preventer, for example, is permitted.
Always connect the system separator to
the water supply, never directly to the appli-
ance!
Dirt in the feed water will damage the unit.
To avoid this risk, we recommend fitting a
water filter.
–
Garden hose must be at least 1/2 inch
in diameter.
–
Flow rate of water supply must not fall
below 2.5 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 86°F/30°C.
–
Never use the pressure washer to draw
in water contaminated with solvents,
e.g. paint thinners, gasoline, oil, etc.
–
Always prevent debris from being
drawn into the unit by using a clean wa-
ter source. Use additional water filter.
