Use only extension cords that are in-
tended for outdoor use. These ex-
tension cords are identified by the
marking “Acceptable for use with
outdoor appliances; store indoors
while not in use.”
Use only extension cords having an
electrical rating not less than the rat-
ing of the product.
Do not use damaged extension
cords.Examine extension cord be-
fore using and replace if damaged.
Do not abuse extension cord and do
not yank on any cord to disconnect.
Keep cord away from heat and sharp
edges.
Always disconnect the extension
cord from the receptacle before dis-
connecting the product from the ex-
tension cord.
If you are using an extension cord, it
should always be completely un-

WARNING
To reduce the risc of electrocution, keep
all connections dry and off the ground.
Do not touch plug with wet hands.
CAUTION
When connecting the water inlet to the
water supply mains, local regulations of
your water company must be observed.
In some areas the unit must not be con-
nected directly to the public drinking wa-
ter 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.
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 or 5/8 inch in diameter.
Flow rate of water supply must not
fall below 2 GPM (gallons per
minute).
Flow rate can be determined by run-
ning 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 sol-
vents, e.g. paint thinners, gasoline,
oil, etc.
Always prevent debris from being
drawn into the unit by using a clean
water source.
