Safe Operation
Adult control only.
Only trained adults should set up and operate the pressure washer. Do not let children operate. Pressure
washers can generate forces greater than children can control and require judgment beyond what can be expected of children.
Under the influence.
Never operate, or let anyone else operate, the pressure washer while fatigued or under the influence of
alcohol, drugs, or medication.
Safety equipment / controls in place.
Do not operate the pressure washer unless all safety covers, guards, and barriers are in
place and in good working order, and all controls are properly adjusted for safe operation.
Damaged.
Do not operate the pressure washer with damaged, missing, or broken parts. Never attempt to repair a high pressure
hose or component. Always replace it with a part that is rated at or above the pressure rating of the machine.
Modifications.
Do not modify the pressure washer in any way or deactivate any safety device. Do not change or add to fuel tank,
fuel lines, or exhaust system.
Modifications can result in hazards related to carbon monoxide poisoning, fuel leaks, fire, explosion or other serious safety hazards,
and will also void the warranty.
