SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1.  High pressure sprays can cause serious bodily injury. Do not aim the spray gun at people, animals or plants.

2.  Do not spray flammable or toxic liquids.

3.  Do not spray near a power source.

4.  Do not leave the spray gun unattended while the unit is running.

5.  Do not lock the spray gun in open position.

6.  Only use a spray gun that has a trigger lock or trigger guard in place and in working order.

7.  Using a pressure washer can create puddles and slippery surfaces. The work area should have adequate 

slopes and drainage to reduce the possibility of falling due to slips.

8.  Be careful when squeezing the trigger, as recoil from the spray gun can cause the operator to fall.

9.  Always operate the pressure washer from a stable surface. Avoid using the pressure washer from precarious 

locations such as ladders or scaffolding.

10. Do not attempt to repair damaged or defective high-pressure hoses. Always replace them.

11. Do not repair leaking connections with sealant of any kind. Replace the O-ring or seal.

12. Do not disconnect the high-pressure hose from the pump and spray gun while the system is pressurized.

13. Always ensure that the spray gun, nozzles, and accessories are correctly attached.

14. Do not use other electrical appliances on the same fuse/breaker box switch as the pressure washer. This may 

cause the circuit breaker to trip and cut off power.

15. Do not use an extension cord with this unit; use a longer high-pressure discharge hose instead.

16. Do not plug this pressure water into a hot water supply. This pressure washer is designed for cold  

water use only.

17. To minimize the amount of water getting into the pressure washer, the unit should be placed as far as 

possible from the cleaning site during operation.

18. Prior to starting the pressure washer in cold weather, be sure ice has not formed in any part of  

the equipment.

19. Ensure the pressure washer is not covered during operation to avoid overheating the motor.

20. This pressure washer is capable of producing pressures up to 2,000 PSI. To avoid property damage and 

personal injury, do not operate the pump with components rated for less than 2,000 PSI working pressure.

21. If connecting the pressure washer to a portable water system, ensure the water system is protected  

against backflow.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 

Electrical Safety Precautions

WARNING! 

To reduce risk of electric shock, be certain that the plug is connected to a properly 

grounded receptacle.

1.  Disconnect tool from power source before cleaning, servicing, changing parts/accessories or when  

not in use.

2.  Protect yourself against electric shocks when working on electrical equipment. Avoid body contact with 

grounded surfaces. There is an increased chance of electrical shock if your body is grounded.

3.  Do not disconnect the power cord in place of using the ON/OFF switch on the tool. This will prevent an 

accidental startup when the power cord is plugged into the power supply. 

4.  Do not alter any parts of the tool or accessories. All parts and accessories are designed with built-in safety 

features that may be compromised if altered.

5.  Make certain that power source conforms to

 

requirements of your equipment.

6.  When wiring an electrically driven device, follow all electrical and safety codes, as well as the most recent 

Canadian Electrical Code (CE) and Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS).

WARNING! All wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician.
