IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Servicing of a double-insulated machine: In a double-insulated machine, two systems of insulation are
provided instead of grounding. No grounding means are provided for a double-insulated machine. Nor
should grounding means be added the machine. Servicing a double-insulated machine requires extreme
care and knowledge of the system and should be done only by a qualified technician.
DO NOT
use pressure that exceeds the operating pressure of any of the parts (hoses, fittings etc) in the
pressurized system. Ensure all equipment and accessories are rated to withstand the maximum working
pressure of the unit.
WARNING EXPLOSION HAZARD: NEVER
spray flammable liquids or use a pressure washer in areas
containing combustible dust, liquids or vapors.
NEVER
operate the machine in a closed building or in or
near an explosive environment.
DO NOT
spray the electrical apparatus and wiring.
NEVER
disconnect the high pressure discharge hose
from the machine while the system is pressurized. To de-pressurize the machine, turn the power and water
supply off, then press the gun trigger 2-3 times.
NEVER
permanently engage the trigger mechanism on the gun.
NEVER
operate the machine without all components in place and connected properly. (Handle, trigger
gun, nozzle etc.)
ALWAYS
turn the water supply
ON
before turning the pressure washer
ON
. Running the washer dry will
cause damage to the machine.
DO NOT
operate the pressure washer with the inlet water screen removed. Keep the screen clear of debris
and sediment.
ALWAYS
hold the gun and wand firmly when operating the machine.
NEVER
allow the machine to run with
the trigger released for more than one minute. Resulting heat build-up will damage the pump.
NEVER
connect the washer to a hot water supply. Doing so will greatly reduce the life of the pump.
Release the trigger when changing from high to low pressure modes. Failure to do so can result in damage
to the machine. Be aware of the recoil caused by the water jet when the machine is turned on.
EXTENSION CORDS:
The use of an extension cord is not recommended. Use only extension cords
intended for outdoor use. These are identified by the following statement “Acceptable for use with outdoor
machines”. Use only extension cords having an electrical rating equal to more than the rating of the
machine.
DO NOT
use damaged extension cords.
Water that has gone through backflow preventers is considered to be non-potable water.
Due to the inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut-out, this appliance must not be supplied through an
external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by
the utility.
This machine is intended to be used at a temperature above 0 degrees. (Only for machines with the power
cord of H05VV-F)
Be careful of the danger of the kickback force on the spray assembly when opening the trigger gun and be
sure you have a firm grasp on the trigger.
Make sure the water inlet pressure keeps between 0.01MPa ad 0.4MPa. The inlet pipe should be at least
5M long.
DO NOT
use the pipe if it is damaged.
