Positioning :
1. The pressure washer should be positioned
on a firm, level (less than 3 degree slope),
heat-resistant surface with good drainage
and a nearby water supply.
2. The pressure washer should be placed
within garden hose distance of a continuous
water supply. Ensure that the pressure
washer sits level and will not slide or shift
during operation. If applicable, block the
pressure washer's wheels to prevent
movement.
3. Situate so there is adequate pulling room for
starting the engine using the recoil starter.
Attempting to pull at an odd angle could rip
off grip cord and/or cause muscular injuries
to the operator.
Airflow :
1. Situate so there is adequate clearance
around pressure washer to allow for airflow –
at least 7 feet from any non-combustible wall
or obstruction.
2. Do not operate with a tarp, blanket, or cover
surrounding the machine.
3. Do not place any objects against or on top of
the unit.
4. The pressure washer needs adequate,
unobstructed flow of air to allow for proper
combustion and adequate cooling.
Proper
combustion can only be obtained when there
is a sufficient supply of oxygen available for
the amount of fuel being burned. Cooling
ventilation is required to prevent overheating
of the pressure washer and possible fire.
Exhaust
:
WARNING: Exhaust Modification hazard
Never attempt to attach ductwork to the muffler
system to allow for installation inside an enclosure.
This could cause heat build-up and increased exhaust
back-pressure, resulting in possible exhaust leakage
or damage to the pressure washer.
1. The exhaust gas from your pressure washer
is extremely hot and can cause combustible
materials to catch on fire.
2. Make sure the engine is at least 7 feet from
all combustible materials and
buildings/structures during operation.
3. Keep a fire extinguisher rated "ABC" nearby.
Keep it properly charged and be familiar with
its use.
4. Place the unit so that the exhaust fumes will
not be directed towards people or building air
intakes.
DANGER: Carbon monoxide hazard
Exhaust fumes from the engine contain carbon
monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see,
smell, or taste. The CO generated by the engine can
rapidly accumulate, even in areas that appear to be well
ventilated, resulting in dangerous and fatal
concentrations within minutes. NEVER run pressure
washer inside any enclosed or semi-enclosed spaces,
including homes, garages, basements, sheds, boxes,
pick-up truck beds, RVs, or boats. These spaces can
trap poisonous gases, EVEN if you run a fan or open
windows. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while
using the pressure washer, shut off the engine and get
to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have
carbon monoxide poisoning.
Install Spark Arrestor (if Required)
Equip engine with spark arrestor if machine will be
used near any ignitable forest, brush, or grassy
land. Make sure you comply with applicable local,
state, and federal codes.
