Extension cords are not recommended unless
they are plugged into a ground fault
circuit-interrupter found in circuit boxes or
protected receptacles.
Warning
The pressure washer is also equipped with a
main power “ON/OFF” switch located on the
unit. It should always be moved to the “OFF”
position when the pressure washer is not
being used to prevent possible injury or
damage.
Warning
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter:
This pressure washer has a ground-fault
circuit-interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug of the

protection from the risk of shock. Should replacement
of the plug or cord become necessary, use only
identical replacement parts that include GFCI
protection.
The pressure washer is equipped with a stop
device that will sense when the trigger on the gun
is released. It will open the power circuit to the motor
and cause the pressure washer motor to stop. Motor
will resume again when trigger is pulled.
