SAFETY
WARNING
A running engine gives off carbon monoxide, an odorless,
colorless, poison gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause headache, fatigue,
dizziness, vomiting, confusion, seizures, nausea, fainting or
death.
Some chemicals or detergents may be harmful if inhaled or
ingested, causing severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
• Operate pressure washer ONLY outdoors.
• Keep exhaust gas from entering a confined area through windows, doors,
ventilation intakes, or other openings.
• DO NOT start or run engine indoors or in an enclosed area, even if win-
dows and doors are open.
• Use a respirator or mask whenever there is a chance that vapors may be
inhaled.
• Read all instructions with mask so you are certain the mask will provide
the necessary protection against harmful vapors.
WARNING
Starter cord kickback (rapid retraction) can result in bodily
injury. Kickback will pull hand and arm toward engine faster
than you can let go.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises, or sprains could result.
• NEVER pull starter cord without first relieving spray gun pressure.
• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and then pull
rapidly to avoid kickback.
• After each starting attempt, where engine fails to run, always point spray
gun in safe direction and squeeze spray gun trigger to release pressure.
• Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high pressure spray
to avoid injury when spray gun kicks back.
WARNING
Risk of electrocution.
Contact with power source can cause electric shock
or burn.
