Starting
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, read the pressure washer
instruction manual and the engine instruction manual before starting
pressure washer.
DANGER: Risk of fluid injection and laceration. When using the
high-pressure setting, DO NOT allow the high-pressure spray to
come in contact with unprotected skin, eyes, or with any pets or
animals. Serious injury will occur.
• Your washer operates at fluid pressures and velocities high
enough to penetrate human and animal flesh, which could result
in amputation or other serious injury. Leaks caused by loose fit-
tings or worn or damaged hoses can result in injection injuries.
DO NOT TREAT FLUID INJECTION AS A SIMPLE CUT! See a
physician immediately!
WARNING: Risk of fire, asphyxiation and burning. NEVER fill fuel
tank when engine is running or hot. Do not smoke when filling fuel
S
tank.
• NEvER fill fuel tank completely. Fill tank to 1/2" (12.7 mm) below
bottom of filler neck to provide space for fuel expansion. Wipe any
fuel spillage from engine and equipment before starting engine.
• NEvER run engine in doors or in en closed, poorly ven ti lat ed
areas. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless
and deadly gas.
• DO NOT let hoses come in contact with very hot engine
muffler during or immediately after use of your pressure
washer. Damage to hoses from contact with hot engine
surfaces will NOT be covered by warranty.
