ELECTRICAL SAFETY WARNINGS
• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to
be used for the product.
• Disconnect from the electrical power supply before carrying out user maintenance.
• Use only extension cords that have watertight connections and are intended for outdoor use. Use only
extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of the product. Examine extension cord
before using and replace if damaged. Do not abuse extension cord and do not pull on any cord to
disconnect. Keep cord away from heat and sharp edges. Always disconnect the extension cord from the
receptacle before disconnecting the product from the extension cord.
• Do not use the appliance if a supply cord or important parts of the appliance are damaged, e.g. safety
devices, high pressure hoses, trigger gun.
• Inadequate extension cords can be dangerous.
• To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all connections dry and off the ground. Do not touch plug with
wet hands.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the product or to disconnect the plug from an outlet.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately.
Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil
or grease.
EXTENSION CORD SAFETY WARNINGS
When using a power tool at a considerable distance from a power source, be sure to use an extension cord
that has the capacity to handle the current the product will draw.
• An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, possibly resulting in overheating, loss of power,
and/or circuit breaker or GFCI tripping. Use the chart to determine the minimum wire size required in an
extension cord.
Cord Length

• When working outdoors with a product, use an extension cord that is designed for outside use. This type
of cord is designated with "WA" or "W" on the cord's jacket.
• Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.
• It is possible to tie the extension cord and power cord in a knot to prevent them from becoming
disconnected during use. Make a knot, then connect the plug end of the power cord into the receptacle
end of the extension cord. This method can also be used to tie two extension cords together.
• This product has a precision-built electric motor. It should be connected to a power supply that is 120
volts, AC only (normal household current), 60 Hz.
• Do not operate this product on direct current (DC).
• A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat.
• If the product does not operate when plugged into an outlet, doublecheck the power supply.
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION
This pressure washer is provided with a ground-fault circuitinterrupter (GFCI) built into the plug of the
power-supply cord. This device provides additional protection from the risk of electric shock. Should
replacement of the plug or cord become necessary, use only identical replacement parts that
include GFCI protection.
