SET-UP:
1. This unit should only be placed on a level surface to ensure proper lubrication
for the water pump while operating. NEVER spray water directly on the
unit.
2. Do not use unit in an area:
a. with insufficient ventilation.
b. where there is evidence of oil or fuel leaks.
c. where flammable gas vapors may be present.
3. Engage brake to prevent the unit from moving while operating.
4. Do not allow the unit to be exposed to rain, snow or freezing temperatures.
If any part of the unit becomes frozen, excessive pressure may build up in

the operator or bystanders.
5. Pump oil level should be checked before each use. Make certain the oil is
on the "Full" mark on the dipstick or in the center of the oil sight glass. If
the level appears to be low, fill with pump oil SAE20 or 30.
ATTIRE:
Proper attire is essential to your safety. It is advised to utilize whatever means
necessary to protect eyes, ears, and skin. Additional safety attire (such as
respiratory mask) may be required when using detergent cleaning agents with
this washer.
POWER CORD CONNECTION:
1. Make certain the motor switch is in the "OFF" position.
2. Ensure electrical supply is identical to the specifications listed on the pressure
washer data plate.
3. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS: This product must be grounded. If it should
malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
4. DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electrocution. Check with a qualified electrician or service
personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with the product - if it will not fit the outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Do not use any type
of adaptor with this product.
5. GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION:
a. SINGLE PHASE: If this pressure washer is provided with a Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug or the power supply
cord, test the GFCI each time it is plugged into an outlet according to
instructions on the GFCI. DO NOT use the pressure washer if the test
fails! The GFCI 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.
