Personal safety

Stay alert, watch what you are do-

1.

ing and use common sense when

operating a pressure washer. Do not

use a pressure washer while you are

tired or under the influence of drugs,

alcohol or medication. A moment of

inattention while operating pressure

washers may result in serious per-

sonal injury.
Use personal protective equipment.

2.

Always wear eye protection and thick

rubber boots. Safety equipment such

as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,

hard hat, or hearing protection used

for appropriate conditions will reduce

personal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure

3.

the switch is in the off-position before

connecting to power source and/

or battery pack, picking up or carry-

ing the equipment. Carrying pres-

sure washers with your finger on the

switch or energizing pressure wash-

ers that have the switch on invites

accidents.
Do not overreach. Keep proper foot-

4.

ing and balance at all times. This

enables better control of the pressure

washer in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose

5.

clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair,

clothing and gloves away from mov-

ing parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or

long hair can be caught in moving

parts.
Only use safety equipment that has

6.

been approved by an appropriate

standards agency. Unapproved

safety equipment may not provide

adequate protection. Eye protection

must be ANSI-approved for the spe-

cific hazards in the work area.
