WARNINg: To reduce the risk of injury, read this operator’s
manual completely. When using this product, the following
basic precautions should always be followed:
. Read all the instructions before using the product.
. This product is equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI) in the power cord to reduce the risk of electrical shock.
If replacement of the plug or cord is needed, use only identical
replacement parts.
. Follow the grounding instructions included in this manual.
4. High pressure water spray can cut skin. Do not direct spray
at persons. Keep operating area clear of all persons or pets.
Warn children that the water spray can cut. Supervise children
closely.
5. Do not allow children or untrained person to operate the
washer.
6. Do not spray electrical switches, receptacles or light bulbs, or
glass or fragile objects that may shatter.
. Dirt and debris removed by spray can cause eye injury. Wear
eye protection.
8. NEVER squeeze the trigger unless securely braced. The thrust
from the water traveling through the nozzle may be powerful
enough to cause the operator to lose balance if unprepared.
Wet surfaces can be slippery. Wear shoes and keep both feet
on the ground. Do not climb on items being cleaned. Do not
overreach or stand on unstable support. Keep good footing
and balance at all times. NEVER trigger the gun while on a
ladder or roof.
9. When the spray trigger is released, water pressure is trapped
in the discharge hose. Release trapped pressure by triggering
the spray gun after the washer is turned off.
0. Do not operate the washer when fatigued or under the
influence of drugs or chemicals. Stay alert. Watch what you
are doing.
11. Follow the maintenance instruction specified in this manual.
12. ALWAYS hold on firmly to the gun/wand assembly when
starting and operating the unit. Failure to do so can cause
the wand to fall and whip dangerously. NEVER operate the
gun with the trigger wired in the open position. To prevent
accidental discharge, the trigger gun should be securely locked
when not in use.
