WARNING!
SERVICING OF A DOUBLE-
INSULATED MACHINE
In a double-insulated machine, two systems
of insulation are provided instead of
grounding. No grounding means are
provided for a double-insulated machine,
nor should grounding means be added to
the machine. Servicing a double-insulated
machine requires extreme care and
knowledge of the system, and should be
done only by qualified service personnel.
Replacement pars for a double-insulated
machine must be identical to the original
parts. A double-insulated machine is
marked with the words “Double Insulation
"or “Double Insulated.” Machine may also
be marked with symbol shown in Figure 1.
WARNING!Do not use pressure
that exceeds the operating
pressure of any of the parts (hoses,
fittings, etc.) in the pressurized
system. Ensure all equipments and
accessories are rated to withstand
the maximum working pressure of
the unit.
WARNING!Explosion hazard.
Never spray flammable liquids or use
pressure washer in areas containing
combustible dust, liquids or vapors.
Never operate the machine in a closed
building or in or near an explosive
environment.
WARNING!Do not spray electrical
apparatus and wiring.
•Never disconnect the high pressure
discharge hose from the machine while the
system is pressurized. To depressurize
machine, turn power and water supply off,
then press gun trigger 2~3 times.
•Never permanently engage the trigger
mechanism on the gun.
•Never operate the machine without all
components properly connected to the
3

machine (handle, gun/wand assembly,
nozzle, etc.).
WARNING!Equipment damage.
•ALWAYS turn water supply “ON” before
turning pressure washer “ON.” Running
pump dry causes serious damage.
•Do not operate the pressure washer with
the inlet water screen removed. Keep
screen clear of debris and sediment.
•NEVER operate pressure washer with
broken or missing parts. Check equipment
regularly and repair or replace worn or
damaged parts immediately.
•Use only the nozzle supplied with this
machine.
•Never leave the wand unattended while
the machine is running.
•Never attempt to alter factory settings.
Altering factory settings could damage the
unit and will void the warranty.
•Always hold gun and wand firmly when
starting and operating the machine.
•NEVER allow the unit to run with the
trigger released (off) for more than one (1)
minute. Resulting heat buildup will damage
pump.
•Pressure washer is not supposed to pump
hot water. NEVER connect it to a hot water
supply as it will significantly reduce the life
of the pump.
•NEVER store the pressure washer
outdoors or where it could freeze. The
pump will be seriously damaged.
•Release trigger when changing from high
to low pressure modes. Failure to do so
could result in damage.
•Be aware of the recoil caused by the
water jet when the machine is switched on.
CAUTION: Keep hose away from
sharp objects. Bursting hoses may
cause injury. Examine hose
regularly and replace it if damaged.
Do not attempt to mend a damaged
hose.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of an extension cord is not
recommended. Use only extension cords
intended for outdoor use. These are
identified by the mark “Acceptable for
use with outdoor machines; store indoors
while not in use.” Use only extension cords
having an electrical rating equal to or more
than the rating of the machine. Do not use
damaged extension cords. Examine
extension cord before using and replace it if
damaged. Do not abuse extension cord. Do
not pull on the cord to disconnect. Keep
cord away from heat and sharp edges.
Always disconnect cord from receptacle
before disconnecting machine from
extension cord.
