Important Safety Instructions

DANGER: Carbon Monoxide. Using an engine indoors can kill

you in minutes. Engine exhaust contains high levels of carbon

monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see or smell. You

may be breathing CO even if you do not smell engine exhaust.

WARNING: This product and its exhaust contain chemicals

known to the State of California to cause cancer, and birth

defects and other reproductive harm.

 NEVER use an engine inside homes, garages, crawlspaces or

other partly enclosed areas. Deadly levels of carbon monoxide can

build up in these areas. Using a fan or opening windows and doors

does NOT supply enough fresh air.

 ONLY use outdoors and far away from open windows, doors and

vents. These openings can pull in engine exhaust.

Pressure Adjustments

The pressure setting is preset at the factory to achieve optimum pres-

sure and cleaning. To lower the pressure, follow these instructions.

1. Back away from the surface to be cleaned. The further away you

are, the less the pressure will be on the surface to be cleaned.

2. Change to the 40˚ nozzle (white). This nozzle delivers a less

powerful stream of water and a wider spray pattern. Refer to

Spray Wand Nozzles.

NOTICE: DO NOT attempt to increase pump pressure. A higher

pressure setting than the factory set pressure may damage pump.

3. Reduce the speed of the gasoline engine (RPM). Slow the engine

down and the water pressure will go down with it.

Spray Wand Nozzles (Fig. 1)

The nozzles for the spray wand are stored in the nozzle holder (B) on the
