SECTION 1
GENERAL INFORMATION
This manual is provided for you so that your
pressure washer may be properly, safely and
effectively applied and operated. Please read and
understand all aspects of this manual before
operating your pressure washer. Please also read
and understand the documentation supplied with
this pressure washer regarding the engine and
pump. Keep this documentation in a safe and
accessible place so that reference can be made as
needed. All operators, users and subsequent
owners of this pressure washer must read and
understand all aspects of this documentation before
operation. Please make note that your pressure
washer is equipped with a thermal relief valve. If
water begins to spray from your pump during
operation it is likely because water temperature
has exceeded 140°F. This usually occurs if the
machine is left running during periods(usually 5
minutes or more) of non-use. This is a safeguard
against damage which can occur with high water
temperatures. It is recommended that the engine be
shut down if the pressure washer will not be used
for extended periods.
SPARK ARRESTING MUFFLER
Certain States and Jurisdictions require that engine
driven equipment be fitted with spark arresting mufflers.
Depending on the model, spark arresting mufflers may
or may not be fitted. If spark arresting mufflers are
required for your specific location and the pressure
washer muffler is not spark arresting, contact your local
dealer for instructions for a retrofit.
EXHAUST EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
The exhaust emission control system for this pressure
washer complies to the standards set forth by the
California Air Resources Board (CARB) and the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Warranties for
the exhaust emission system are administered by the
respective engine manufacturers. Refer to the engine
documentation for warranty information.
WARNING
The engine exhaust from this product contains
chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

DANGER: PARTS OF THIS PRESSURE WASHER
SUCH AS THE ENGINE, MUFFLER, AND PUMP CAN
BECOME VERY HOT DURING OPERATION.

SAFETY RULES
DANGER: This equipment produces a very high
pressure stream of water which can penetrate
the skin and cause serious injury. Under no
circumstance should the spray gun be aimed at people,
animals or any delicate items which might be damaged.
DANGER: Users of this machine should always
dress properly before using. Safety glasses,
shoes, long pants, shirt, and ear protection are

of protective clothing.
DANGER: When using chemicals in conjunction
with this machine you should always wear gloves,
eye protection and clothing which leaves no
exposed skin.
DANGER: Never point the output water stream
at electrical wiring or devices. This can lead to
damaged components, personal injury or even

settings are made to produce the designed
pressure and flow rate for your equipment. Any
misapplication can lead to damaged components or even
bodily injury.
