WARNING
Starter cord kickback (rapid retraction) can
result in bodily injury. Kickback will pull
hand and arm toward engine faster than
you can let go.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises, or sprains
could result.
• NEVER pull starter cord without first relieving spray gun
pressure.
• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is
felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.
• After each starting attempt, where engine fails to run,
always point gun in safe direction and squeeze spray
gun trigger to release high pressure. Engage spray gun
trigger lock.
• Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high
pressure spray to avoid injury when gun kicks back.
WARNING
Contact with muffler area can result in
serious burns.
Exhaust heat / gases can ignite
combustibles, structures or damage fuel
tank causing a fire.
• DO NOT touch hot parts and AVOID hot exhaust gases.
• Allow equipment to cool before touching.
• Keep at least 5 feet (152 cm) of clearance on all sides of
pressure washer including overhead.
• Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) Title 36 Parks,
Forests, and Public Property require equipment powered
by an internal combustion engine to have a spark
arrester, maintained in effective working order,

WARNING
The high pressure stream of water that this
equipment produces can cut through skin

injury and possible amputation.
Spray gun traps high water pressure, even
when engine is stopped and water is
disconnected, which can cause injury.
• DO NOT allow CHILDREN to operate pressure washer.
• NEVER repair high pressure hose. Replace it.
• NEVER repair leaking connections with sealant of any
kind. Replace o-ring or seal.
• NEVER connect high pressure hose to nozzle extension.
• Keep high pressure hose connected to pump and spray
gun while system is pressurized.

gun trigger, to release high pressure, every time you stop
engine. Engage trigger lock when not in use.

running.
• NEVER use a spray gun which does not have a trigger
lock or trigger guard in place and in working order.

Unintentional sparking can result in fire or
electric shock.
