attempting to lift too heavy an
object.
The powerful spray from your pressure washer is capable
of causing damage to surfaces such as wood, glass,
automobile paint, auto striping and trim, and delicate objects such as

assure yourself that it is strong enough to resist damage from the force of
the spray. Avoid the use of the concentrated spray stream except for very
strong surfaces like concrete and steel.

EXTENSION CORDS

Use additional length of high pressure hose instead of extension cords to avoid
voltage drop and power loss to the motor, and to prevent overheating. DO NOT
USE EXTENSION CORDS. NOTE: The use of additional length of high pressure
hose will lower the pressure washer's psi below 1600.

GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION

This pressure washer is provided with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
built into the plug of the power supply cord. This device provides additional
