WARNING: When the machine is used, the following precautions should always be
considered:
01. Keep operating area clear of persons.
02. Follow the maintenance instructions as specified in the manual.
03. To avoid personal injury and/or damage to property and to maximize your power washer experience,
carefully follow all of the safety tips, instructions, warnings and safeguards and become familiar
with all of the controls. Be sure you know how to quickly bleed off the pressure from all parts of your
power washer and how to turn off the power washer.
04. This power washer conforms to CSA and other safety and consumer standards. Do not modify or
rebuild any part of your power washer.
05. Do not use your power washer when you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Use this power
washer carefully and only when you are alert.
06. Watch your balance and footing while using your power washer. Surfaces become slippery when
wet and are extra slippery when using a detergent or cleaner. Do not overreach or stand on unstable
ground.
07. When using the power washer near children, make sure they are closely supervised by an adult to
avoid injury. Never let a child use the power washer.
08. Keep fingers, hands, feet and any part of your body clear of the stream of high pressure water. The
powerful spray can cause blindness or blast holes in the skin. It can break a window if you are too
close when you pull the trigger on the spray gun.
09. Always wear eye protection to prevent injury to eyes when operating the power washer.
10. To avoid mishaps or injury, ALWAYS use the trigger safety lock when not using the power washer
even if only stopping briefly.
11. Point the spray gun in a safe direction when beginning a power washer session.
12. Warning - NEVER spray directly at a person, animal, electrical device or the unit itself.
13. When first using the power washer, hold it with two hands when pulling the trigger (one hand to pull
the trigger and the other to stabilize the assembly) until you get used to the "kickback" from the
power washer.
14. When you press the power switch to turn off the power washer, water pressure may remain in the
system. To discharge the pressure, point the power washer in a safe direction and pull the trigger.
15. Never spray flammable liquids.
16. Never use the power washer in areas that contain combustible dust, liquids or vapours.
17. Only use detergent specifically formulated for power washers and follow instructions on the
detergent's label. Dish or laundry soap is too thick and will clog the nozzle of your foam cannon.
18. Protect eyes, lungs, and skin from exposure to detergent.
19. Warning - If connection is made to a portable water system, the system should be protected against
back-flow. Store the power washer indoors to prevent the water in the unit from expanding under
