GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. If it
should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resi-
stance for electric current to reduce the
risk of electric shock. This product is
equipped with a cord having an equip-
ment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plug-
ged into an appropriate outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in ac-
cordance with all local codes and ordi-
nances.
DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electrocution. Check with a qualified
electrician or service personnel if you
are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with the product - if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet in-
stalled by a qualified electrician. Do not
use any type of adapter with this pro-
duct.
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT
INTERRUPTER PROTECTION
This product is provided with a ground-
fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) built into
the plug of the power-supply cord. This
device provides additional protection
from the risk of electric shock.
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com
Should replacement of the plug or cord
become necessary, use only identical
replacement parts that include GFCI
protection.

WATER SUPPLY
(Cold Water Only)
CAUTION
When connecting the water inlet to the
water supply mains, local regulations of
your water company must be observed.
In some areas the unit must not be con-
nected directly to the public drinking
water supply. This is to ensure that
there is no feedback of chemicals into
the water supply. Direct connection via
a receiver tank or backflow preventer,
for example, is permitted.
Dirt in the feed water will damage the
unit. To avoid this risk, we recommend
fitting a water filter.
Garden hose must be at least 5/8
inch in diameter.
Flow rate of water supply must not
fall below 2 GPM (gallons per
minute).
Flow rate can be determined by run-
ning the water for one minute into an
empty 5-gallon container.
The water supply temperature must
not exceed 104°F/40°C.
Never use the pressure washer to
draw in water contaminated with sol-
vents, e.g. paint thinners, gasoline,
oil, etc.
Always prevent debris from being
drawn into the unit by using a clean
water source.
