FUEL SAFETY
DANGER
line is highly explosive and flammable and can cause
severe burns or death.
l In case of a gas fire, do not attempt to extinguish the flame
if the fuel tank valve is in the ON position. Introducing
an extinguisher to a pressure washer with an open fuel
valve could create an explosion hazard.
l Gas has a distinctive odor, this will help detect potential
leaks quickly.
l Gas vapors can cause a fire if ignited.
l Gasoline is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned up
immediately if it comes in contact with the skin.
l Gasoline and gasoline vapors are extremely flammable
and explosive under certain conditions.
l ALWAYS refuel the pressure washer outdoors, in a
well-ventilated area.
l NEVER remove the fuel cap with the engine running.
l NEVER refuel the pressure washer while the engine is
running. Always turn the engine off and allow the pressure
washer to cool for at least two minutes before refueling.
l Only fill fuel tank with gasoline.
l Keep sparks, open flames or other form of ignition (such
as match, cigarette, static electric source) away when
refueling.
l NEVER overfill the fuel tank. Leave room for fuel to
expand. Overfilling the fuel tank can result in a sudden
overflow of gasoline and result in spilled gasoline coming
in contact with HOT surfaces.
l Spilled fuel can ignite. If fuel is spilled on the pressure
washer, wipe up any spills immediately. Dispose of rag
properly. Allow area of spilled fuel to dry before operating
the pressure washer.

tilated area, away from any combustibles or source of
ignition.

l Shut down the engine and allow it to cool for two minutes
before adding gasoline or oil to the pressure washer.
l Wipe spilled fuel from the unit.
l Never attempt to burn off spilled fuel.
l Store any containers containing gasoline in a well-ven-
tilated area, away from any combustibles or source of

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
l Do not operate when you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
l Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side
shields, and as necessary a full face shield as well as
full ear protection when operating this product.
l If you begin to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using the
pressure washer, move to fresh air IMMEDIATELY. See
a doctor, as you can have carbon monoxide poisoning.
l Only use OUTSIDE and far away from windows, doors,
and vents as recommended by the US Department of
Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention. Your specific home and/or wind conditions
may require additional distance.
l While operating and storing, keep at least five feet of
clearance on all sides of pressure washer, including
overhead. Allow the pressure washer to cool a minimum
of 30 minutes before storage. Heat created by the muffler
and exhaust gases could be hot enough to cause serious
burns and/or ignite combustible objects.
l Do not touch the muffler or engine. They are very HOT
and will cause severe burns. Do not put body parts or
any flammable or combustible materials in the direct path
of the exhaust.
l Always remove any tools or other service equipment used
during maintenance away from the unit before operating.
l Avoid skin contact with engine oil or gasoline. Wear
protective clothing and equipment. Wash all exposed
skin with soap and water.
