EXTENSION CORDS
When using a power tool at a considerable distance from
a power source, be sure to use an extension cord that has
the capacity to handle the current the product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, possibly
resulting in overheating, loss of power, and/or circuit
breaker or GFCI tripping. Use the chart to determine the
minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only round
jacketed cords listed by Underwriter's Laboratories (UL)
should be used.
When working outdoors with a product, use an extension
cord that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is
designated with "WA" or "W" on the cord's jacket.
Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or
exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.
It is possible to tie the extension cord and power cord in a
knot to prevent them from becoming disconnected during
use. Make a knot, then connect the plug end of the power
cord into the receptacle end of the extension cord. This
method can also be used to tie two extension cords together.
NOTE: This pressure washer is not recommended for
use with an extension cord. If using an extension cord,
arrange a drip loop to avoid the possibility of the tool
plug getting wet (see page 2).

NOTE: A.W.G. = American Wire Gauge
WARNING:
Keep the extension cord clear of the working area.
Position the cord so that it will not get caught on
lumber, tools, or other obstructions while you are working
with a power tool. Failure to do so can result in serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
Check extension cords before each use. If damaged
replace immediately. Never use the product with a
damaged cord since touching the damaged area could
cause electrical shock resulting in serious injury.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

This product has a precision-built electric motor. It should be
connected to a power supply that is nominal 120V/60Hz
AC (typical U.S. household circuit). Do not operate this
product on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop
will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If
the product does not operate when plugged into an outlet,
double-check the power supply.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction
or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This product is equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet,
have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING:
Improper installation of a grounded plug increase the
risk of electric shock. When repair or replacement of the
cord or plug is required, take the tool to an authorized
service center.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 V circuit and has a
grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated in figure 2. Only
connect the product to an outlet having the same configura-
tion as the plug. Do not use an adapter with this product.

GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER

See Figure 2.
This unit is equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI), which guards against the hazards of ground fault
currents. An example of ground fault current is the current
that would flow through a person who is using an appliance
with faulty insulation and, at the same time, is in contact
with an electrical ground such as a plumbing fixture, wet
floor, or earth.
GFCI plugs do not protect against short circuits, overloads,
or shocks.
NOTE: To ensure readiness for use, press the reset button
each time you connect the pressure washer to the power
supply.
The GFCI plug can be tested with the TEST and RESET
buttons.
To test:
 Press the TEST button. You will hear a "click" sound and
the LED light will go out.
 To restore power, press the RESET button. The LED light
will illuminate to indicate power has been restored.
Perform this test monthly to ensure proper operation of the
GFCI.
 To reduce the risk of electric shock the supervi-
sory circuit must be operated before an appliance is
plugged into any receptacle on the device.
