HAZARD  
RISK TO FLUID  
INJECTION  
WHAT CAN HAPPEN  
HOW TO PREVENT IT  
Your washer operates at fluid pressures  
and velocities high enough to penetrate  
human and animal flesh, which could  
result in amputation or other serious injury.  
Leaks caused by loose fittings or worn or  
damaged hoses can result in injection  
injuries. DO NOT TREAT FLUID  
• Never place hands in front of nozzle.  
• Direct spray away from self and others.  
• Make sure hose and fittings are tightened  
and in good condition. Never hold onto the  
hose or fittings during operation.  
• Do not allow hose to contact muffler.  
• Never attach or remove wand or hose  
fittings while system is pressurized.  
INJECTION AS A SIMPLE CUT! See a  
physician immediately!  
• Injuries can result if system pressure is not  
reduced before attempting maintenance or  
disassembly.  
To relieve system pressure, shut off engine,  
turn off water supply, and pull gun trigger  
until water stops flowing.  
• Use only hoses and accessories rated for  
pressure higher than your pressure  
washer's PSI.

PRESSURE WASHER  
TERMINOLOGY  
PSI: Pounds per Square Inch. The unit  
of measure for water pressure. Also  
used for air pressure, hydraulic  
pressure, etc.  
PRESSURE WASHER  
OPERATING FEATURES  
PRESSURE ADJUSTMENTS  
The pressure setting is preset at the  
factory to achieve optimum pressure  
and cleaning. If you need to lower the  
pressure, it can be accomplished by  
these methods.  
GPM: Gallons Per Minute. The unit of  
measure for the flow rate of water.  
CU: Cleaning Units. GPM multiplied by  
1. Back away from the surface to  
be cleaned. The further away you  
are, the less the pressure will be  
on the surface to be cleaned.  
2. Change to the 40º (white)  
nozzle - this nozzle delivers a less  
powerful stream of water and a  
wider spray pattern.  
PSI. GPM x PSI = CU  
Water Supply: All pressure washers  
must have a source of water. The  
minimum requirements for a water  
supply are 20 PSI and 5 gallons per  
minute.  
Bypass Mode: Allows water to  
re-circulate within pump when the gun  
trigger is not pulled.  
DO NOT attempt to  
increase pump  
pressure. A higher pressure setting  
than the factory set pressure may  
damage pump.  
Allowing the unit to  
run for more than  
two minutes without the gun trigger  
pulled could cause overheating and  
damage to the pump.

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS BEFORE STARTING UNIT  
When using the high pressure setting, DO NOT allow the  
high pressure spray to come in contact with unprotected skin,  
eyes, or with any pets or animals. Serious injury can occur.  
Your washer operates at fluid pressures and velocities high enough to penetrate  
human and animal flesh, which could result in amputation or other serious injury.  
Leaks caused by loose fittings or worn or damaged hoses can result in injection  
injuries. DO NOT TREAT FLUID INJECTION AS A SIMPLE CUT! See a  
physician immediately!  
NEVER fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do not  
smoke when filling fuel tank.  
NEVER fill fuel tank completely. Fill tank to 1/2" below bottom of filler neck to  
provide space for fuel expansion. Wipe any fuel spillage from engine and  
equipment before starting engine.  
NEVER run engine indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas. Engine  
exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly gas.  
DO NOT let hoses come in contact with very hot engine muffler during or  
immediately after use of your pressure washer. Damage to hoses from contact  
with hot engine surfaces will NOT be covered by warranty.  
NEVER pull water supply hose to move pressure washer. This  
could damage hose and/or pump inlet.  
DO NOT use hot water, use cold water only.  
NEVER turn water supply off while pressure washer engine is running or  
damage to pump will result.  
DO NOT stop spraying water for more than two minutes at a time. Pump  
operates in bypass mode when spray gun trigger is not pressed. If pump is left  
in bypass mode for more than two minutes internal components of the pump  
can be damaged.
