SAFETY
Motors are air cooled. It is important to ensure that machine is operated in a well-
ventilated area where it can draw a steady supply of fresh air. The arrows below show
an example of locations for air intake on an engine.
Pumps are water cooled. When the machine is running, ensure the trigger of the gun
is pressed to allow a constant ow of fresh water into and out of the pump. Do not let
the machine run for more than 30 seconds without pressing down on the trigger.

triplex pump
Most pumps are protected by a thermal valve. The thermal valve releases water if a
pump starts to run too hot. It will prevent catastrophic heat failure. However, the pump
may have suffered damage and need maintenance, repair, or replacement. If it does not
reset and continues to leak water, the thermal valve may need to be replaced.

• Fill or drain fuel tank outdoors.
• DO NOT overll tank. Always allow space for fuel expansion.
• If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting engine.
• Keep fuel away from sparks, open ames, pilot lights, heat, and other ignition
sources.
• DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.
When Starting Equipment
• Ensure spark plug, mufer, fuel cap, and air cleaner are in place.
• DO NOT crank engine with spark plug removed.
When Operating Equipment
• DO NOT tip engine or equipment at angle which causes fuel to spill.
• DO NOT spray ammable liquids.
When Transporting or Repairing Equipment

WARNING
Starter cord kickback (rapid retraction) can result in bodily injury.
Kickback will pull hand and arm toward engine faster than you can
let go.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises, or sprains could result.
• NEVER pull starter cord without rst relieving spray gun pressure.
• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly
to avoid kickback.
• After each starting attempt, where engine fails to run, always point spray gun in
safe direction and squeeze spray gun trigger to release pressure.
• Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high pressure spray to avoid
injury when spray gun kicks back.
WARNING
A running engine gives off carbon monoxide, an odorless, colorless,
poison gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause headache, fatigue, dizzi-
ness, vomiting, confusion, seizures, nausea, fainting or death.
Some chemicals or detergents may be harmful if inhaled or ingest-
ed, causing severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
• Operate pressure washer ONLY outdoors.
• Keep exhaust gas from entering a conned area through windows, doors, ventila-
tion intakes, or other openings.
• DO NOT start or run engine indoors or in an enclosed area, even if windows and
doors are open.
• Use a respirator or mask whenever there is a chance that vapors may be inhaled.
• Read all instructions with mask so you are certain the mask will provide the neces-
sary protection against harmful vapors.
