HAZARD
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
HOW TO PREVENT IT
• Shut off engine and allow it to cool before
adding fuel to the tank.
• Use care in filling tank to avoid spilling fuel.
Move pressure washer away from fueling
area before starting engine.
• Spilled gasoline and it’s vapors can become
ignited from cigarette sparks, electrical arcing,
exhaust gases, and hot engine components
such as the muffler.
RISK OF EXPLOSION
OR FIRE
• Keep maximum fuel level ½” below top of
tank to allow for expansion.
• Operate and fuel equipment in well ventilated
areas free from obstructions. Equip areas
with fire extinguishers suitable for gasoline
fires.
• Heat will expand fuel in the tank which could
result in spillage and possible fire explosion.
• Operating the pressure washer in an explosive
environment could result in a fire.
• Never operate pressure washer in an area
containing dry brush or weeds.
• Materials placed against or near the pressure
washer can interfere with its proper ventilation
features causing overheating and possible igni-
tion of the materials.
• Always keep pressure washer a minimum of
four feet away from surfaces (such as hous-
es, automobiles, or live plants) that could be
damaged from muffler exhaust heat.
• Muffler exhaust heat can damage painted sur-
faces, melt any material sensitive to heat (such
as siding, plastic, rubber, or vinyl), and damage
live plants.
• Store fuel in an OSHA approved container, in
a secure location away from work area.
• Improperly stored fuel could lead to accidental
ignition. Fuel improperly secured could
get into the hands of children or other unquali-
fied persons.
• Use of acids, toxic or corrosive chemicals,
poisons, insecticides, or any kind of flammable
solvent with this product could result in serious

mended for high pressure washers. Follow
manufacturers recommendations.Do not use
chlorine bleach or any other corrosive
compound
• Some cleaning fluids contain substances which
could cause injury to skin, eyes, or lungs.
• High velocity fluid spray can cause objects to
break, propelling particles at high speed.
• Always wear ANSI approved Z87 safety
glasses. Wear protective clothing to
protect against accidental spraying.

• If pressure washer is equipped with a fuel
shut-off valve, turn the valve to the off position
before transporting to avoid fuel leaks. If pres-
sure washer is not equipped with a fuel shut-

RISK OF INJURY AND
PROPERTY DAMAGE
WHEN TRANSPORTING OR
STORING
The powerful spray from your pressure washer is capable of causing damage to surfaces such as
wood, glass, automobile paint, auto striping and trim, and delicate objects such as flowers and
shrubs. Before spraying, check the item to be cleaned to assure yourself that it is strong enough to resist damage from
the force of the spray. Avoid the use of the concentrated spray stream except for very strong surfaces like concrete and
steel.
Operating without flow of water will result in equipment damage. Operating the pressure washer with water supply
shutoff will void your warranty. You should never run this pressure washer for more than 2 minutes without pulling the
trigger to allow cool water to enter the pump and the heated (recirculated) water to exit.
