Starting Warning: To reduce the risk of injury, read the pressure washer instruction manual and the engine instruction manual before starting pressure washer. DANGER: Risk of fluid injection and laceration. 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 will 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! DANGER: Carbon Monoxide. Using an engine indoors can kill you in minutes. Engine exhaust contains high levels of carbon monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see or smell. You may be breathing CO even if you do not smell engine exhaust. • Breathing ex­haust fumes will cause se­ri­ous injury or death! En­gine exhaust con­tains carbon mon­ox­ide, an odorless and deadly gas. • Operate pressure washer in a well-ventilated area. Avoid en­closed areas such as ga­rag­es, base­ments, etc. • Never op­er­ate unit in or near a lo­ca­tion occupied by humans or animals. WARNING: Risk of fire, asphyxiation and burning. 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" (12.7 mm) below bottom of filler neck to provide space for fuel expansion. Wipe any fuel spillage from engine and equipment before starting engine. 13
