5 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - Always keep the power supply cord behind the operator and away from the water jet. Don't let the power supply cord become entangled with obstacles or objects. ■ Operating the pressure washer with one hand is extremely dangerous. One-handed operation makes it difficult to oppose and absorb reactive forces (recoil) without losing control of the pressure washer.To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury to the operator or bystanders from loss of control: - Never attempt to operate the pressure washer with one hand. ■ Because of the high pressure and spray velocity, fluids can penetrate the skin and cause fluid injection and/or severe injury. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injuries to the operator or bystanders from loss of control, keep proper footing and balance at all times: - Take special care in overgrown or wet terrain and always watch for hidden obstacles such as tree stumps, roots, rocks, holes and ditches to avoid stumbling or falling. - Know where the power supply cord and water hoses are at all times to avoid tripping or stumbling. - Be extremely cautious when working on slopes or uneven ground. ■ To reduce the risk of injury from loss of control: - Never work on a ladder, roof, in a tree or while standing on any other insecure support. - Never operate the pressure washer above shoulder height. - Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
