5 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - Keep hands, feet and other parts of your body away from the water jet at all times. - Do not direct the high-pressure jet into places you cannot see. - Switch off the pressure washer, relieve system pressure and lock the spray gun trigger before changing or adjusting any spray nozzle or accessory. - If an accident does occur and the spray appears to have penetrated the skin, seek emergency medical care. Do not treat as a simple cut. ■ To reduce the risk of property damage or serious personal injury: - Start work at the greatest effective distance from the surface being cleaned. Do not move so close that the surface is damaged by the force of the spray. - Be especially careful when spraying softer materials such as fabric. - Use caution when directing spray toward fragile materials such as glass. It could shatter. ■ This pressure washer was designed for use with water alone or with a detergent specifically designed and approved for use with pressure washers. Use of English unsuitable detergents or cleaning agents can cause personal injury and damage the pressure washer and/or the surface being cleaned. - Always use the detergent in the dosage specified in the detergent manufacturer's instructions for proper preparation and dilution, as well as safe use and disposal. ■ Chemical detergents may contain harmful (toxic, caustic, irritant), flammable or explosive substances. They are potentially harmful and can cause skin and eye irritation, chemical burns and other serious personal injury. - Avoid contact with skin and eyes. - In the event of accidental contact, immediately rinse the contact area thoroughly with plenty of clean water. - If fluid gets into your eye(s): Do not rub. Rinse water over the open eye(s) for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention. ■ Running the pressure washer without water will cause the pump to overheat, which may result in permanent damage. - Always connect and turn on the water supply to the pump before starting the motor. - Do not operate the pressure washer without water. WARNING ■ To reduce the risk of short-circuiting, fire and electrocution: - Never direct the high-pressure jet toward the pressure washer itself or any of its components. - Never direct the spray at electrical appliances and equipment, sockets or power cords. 0458-620-8621-A 15
