• High velocity fluidspray can cause

, Ught 0r Unsecured objects can become
hazardous projectile6.

The powerful spray from your pressure washer is capable of causing
damage to surfaces such as wood, glass, automobile paint, auto
stripping 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.
