· Replace oil fill cap after any additions.
Spray System
Because of the high-pressure fluid hazards, a special check must be made
before each use to look for signs of wear, cracks, looseness or leaks in the
hoses, fittings, wand, trigger gun and connections. See special instructions
for checking and repairing high-pressure hoses within the “Maintenance &
Repair” section.
· Check and clean nozzle orifice. · Clean garden hose water inlet filter. (See
Maintenance instructions.)
WARNING: High pressure fluid injection hazard
High-pressure fluid discharge from leaks (even pinsized) or ruptured
components can pierce skin and inject fluid into the body. Injection injury
can result in blood poisoning and/or severe tissue damage leading to
infection, gangrene, and possibly amputation.
WARNING: Respond to fluid injection immediately
If injured by high-pressure fluid, no matter how small the wound is, see a
doctor at once. A typical injection injury may be a small puncture wound that
does not look serious. However, severe infection or reaction can result if
proper medical treatment is not administered immediately by a doctor who is
familiar with injection injuries.
· Never use a finger or skin to check for leaks. · Never operate machine with
damaged or missing
hoses/parts. · Never attempt to repair a high-pressure hose or
component always replace it with part that is rated at or above the pressure
rating of this machine.
Burner Fuel System (if heated water to be used)
Inspect Burner fuel system for leaks BEFORE starting pressure washer. Look
for:
· Signs of leaks, wetted areas, or deterioration · Chafed or spongy fuel hose
· Loose connections · Loose or missing fuel hose clamps · Damaged fuel tank
WARNING: Fuel leak hazard
Burner fuels are highly flammable and fuel leaks can result in fire or
explosions. You can be burned and seriously injured if there is a fuel leak
when you start the pressure washer.
Periodic Maintenance
Other periodic maintenance is listed within the “Maintenance & Repair”
section.
Note: Do not start pressure washer until all needed repairs have been
completed.
Step 2. Check and Fill Burner Fuel Tank
If you are planning to use heated water, check level of burner fuel tank. If
fuel is needed, use #1 or #2 diesel, B5 or lower biodiesel, kerosene or fuel
oil. Use these precautions each time you fill:
1. Regularly inspect fuel systems for leaks. 2. Fill fuel tank OUTDOORS-
never indoors, and
stay away from all sources of heat, sparks and flames. 3. Use an UL approved

After Machine Has Cooled: 1. Remove burner fuel cap. 2. Add fuel through the
fill opening. Do not overfill. Allow at least 1/2″ of empty space below fill
neck to allow for fuel expansion. 3. Replace fuel cap securely before starting
burner. 4. Clean up fuel spills/splashes immediately. · If possible, move the
machine away from spilled fuel on the ground. · Wipe up spilled fuel and wait
5 minutes for excess fuel to evaporate before starting burner. · Fuel soaked
rags are flammable and should be disposed of properly. · If fuel is spilled on
your skin or clothes, change clothes and wash skin immediately. 5. Store extra
fuel in a cool, dry place in an ULapproved, tightly sealed container.
Step 3. Select Suitable Worksite Guidelines
WARNING: Location hazard
You must choose a suitable site for operating your pressure washer to avoid
equipment damage and/or injury and possible death from carbon monoxide
poisoning, fire/explosion, uncontrolled equipment movement/tip over, or slips
and falls. While designed primarily for outdoor usage, this electric powered
pressure washer may be used inside large commercial buildings if special
additional precautions are taken. See below.
For All Indoor and Outdoor Uses
Placement of the Machine: · Where it will NOT be exposed to rain, snow, or
direct sunlight. Exposure to water can cause electric shock. · Where no
flammable vapors, dusts, and gases are present. · At least 7 feet away from
combustible materials (when burner used).
· Away from all building windows and air intakes (when burner used).
· Away from other heat-generating equipment.
Positioning: · The pressure washer should be positioned on a firm, level (less
that 3-degree slope), heat resistance surface with good drainage and a nearby
water supply. · Ensure that the pressure washer sits level and will not slide
or shift during operation. If applicable, block the pressure washer’s wheels
to prevent movement. Surface should be heat resistant if you will be using the
burner for heated spray. · Block wheels to prevent movement.
Airflow: · Provide for adequate, unobstructed airflow for cooling and
combustion air. · Do not allow debris to accumulate or block airflow. · Do not
operate with a tarp, blanket, or cover surrounding the machine. · Do not place
any objects against or on top of the unit.
Electrical Precautions: · To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all cord
connections dry and off the ground. · Do not touch plug with wet hands.
For Indoor Hot Water/Burner Use
Exhaust: · Hot fumes from burner must be exhausted through a hood or piped to
the outside. · Place the unit so that the exhaust fumes will not be directed
towards people or building air intakes. Precautions: · Keep a fire
extinguisher rated “ABC” nearby. Keep it properly charged and be familiar with
its use. · Ensure that working, battery-operated or battery back-up carbon
monoxide alarms are used in any structure that is in close proximity to the
running pressure washer.
15
Before Each Use
· An abundant amount of air must be available for proper combustion and
cooling. Do not install in small, enclosed areas without an ample circulation
of supply air.
· For more details, refer to NFPA 31: Standard for the Installation of Oil-
Burning Equipment. Chapter 5 provides guidelines on how to ensure adequate air
is provided for safe combustion.
DANGER: Carbon monoxide poisoning hazard
Exhaust fumes from the burner contain carbon monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas
you cannot see, smell, or taste. The CO generated by the pressure washer can
rapidly accumulate, even in areas that appear to be well ventilated, resulting
in dangerous and fatal concentrations within minutes. ONLY run pressure washer
outdoors and away from air intakes. NEVER run pressure washer inside any
enclosed or semi-enclosed spaces, including homes, garages, basements, sheds,
boxes, pick-up truck beds, RVs, or boats. These spaces can trap poisonous
gases, EVEN if you run a fan or open windows. If you start to feel sick,
dizzy, or weak while using the pressure washer, shut off the motor and get to
fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have carbon monoxide poisoning.

Operation
Step 1. Connect Hoses, Water Supply, and Spray Nozzle
Note: The electrical power and pump are both off during Step 1 procedures.
Attach Garden Hose to Water Supply
1. Acquire a suitable garden hose:
· The water supply garden hose must have an inside diameter of at least 5/8″.
If the hose is more than 100 ft. long, the diameter must be at least 3/4″.
· Always use a flexible rubber hose for your water supply. Do not use rigid
piping.
· The use of a backflow preventer on the supply hose is recommended and may be
required by local code.
2. Attach garden hose to water supply.
Check Water Supply
· Make sure the water supply is clean. Debris can cause excess pump wear and
reduce performance.
· Make sure the water supply is steady and capable of flowing at a rate 20%
over the rated flow of your pump. An insufficient water supply will damage
your pump. Use a stopwatch to time how long it takes to fill a 5-gallon bucket
with your garden hose. It should take less than 100 seconds.
WARNING: Incompatable component hazard
NEVER operate this pump with components (such as hose, connections, and spray
gun) rated for lower pressure and/or temperature limits than the machine’s
maximum rated pressure and temperature, or component will likely rupture and
cause serious personal injury from escaping high pressure fluids.

Safety Rules
Prevent slips/loss of balance. High-pressure spray could cause you to lose
balance from kickback forces, and wet surfaces can be slippery.
· Keep good footing and balance at all times. · Do not overreach. · Do not
stand on unstable support when spraying. · Use extreme caution when spraying
from a ladder
or scaffolding, ensure it is firmly anchored from sway or tip-over. Use
extreme caution to avoid falling as spray gun kick can propel you off the
ladder or scaffolding. · Be aware of puddles and slippery surfaces. Ensure
there is adequate drainage to prevent pooling of water.
Keep spray away from electrical wiring. Spray contact with electrical wiring will likely result in severe electrical shock or electrocution.
Keep spray away from people. Never direct discharge stream at or near any person. Do not allow any part of the body to come in contact with the fluid stream.
Prevent surface damage & flying debris. Surfaces being sprayed must be strong
enough to withstand highpressure spray, or damage may result. In addition,
highpressure spray will dislodge unsecured objects, surface chips, and debris,
resulting in hazardous flying objects that can cause personal injury or
property damage. Do not spray brittle surfaces or breakable, fragile,
unsecured objects, such as:
· Stucco or laminar flagstone · Some painted surfaces · Windows or glass doors
(because they may
break) · Light fixtures, flowerbeds, mailboxes · Unsecured, lightweight
objects
18
Operation
Prepare to wash small parts in a basket so the pressure does not push them
away. Clamp down larger, lightweight parts.
Personal Protective Gear
WARNING: High pressure spray hazard
· High pressure spray can cause injection injury, eye injury, and loss of
balance. Serious injury could result from unintentional release of high-
pressure spray from the gun upon engaging the trigger.
· ALWAYS turn power switch to OFF position and relieve system pressure when
leaving pressure washer unattended.
· Total Start/Stop feature allows temporary motor shut-off (STOP) when the
trigger is disengaged and allows motor turn-on (START) when the trigger is
reengaged. This feature should NEVER be used to shut-off pressure washer when
not in use.
When operating the machine, wear: · Waterproof, thermally insulated gloves ·
Safety glasses with side and top protection · Protective clothing · Non-slip,
protective footwear · Respirator or mask to avoid inhalation of vapors if
directed on the chemical label (if spraying chemicals).
Purging
Note: Pressure washer will first be purged using water supply pressure only,
not pressure washer pump. Do not plug electric pump in yet.
· Turn on water supply. · Disengage safety latch and squeeze trigger to attain
a steady stream of water. This purges the pump of air and impurities. · To
prevent accidental spraying, engage the safety latch on spray gun trigger by
rotating it to the locked position.
Spraying Procedure
· Never run the machine without sufficient pump oil or sufficient water to
cool the pump.
· Hold the spray gun firmly with two hands and a sturdy stance (gun kicks back
when triggered).
· Nozzle should be 12″ to 24″ from the work, closer for tough areas.
· Disengage safety latch and start spraying at the top using long, even, side-
to-side, overlapping passes.
· The pressure washer is set and locked to the maximum rated pressure when it
leaves the factory. To reduce the pressure, turn the Unloader knob
counterclockwise (Fig.1574210_9).
· If temporarily stopping, interrupting spray, rotate trigger safety latch
downward to the locked position to guard against accidental trigger release.
Note: Do not attempt to secure the spray gun open by blocking or tying the
spray gun in the on position. Uncontrollable hose whipping can occur if grip
is lost.
· Always turn off the motor by turning Power switch off and then activate
spray gun trigger to relieve system pressure when:
· The sprayer is unattended, or when · Disconnecting hoses,
installing/cleaning
nozzles, or servicing the pump.

21
Storage
Between-Use Storage
Before storing, let machine cool for at least 5 minutes, as a hot engine can
be a fire hazard. Place in a secure location where it will not be started by
untrained persons.
RV Antifreeze Supply Bucket
Hose
Outlet
An appropriate storage location is: · Clean and dry. · Away from sources of
heat, open flames, sparks or pilot lights, even if the and burner fuel tank is
empty. (Residual fuel vapors from tank can ignite.) · Away from extreme high
or low temperatures. (Do not store the unit in freezing conditions unless it
is prepared as directed in “Winter Storage Preparation.”)
Long-Term Storage Preparation (between infrequent uses and at end of season)
Prepare for long-term storage if you will not be using machine again for more
than 30 days. Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel
causes acid and gum deposits to form in the fuel system which can cause the
machine to malfunction. To avoid problems, the fuel system should be emptied
or treated with a fuel preserver before storing the machine longer than 30
days.
Winter Storage Preparation
Machines containing water for cooling or those that use water during operation
need special preparation for storage during the winter (or freezing) months to
prevent water from freezing in the system.
Note: Long-term storage is treated differently than between-use storage. Do
not allow water to freeze in the pressure washer, high-pressure hose, or spray
gun. Freezing water will cause damage to the equipment and can cause the spray
gun to fail in the open position. A spray gun that has failed in the open
position can whip around and cause personal injury when the pressure washer is
started. Winterize as follows: Material List: 1. Two 5-gallon buckets
2. 4-5 foot long garden hose or equivalent (recommend 5/8″ to ¾” diameter
with male ¾” Garden hose threads on one end)
Spray Bucket
Fig.1574210_10
Procedure:
Inlet Hose
1. In a 5 gallon pour at least 2 gallons of environmentally safe antifreeze.
Note: whether using undiluted or pre-diluted antifreeze, follow manufactures
mixing guidelines to ensure proper freeze protection.
2. Elevate bucket so it is higher than the unloader. 3. Connect a 4-5-foot-
long garden hose or
equivalent to inlet connection. 4. To ensure good priming fill hose with water
or
antifreeze mix before placing end into 5-gallon bucket of antifreeze. 5. With
the nozzle removed, trigger gun off, and with burner off point trigger gun
into a second empty 5-gallon bucket and start the unit. 6. With unit running,
spray into the empty bucket for several seconds then release trigger for 2
seconds. Continue cycling the trigger gun multiple times until all the
antifreeze has be drawn from the supply bucket. Note: if system was completely
flushed you should see antifreeze in the spray bucket. 7. With unit shut off,
remove hoses and drain excess antifreeze into spray bucket. 8. Properly
dispose of antifreeze according state EPA laws.
22
Storage
Alternately the system can be blown out with compressed air: Note: although
this method can be effective for winterizing, the above antifreeze method is
preferred because it ensures the entire plumbing system is flushed and
lubricated.
Materials: 1. Properly rated fittings (80 psi or higher) to connect air supply
to inlet connection (¾” garden hose) on pressure washer. 2. Air compressor
with regulator able to set pressure between 60-80 psi.
Procedure:
1. Connect hose and gun to outlet connection. 2. Connect air supply to inlet
connection, ensuring
regulator is set no higher than 80 psi. 3. Pull trigger on gun (with nozzle
removed) and
allow air to push water out of plumbing. Continue hold trigger gun open until
water stops coming out of. 4. Turn off air compressor and pull trigger on gun
to relieve any trapped pressure in the system. 5. Disconnect air compressor,
hose, and trigger gun. 6. Remove thermal relief valve located at the bottom of
the unloader (see Component identification page) and allow water from the
bypass loop to drain out. Once drained reinstall thermal relief fitting.
Prepare the pressure washer for storage
1. Make sure the Motor start switch is OFF. 2. Disconnect the high-pressure
hose, garden
hose, and spray gun.
Let Pressure washer cool for 5 minutes before moving the pressure washer to
its storage location.

Descale Heating Coil
If pressure washer is used where the water source contains a high mineral
content, or is considered “Hard Water”, scale can build up inside the heating
coil tubing. Scale deposits will decrease the performance of pressure washer
by reducing both water flow and water pressure. The use of a water softener
and an additional strainer may be needed in areas that have high mineral
content in the water supply. More frequent descaling may be required if higher
temperatures or steam mode is used regularly. Descale the coil tubing more
frequently if you detect a decrease in pressure or temperature.
CAUTION: De-scaling burn hazard
Do not run the burner while de-scaling.

Maintenance & Repair
Inspect and clean the flow switch as needed
Mineral build-up and/or debris within the flow switch can occur and may affect
burner operation if not periodically cleaned. Mineral build-up and/or debris
can stop the movement of the shuttle inside the flow switch body. Shuttle
movement is important because the burner will not fire if the shuttle does not
move. The shuttle movement actuates a switch inside the flow switch housing
which allows the burner to fire during spray mode.

tape/sealant. Re-apply new thread tape/sealant on the elbow. Reconnect the
swivel to the elbow. Hand-tighten the swivel onto the elbow, and once snug,
using a wrench continue to tighten the swivel two additional revolutions.
Inspect Heating Coil and Desoot as Needed
Most coils never require desooting. However, poor grades of fuel oil or inadequate combustion air will cause heavy soot build-up on the outside surface of the heating coil tubing. These deposits will insulate the coil, which then restricts air flow through the heat exchanger and further aggravates the soot build-up. Be sure to wipe the sight glass. See Fig06172 on next page.
If soot has built up on the exterior of the coil tubing, clean as follows:
Shuttle (RMoaluenTdabesd) End First
9) Inspect the O-ring on the “Cap”, if it is damaged, replace the entire flow
switch assembly. To order a replacement flow switch assembly, call Northstar
Product Support at 1-800-270-0810. If
the O-ring is not damaged, re-install the “Cap” onto the “Body”. Torque the
cap to 100lb-in. 28

the Coil and attach to a hoist to lift off. You may also use the lifting eyes
with hooks to lift with hoist. This coil weighs at least 125 lbs. If no hoist
is available, it is recommended that this become a 2-man job each with the
ability to lift at least 65 lbs. 10) Clean the coil. 11) Reassemble the coil
and lids to the machine. Make sure the white insulation remains in place. 12)
Reattach high-pressure hose and thermostat and make sure all fittings are
tight before using the machine.
- Disconnect flame sensor and electrode wires. Disconnect fuel line.
- Clean off carbon deposits, which may have accumulated on the tips of the electrodes.

Maintenance & Repair
Instructions for inspecting: 1) Remove flame sensor bracket
Flame sensor bracket
Fig157115-4
2) Following normal starting procedure with burner and thermostat off. With
unit running look through flame sensor sight glass to observe if there is a
spark.
Perform Engine Maintenance
All mechanical equipment, no matter how well designed, will need maintenance
and repairs. NorthStar Product Support will assist in these repairs as needed,
but if an inoperable pressure washer creates a major expense to your business,
then we strongly recommend the following:
· Have a staff person become familiar with the mechanical operation of the
pressure washer and capable of making minor repairs and performing all
preventative maintenance procedures.
· Keep a stock of recommended service parts for maintenance and minor repairs.
IMPORTANT
If a part needs replacement, only use parts that meet the manufacturer’s part
number specifications. Replacement parts that do not meet specifications may
result in a safety hazard or poor operation of the pressure washer.
Contact NorthStar Product Support at 1-800270-0810 for any questions,
problems, or parts orders.

Oil Burner Adjustment (only needed if white exhaust smoke appears)
The oil burner is preset, and performance tested at factory elevation of 1100
feet. Different altitudes may require a one-time initial burner adjustment.
CAUTION: Improper fuel-air mixture
If white smoke appears from the burner exhaust vent during start-up or
operation, discontinue use and readjust air bands.
Adjusting burner will require accessing it from underneath the pressure washer
while someone else is operating the spray gun.
1. Locate the Air intake adjustment cover on blower housing (fig06839) below.
Observe the position of the arrow on the cover relative to the calibration
numbers. (For unit 1574213 0 is fully closed and 10 is fully open and for
units 1574210, 11 & 1574212 0 is fully closed and 9 is fully open).
2. Make sure burner is cool to the touch before attempting adjustments.
3. Begin operation of the pressure washer and switch on the burner, as
instructed in the operation section of the manual. Have someone operate the
spray gun so the burner ignites.
Note: which number the arrow is near.
5. Slowly rotate air intake covers counterclockwise (open) until white smoke
just starts to appear. Note: If no white smoke appears use fully opened
calibration number for reference point.
6. Turn lever halfway back to the black smoke/rumbling sound position
previously noted. Tighten the locking set screw.
7. Trigger gun on for 15 seconds and off for 5 seconds. Repeat this cycle
5-10 times. If not large puffs of white smoke are observed inlet air intake
adjustment is complete. If large puffs of white smoke are observed on any
reignitions this could be a sign that the air intake is opened to wide and
will need further adjustment.
8. If large puffs of white smoke were observed in step 7, close air intake
cover by half a calibration number. (example if calibration number is set to 5
then close intake cover to 4.5)
9. Repeat step 7 & 8 until unit re-ignites without large puffs of white
smoke.
Note: Typical factory calibration is as follows: 1574210, 1574211 (between
2-5) 1574212 (between5-7), 1574213 (between 5-8).
LOCKING SET SCREW
Fig.06839 4. Locate and loosen the locking set screw
(fig06839) and rotate the cover clockwise (close) until either of following
happens black smoke appears from the burner exhaust vent or a rumbling sound
is heard.

Summary of Important Safety Information
This section provides a summary of the various safety procedures and measures
that have been presented throughout the manual. Keep this summary handy and
refer to it to refresh your memory about how to safely use your pressure
washer.
WARNING
Carefully read and understand the following safety information before using the pressure washer. Improper use or maintenance of the pressure washer can result in serious injury or death to the operator or bystanders from:
· Carbon monoxide poisoning · Fire/explosion · Chemical exposure
· Skin/eye injury from high pressure spray
· Burns · Electric shock
· Slips/falls · Flying objects/debris
GENERAL
· Read all instructions. Read and understand this Owner’s Manual and the Motor
Owner’s Manual completely before attempting to set-up and use the pressure
washer. Serious injury or death can result if safety and other instructions
are not followed.
· Instruct all operators. The pressure washer’s owner must instruct all
operators and potential renters in safe pressure washer set-up and operation.
Do not allow anyone to operate the pressure washer who has not read the
Owner’s Manual and been instructed on its safe use. Owner’s Manuals are
available from NorthStar at
1-800-270-0810.
· Adult control only. Only trained adults should set up and operate the
pressure washer. Do not let children operate. Pressure washers can generate
forces greater than children can control and require judgment beyond what can
be expected of children.
· Under the influence. Never operate, or let anyone else operate, the pressure
washer while fatigued or under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
· Understand intended use. Carefully read about and understand the intended
use of this pressure washer. Do not use for other purposes, as unforeseen
hazards or equipment damage may result.
PROHIBITION AGAINST MODIFICATIONS Never modify or alter the pressure washer in
any way or deactivate any safety device. Modifications can create serious
safety hazards and will also void the warranty.
· Fuel/exhaust system. Never add to or modify the exhaust system, fuel tank,
or fuel lines. Carbon monoxide poisoning, fuel leaks, fire or explosion could
result.
· Unloader valve. Do not attempt to alter the unloader valve’s maximum
pressure. Excess pressure could cause serious injury from escaping high-
pressure fluids and/or pump damage. Any alteration other than turning the
adjustment knob will void your warranty.
· Guards. Do not operate pressure washer unless all guards and cover shields
are in place.
SAFETY INSTALLATION & SET-UP
Installation / Initial Set-up · Level, heat-resistant surface. Situate
pressure washer on a firm, level, and heat-resistant surface with good
drainage. Ensure it
sits level and will not slide or shift during operation. Block wheels to
prevent movement. · Prevent carbon monoxide poisoning Use outside only!
Exhaust fumes from both the Motor and the burner contain carbon
monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see, smell, or taste. The CO
generated by the pressure washer can rapidly accumulate, even in areas that
appear to be well ventilated, resulting in dangerous and fatal concentrations
within minutes. To prevent dangerous CO build-up: · ONLY use pressure washer
outdoors and at least 20 feet from the home, away from windows, vents, and air
intakes, to allow proper ventilation. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or
weak while using the pressure washer, shut off the Motor and get to fresh air
RIGHT AWAY. · NEVER run pressure washer in an enclosed or partially enclosed
location such as a building, garage, shed, or vehicle. Running a fan or
opening windows will not provide adequate ventilation to prevent dangerous CO
build-up.
58
Summary of Important Safety Information
· Adequate ventilation. The pressure washer needs adequate, unobstructed flow
of air to allow for proper combustion and cooling. Situate so there is
adequate clearance around pressure washer to allow for airflow at least 7′
from any non-combustible wall or obstruction. Never place any objects against
or on top of pressure washer.
· CO alarms. Ensure that working, battery-operated or battery back-up carbon
monoxide alarms are used in any dwelling/structure that is in close proximity
to the running pressure washer.
· Hot exhaust – fires. Exhausts from burner can be extremely hot and cause
fire. Position pressure washer so burner exhaust is at least 7′ away from
combustible objects during operation.
Fuel Safety Burner fuels are combustible at warm temperatures. You can be
burned or seriously injured when handling fuel. Use extreme care when handling
fuel, including these preventative measures: · Fuel outdoors. Fill fuel tank
outdoors never indoors. Fuel vapors can ignite if they collect inside an
enclosure. Explosion can
result. · Use approved container. Never pump fuel directly into fuel tank at
gas station. Static charge can build and ignite fuel. Use an
UL approved fuel container to transfer fuel. · Running / hot Burner. A hot
burner is hot enough to ignite fuel. Never add fuel or remove fuel cap if
burner is running or still hot.
Allow Burner to cool at least two minutes before adding fuel. · Heat / flames

Summary of Important Safety Information
· Position safely. Place sprayer on firm, level ground to prevent accidental
falls and equipment tip-over. · Not in presence of combustibles. Do not use
the pressure washer in the presence of flammable vapors, dust, gases, or other
potentially combustible materials. Operate only where open flame or torch is
permitted · Use backflow preventer. The use of a back-flow preventer on the
water supply hose is recommended and may be required by
local code. · Clear work area. Clear work area of all bystanders. Keep
children and pets away. · Wear protective gear. High-pressure spray can cause
eye/skin injury, hot water can burn, and flying objects/debris can cause
injury. Serious injection injury can result if high-pressure spray penetrates
the skin. Operators should wear waterproof, thermally insulated gloves, safety
glasses with side and top protection, face protection, and protective clothing
when operating the machine. If spraying pressure washer specific cleaning
chemicals, wear a respirator or mask to avoid inhalation of vapors if directed
on the chemical label. · Wear non-slip footwear. Use of pressure washer can
create puddles and slippery surfaces. Wear footwear capable of maintaining a
good grip on wet surfaces. · Check nozzle. The nozzle can become a projectile
and cause serious personal injury or property damage if not properly connected
to the spray gun. Check to ensure the nozzle has been properly attached to the
spray gun before using the pressure washer.
During use · Safety latch locked before starting Motor. Always engage the
safety latch on the spray gun trigger before starting the Motor. · Incoming
water supply on. Do not run the pump without the water supply connected and
turned on. Operating the pressure
washer without an incoming flow of water will damage the pump. · Wait before
re-lighting burner. NEVER attempt to immediately run or re-light the burner if
it doesn’t ignite the first time. Unburned
fuel may have accumulated, causing potential explosion or fire hazard. · Use
two hands. Pressure washer spray gun kicks back when triggered. Firmly grasp
with two hands. · Stay alert. Watch what you are always doing. · Prevent slips
/ loss of balance. High-pressure spray could cause you to lose balance from
kickback forces, and wet surfaces can
be slippery. · Always keep good footing and balance. · Do not overreach. · Do
not stand on unstable support when spraying. · Use extreme caution when
spraying from a ladder or scaffolding, ensure it is firmly anchored from sway
or tip-over. Use extreme caution to avoid falling as spray gun kick can propel
you off the ladder or scaffolding. · Be aware of puddles and slippery
surfaces. Ensure there is adequate drainage to prevent pooling of water.
· Keep spray away from people. Never direct discharge stream at or near any
person. Do not allow any part of the body to come in contact with the fluid
stream. High-pressure spray will cause serious skin, eye, or falling injuries,
and hot water can burn. Injection injury will occur if high-pressure spray
pierces the skin, injecting liquid under the skin. Injection injury can result
in blood poisoning and/or severe tissue damage leading to infection, gangrene
and possibly amputation.
· Prevent surface damage & flying debris Surfaces being sprayed must be
strong enough to withstand high-pressure spray, or damage may result. In
addition, high-pressure spray will dislodge unsecured objects as well as
surface chips and debris, resulting in hazardous flying objects that can cause
personal injury or property damage. Do not spray brittle surfaces or
breakable, fragile, or unsecured objects such as: o stucco or laminar
flagstone o some painted surfaces o windows or glass doors (because they may
break) o light fixtures, flowerbeds, mailboxes o unsecured, lightweight
objects
· Do not lock spray gun trigger in ON position. To reduce risk of injury, do
not attempt to secure the spray gun open by blocking or tying the spray gun in
the open position.

for use in pressure washers may be used. Never spray acids, corrosives, or
abrasive or flammable liquids. Breathing hazards, surface burns/corrosion, or
fire/explosion could result.
· Follow cleaning chemical manufacturer’s instructions. Follow the chemical
manufacturer’s label instructions when handling or spraying chemicals.
Understand all safety hazards and first aid for all chemicals being used. Wear
protective gear as directed. Always wear protective gloves when handling and
cleaning with chemicals. When cleaning filters, check whether dangerous
chemicals have been used with the filter and take any precautions that may
have been recommended by the supplier of these chemicals. Always dispose of
hazardous fluids per local, state, and national guidelines.
· Do not exceed pressure and or temperature limits. Do NOT operate this pump
with components (such as hose, connections, and spray gun) rated for lower
pressure and or temperature limits than the machine’s maximum rated pressure
and temperature, or component could rupture and cause serious personal injury
from escaping high pressure fluids. Do not set the pressure relief device
above the rated pressure. If the high-pressure relief device ever discharges
water, turn the Motor off and do not use the machine. Call Product Support at
1-800-270-0810.
· Never pull by hose. Do not move this machine by pulling on the hose. Hose or
connections could fail and result in catastrophic high-pressure release of
fluid as well as hose whipping.
· Avoid sharp objects. Keep hose away from sharp objects. Bursting hoses may
cause injury. · No load bearing. Do not use the pump to support other items of
equipment that impose unacceptable loads on the pump. Do not
attempt to use this machine as a prop. · Hot exhaust/parts. Stay clear of
Motor and burner exhausts. Never touch hot Motor muffler, burner/heating coil,
or other hot
surfaces. All are very hot and will burn you. · Hot spray gun metal when using
burner. Never touch the metal screw or any metal parts of the spray gun when
the heater is
being used the metal gets very hot and will burn you. · Smoking/sparks.
Never smoke near the running Motor, and never operate near sources of sparks
or flames as flammable fuel
vapors are in the vicinity of the pressure washer. · Lock trigger safety latch
when not spraying. Spray gun is equipped with a built-in trigger safety latch
to guard against
accidental trigger release. Rotate safety latch to the locked position when
not spraying. · Relieve water pressure. Always stop the product and relieve
system pressure before leaving the sprayer unattended, or when
disconnecting hoses, removing nozzles, or servicing the pump. · Refueling.

direct spray at this machine. Do not attempt to clean this machine with its
own spray. Motor damage will result. Cleaning
should be done with a damp sponge with the Motor OFF. · Seek medical aid for
suspected carbon monoxide poisoning. The running Motor gives off carbon
monoxide, a poisonous gas
that can kill you. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using the
pressure washer, shut off the Motor and get to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a
doctor. You may have carbon monoxide poisoning. · Seek medical aid for
suspected injection injury. If injured by high-pressure fluid, no matter how
small the wound is, see a doctor at once. A typical injection injury may be a
small puncture wound that does not look serious. However, severe infection or
reaction can result if proper medical treatment is not administered
immediately by a doctor who is familiar with injection injuries. · Other
exhaust dangers. This product contains or emits chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Avoid
inhalation of exhaust.
