SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION

This pressure washer is provided with a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug or the power-supply cord. This device provides additional protection from the risk of electric shock. Should replacement of the ground-fault circuit-interrupter or cord become necessary, use only identical replacement parts.
SERVICING OF A DOUBLE-INSULATED APPLIANCE In a double-insulated product, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is provided on a double-insulated product, nor should a means for grounding be added to the product. Servicing a double-insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be done only by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated product must be identical to the parts they replace.

EXTENSION CORDS

WARNING: Inadequate extension cords can be dangerous.
If the appliance cord is equipped with a GFCI, do not use extension cords. If the appliance cord is not equipped with a GFCI, the appliance and any extension cord used should be connected only to a GFCI-protected power source.

1. Use only extension cords that have grounding-type plugs and female cord connectors that accept the plug from the product.
2. Use only extension cords that are intended for outdoor use. These extension cords are identified on the packaging or on the cord by a marking “Acceptable for use with outdoor appliances; store indoors while not in use.”
3. Use only extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of the product.
4. Do not use a damaged extension cord. Examine the extension cord before using and replace if damaged.
5. Do not abuse the extension cord and do not yank on a cord to disconnect.
6. Keep the cord away from heat and sharp edges.
7. Always disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the product from the extension cord.
   WARNING – To reduce the risk of electrocution, use only a GFCI-protected extension cord or plug it into a GFCI outlet. Keep all connections dry and off the ground. Do not touch the plug with wet hands.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS

1. The electric supply connection shall be made by a quali-fied electrician and comply with IEC 60364-1. It is recommended that the electric supply to this appliance should include either a residual current device that will interrupt the supply if the leakage current to earth exceeds 30 for 30 ms or a device that will prove the earth circuit.
2. WARNING: This appliance has been designed for use with the cleaning agent supplied or recommended by the manufacturer. The use of other cleaning agents or chemicals may adversely affect the safety of the appliance.
3. WARNING: Do not use the appliance within range of persons unless they wear protective clothing.
4. WARNING: High-pressure jets can be dangerous if subject to misuse. The jet must not be directed at persons, live electrical equipment, or the appliance itself.
5. Do not direct the jet against yourself or others in order to clean clothes or footwear.
6. Disconnect from the electrical power supply before carrying out user maintenance.
7. High-pressure cleaners shall not be used by children or untrained personnel.
8. To ensure appliance safety, use only original spare parts from the manufacturer or approved by the manufacturer.
9. WARNING: High-pressure hoses, fittings, and couplings are important for the safety of the appliance. Use only hoses, fittings, and couplings recommended by the manufacturer.
10. Do not use the appliance if a supply cord or important parts of the appliance are damaged, e.g. safety devices, high-pressure hoses, trigger guns.
