! Wear safety goggles.
! Do not use acids and solvents in this
product. These products can cause
physical injuries to the operator and
irreversible damage to the machine.
! To reduce the risk of electrocution,
keep all connections dry and off the
ground. Do not touch plug with wet
hands.
! The Trigger Gun Safety Lock PRE-
VENTS the trigger from accidentally

WARNING
To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep
all connections dry and off the ground.
Do not touch plug with wet hands.
This product must be grounded. If it
should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resis-
tance for electric current to reduce the risk
of electric shock. This product is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-ground-
ing conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electrocution. Check with a qualified
electrician or service personnel if you
are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with the product - if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet in-
stalled by a qualified electrician. Do not
use any type of adapter with this prod-
uct.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Grounding Instructions
English 5
This product is supplied with a Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) built into
the power cord plug. This device pro-
vides additional protection from the risk
of electric shock. If power is interrupted
in the line, the GFCI will automatically
re-close the circuit to the load after pow-
er is restored. Depending on the GFCI
model, it may be necessary to manually
operate the reset button to restore pow-
er to the GFCI load circuit. If replace-
ment of the plug or cord is needed use
identical replacement parts.
CAUTION
When connecting the water inlet to the
water supply mains, local regulations of
your water company must be observed.
In some areas the unit must not be con-
nected directly to the public drinking wa-
ter supply. This is to ensure that there is
no feedback of chemicals into the water
supply. Direct connection via a receiver
tank or backflow preventer for example,
is permitted.
Dirt in the feed water will damage the
unit. To avoid this risk, we recommend
fitting a water filter.
! Water hose must be at least 5/8 inch
in diameter.
! Flow rate of water supply must not
fall below 2 GPM (gallons per minu-
te).
! Flow rate can be determined by run-
ning the water for one minute into an
empty 5-gallon container.
! The water supply temperature must
not exceed 104°F/40°C.
! Never use the pressure washer to
draw in water contaminated with sol-
vents, e.g. paint thinners, gasoline,
oil, etc.
! Always prevent debris from being
drawn into the unit by using a clean
water source.

PELIGRO
Si la conexión del conductor a tierra del
equipo es incorrecta puede existir ries-
go de electrochoque. En caso de duda,
compruebe con ayuda de un electricista
cualificado o del personal del servicio
técnico que el tomacorriente está cor-
rectamente puesto a tierra. No modi-
fique el enchufe proporcionado con el
producto; si no encaja en el tomacorri-
ente, pida a un electricista cualificado

do. No utilice ningún tipo de adaptador
con este producto.
Este producto se suministra con un in-
terruptor de circuito de avería por pue-
sta a tierra montado en el enchufe del
cable de potencia. Este aparato propor-
ciona una protección adicional contra el
riesgo de electrochoque. Si la corriente
se interrumpe en la línea, el interruptor
de circuito de avería por puesta a tierra
volverá a cerrar, automáticamente, el
circuito a la carga una vez restablecida
la corriente. En función del modelo de
interruptor, puede que sea necesario te-
ner que poner en funcionamiento el
aparato manualmente mediante el
botón de reinicio para restaurar la corri-
ente del circuito de carga del interruptor
de circuito de avería por puesta a tierra.
Si es necesario reemplazar el enchufe o
el cable, utilice piezas idénticas.
ATENCIÓN
Al conectar la toma de agua a la red de
suministro del agua, es obligatorio res-
petar la normativa local establecida por
la compañía del agua. En algunas zo-
nas, está prohibido conectar la unidad
directamente a la red pública de sumini-
stro de agua potable. Esto es así para
garantizar que no penetren sustancias
químicas en la red de suministro del
agua. Sí se permite efectuar la
conexión directamente por ejemplo a
través de un depósito receptor o un dis-
positivo antirretorno.
Si el agua de alimentación está sucia, la
unidad sufrirá daños. Para evitar este
riesgo, le recomendamos que monte un
filtro de agua.
! La manguera de agua tiene que te-
ner al menos 5/8 pulgadas de diá-
metro.
! El caudal de agua no debe ser infe-
rior a 2 GPM (galones por minuto).
! El caudal de agua se puede determi-
nar llenando de agua un recipiente
vacío de 5 galones durante un minu-
to.
! La temperatura de la toma de agua
no de be sobrepasar los 104°F/
40°C.
! No utilice nunca el limpiador a pre-
sión para aspirar agua contaminada
con disolventes como, p. ej., di-
luyentes de pintura, gasolina, aceite,
etc.
! Evite siempre que la unidad aspire
residuos utilizando una fuente de
abastecimiento cuya agua esté lim-
pia.
