This product contains or emits chemical known to the Commonwealth of Australia to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Avoid inhalation of exhaust.
DO NOT operate the engine or handle any electrical equipment while standing in water, while barefoot,
while hands are wet or while in the rain or snow. An electric shock may result.
Avoid contact with bare wires, terminals, connections, etc. while the pressure washer is running.
If an electric shock accident occurs, immediately shut down the source of electrical power. If this is not
possible, attempt to free the victim from the live conductor. Avoid direct contact with the victim. Use a
non- conducting implement, such as a dry rope or board, to free the victim from the live conductor.
Administer/apply applicable first aid and get immediate medical help.
Never smoke near the running engine and never operate near sources of sparks or flames.
SERVICE
Have your pressure washer serviced by a qualified repair person using only factory approved
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the pressure washer is maintained. Incorrectly
fitted parts will void your warranty.
The equipment may only be used, maintained or repaired by those persons who understand and have
been instructed about the potential dangers. Independent changes in the equipment cancel any
manufacturer’s liability for any damages that result from these changes.
APPROPRIATE USE
Use the equipment only when it is in technically perfect condition and only for appropriate jobs, with an
awareness of safety and possible dangers, based on observation of the operating instructions. In
particular, problems which could influence the operational safety must be dealt with immediately.
All of the manufacture’s safety, work and maintenance regulations as well as the given norms in the
Technical Data must be observed.
STATIC ELECTRICITY AND FILLING THE PETROL TANK
Static electricity can initiate from un-grounded petrol tanks or containers from flowing petrol and
persons carrying a static electric charge. Static electricity can explosively ignite petrol vapours that are
present during the fuelling process, resulting in serious burns to nearby persons.
Many objects can accumulate and retain a static electric charge. Objects made of non-conductive
materials (eg. plastics) easily accumulate and retain static electrical charge, as can objects made of
conductive material (eg. metal, water) if they are not electrically grounded.
To avoid static electricity while fuelling, certain steps must be followed before and during the fuelling
process in order to minimise and safely dissipate static charge build-up:
Touch a grounded metal object before starting. Always dissipate static charge from your body before
beginning the fuelling process by touching a grounded metal object at a safe distance away from the
fuel source.
