STEP 3. SELECT A SUITABLE OUTDOOR WORKSITE
Before using the pressure washer, you must understand the criteria for selecting a suitable location for operation. Note that this pressure washer is
for OUTDOOR USE only.
WARNING: You must choose a suitable site for operating your pressure washer to avoid equipment damage and/or injury and death
from carbon monoxide poisoning, fire/explosion, uncontrolled equipment movement/tip over, or slips and falls. Choose a site that meets all
the following six criteria:
1) OUTDOORS only, and away from all building windows and air intakes.
2) Where no flammable vapors, dusts, and gases are present.
3) Where there is adequate, unobstructed ventilation airflow.
4) With adequate clearance from combustible materials.
5) On a firm, level, heat-resistant surface with good drainage.
6) If placed inside a truck bed, or on a trailer ensure skid is secured and properly grounded. To ground the skid, see the
Assembly & Initial Set-Up instructions.
Details regarding each of these criteria are provided below.
Outdoor Use Only
DANGER: Carbon monoxide poisoning hazard
Exhaust fumes from both the engine 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. Follow the
directions below for choosing a location to operate your pressure washer to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
The location you choose to operate the pressure washer must be OUTDOORS and away from all building
air intakes.
• Never run the pressure washer in an enclosed or partially enclosed location such as a building, garage, barn,
shed, or house. These spaces can trap poisonous gases. Running a fan or opening windows will not
provide adequate ventilation to prevent dangerous CO build-up.
• Only use the pressure washer outdoors and far away from open windows, doors, and building or vehicle
vents.
• Place the pressure washer so that the exhaust fumes will not be directed towards people or building air
intakes.
• Ensure that working, battery-operated or battery back-up carbon monoxide alarms are used in any
dwelling/structure that is near the running pressure washer.
• Note that this pressure washer is NOT designed or approved for use in vehicles or marine applications.
Never run the pressure washer inside RVs or other vehicles, on boats, or on pick-up truck beds.
WARNING: Never attempt to attach ductwork to the engine muffler or burner exhaust to allow for installation
