Operation

Step 1: Safe Location
Before starting the pressure washer, there are two equally
important safety concerns regarding carbon monoxide
poisoning and fire that must be addressed.
Operation Location to Reduce the Risk of Carbon
Monoxide Poisoning
The engine exhaust of all fossil fuel burning equipment,
such as a pressure washer, contains carbon monoxide, a
poisonous gas that could kill you in minutes. You cannot
smell it, see it, or taste it. Even if you do not smell exhaust
fumes, you could still be exposed to carbon monoxide gas.
By law, it is required in many states to have a carbon
monoxide alarm in operating condition in your home. A
carbon monoxide alarm is an electronic device that detects
hazardous levels of carbon monoxide. When there is
a buildup of carbon monoxide, the alarm will alert the
occupants by flashing a visual indicator light and an alarm.
Smoke alarms cannot detect carbon monoxide gas.

WARNING! Engine exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a poisonous gas that could kill you in
minutes. You cannot smell it, see it, or taste it.
Even if you do not smell exhaust fumes, you could still be
exposed to carbon monoxide gas.
• Operate this product only outdoors, far away from
windows, doors and vents to reduce the risk of carbon
monoxide gas accumulating and the potential of being
drawn towards occupied spaces.
• Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or
plug-in carbon monoxide alarms with battery back-up
according to the manufacturer's instructions. Smoke
alarms cannot detect carbon monoxide gas.
• Do not run this product inside homes, garages,
basements, crawlspaces, sheds, or other partially-
enclosed spaces even if using fans or opening doors and
windows for ventilation. Carbon monoxide can quickly
build up in these spaces and can linger for hours, even
after this product has shut off.
• Point exhaust away from all homes and occupied
spaces.
• If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using this
product, get to fresh air right away. See a doctor. You
may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
CARBON MONOXIDE ALARM(S)
Install carbon monoxide alarms inside
your home. Without working carbon
monoxide alarms, you may not realize
you are getting sick and dying from
carbon monoxide poisoning.
