Servicing 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 personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated product must be identical to the parts
they replace. A double-insulated product is marked with the words "DOUBLE-INSULATION" or "DOUBLE-
INSULATED". The shown symbol may also be marked on the product.
Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter Protection
The pressure washer is factory-equipped with an electrical cord with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). This cord
should only be connected to an electrical outlet installed in accordance with local safety regulations. NOTE: The power
supply must be 120V, 60Hz, and a minimum of 15 amp dedicated circuit.
A. Inspect cord before using. Do not use if cord is damaged. Wet power connections will cause the GFCI to trip.
B. Keep all connections dry and off the ground.
C. Do not touch plug with wet hands.
D. The pressure washer is provided with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter built into the power plug. If replacement of the
plug or cord is needed, use only identical replacement parts. Contact Customer Service for replacement parts.
WARNING!
Test GFCI before each use. DO NOT use pressure washer if test below fails.
GFCI Test Procedures
1. Plug power cord into power receptacle. Indicator light on GFCI should illuminate.
2. Press test button. Light should turn off.
3. Press reset button for use. Indicator light should illuminate. Do not use if above test fails. NOTE: The GFCI must be reset
each time the pressure washer is connected to an electrical outlet. Reset by simply pushing the reset button on the GFCI
power plug.
Extension Cords
Extension cords are not recommended unless they are plugged into a receptacle protected by a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter. Any extension cord used must be 12 AWG outdoor with maximum length of 25 feet to prevent excessive
voltage loss. Use only extension cords that are intended for outdoor use. These extension cords are identified by a marking
"Acceptable for use with outdoor appliances; store indoors when not in use". Use only extension cords having an electrical
rating not less than the rating of the product. Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cord before using
and replace if damaged. Do not abuse extension cord and do not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord away from
heat and sharp edges. Always disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the product from the
extension cord.
When using an extension cord, observe the specification below:
Cable length - Up to 25 ft.
Wire Gauge - 12 AWG Outdoor
