EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD

General Safety

Any misuse of the pressure washer or accessories, such as overpressurizing, modifying parts, using incompatible chemicals and fluids, or using worn or damaged parts, can cause them to rupture and result in fluid injection, splashing in the eyes or on the skin, or other serious bodily injury, fire, explosion or property damage.

NEVER alter or modify any part of this equipment; doing so could cause it to malfunction.

CHECK all spray equipment regularly and repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.

ALWAYS wear protective eyewear and appropriate clothing. If using a chemical injector, read and follow the

chemical manufacturer's literature for recommendations on additional protective equipment, such as a respirator.

System Pressure

This sprayer can develop high operating pressures. Be sure that all spray equipment and accessories are rated to withstand the maximum working pressure of this sprayer. DO NOT exceed the maximum working pressure of any component or accessory used in the system.

Chemical Compatibility

BE SURE that all chemicals used in the chemical injector are compatible with the wetted parts of the hose, gun, wand and tip, as given in the Technical Data (inside back cover). Always read the chemical manufacturer's literature before using any chemical in this pressure washer.

HOSE SAFETY

High pressure fluid in the hoses can be very dangerous. If the hose develops a leak, split or rupture due to any kind of wear, damage or misuse, the high pressure spray emitted from it can cause a fluid injection injury or other serious bodily injury or property damage.

ALL FLUID HOSES MUST HAVE STRAIN RELIEFS ON BOTH ENDS. The strain reliefs help protect the hose from kinks or bends at or close to the coupling, which can result in hose rupture.

TIGHTEN all fluid connections securely before each use. High pressure fluid can dislodge a loose coupling or allow high pressure spray to be emitted from the coupling.

NEVER use a damaged hose. Before each use, check entire hose for cuts, leaks, abrasion, bulging cover, or damage or movement of the hose couplings. If any of these conditions exist, replace the hose immediately. DO NOT try to recouple high pressure hose or mend it with tape or any other device. A repaired hose cannot contain the high pressure fluid.

HANDLE AND ROUTE HOSES CAREFULLY. Do not pull on hoses to move the pressure washer. Do not use chemicals which are not compatible with the inner tube and cover of the hose. DO NOT expose Graco hose to temperatures above 200_￿F (93_￿C) or below ±40_ F (±40_￿ C).

FUEL AND EMISSION HAZARDS

NEVER fill the fuel tank while the unit is running or hot. The fuel used in this unit is combustible and when spilled on a hot surface can ignite and cause a fire. ALWAYS fill tank slowly to avoid spilling.

NEVER operate the unit in a closed building. The exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a poisonous, odorless, invisible gas which can cause serious injury or death if inhaled.

NEVER alter the throttle setting, which is factory set. Tampering with this adjustment can damage the pressure washer and will void the warranty.
