FUEL AND EMISSION HAZARDS

NNER fill the fueltank while the unitis running or hot. me fuel used in thisunit is combustibleandwhen spilled on a hot surfacecan ignite and cause a fire. ALWAYS fill tank slowly to avoid spilling.

N N E R operatetheunit in a closed building. The exhaust containscarbonmonoxide,apoisonous,

odorless, invisible gas whichcan cause serious injury or death ifinhaled.

EQUIPMENT MISUSEHAZARD

General Safety

Any misuse ofthepressurewasheroraccessories,

suchasoverpressurizing,modifyingparts,using incompatible chemicalsandfluids, or using wom or damaged parts, can causethem to rupture and resultin fluid injection, splashing inthe eyes or on the skin, or other serious bodily injury, fire, explosion or property damage.

NNER alter or modify any part of this equipment; doing so could cause it to malfunction.

HOSE SAFETY

~..Highpressurefluid inthe hosescanbe verydangerous.

If the hose develops a leak, splitor rupture dueto any kind of wear, damage or misuse,thehighpressure spray emitted fromit can causea fluid injection injuryor other serious bodily injury or property damage.

ALL FLUID HOSES MUSTHAVE STRAIN RELIEFSON BOTH ENDS. The strain reliefs help protect the hose from kinks or bends ai or close to the coupling, which can resultin hose rupture.

TIGHTEN all fluid connectionssecurelybeforeeach use. High pressurefluid can dislodge a loose coupling or allow high pressurespray to be emitted from the coupling.

N N E f l use a damaged hose. Before eachuse, 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.

HANDLEAND ROVTEHOSESCAREFULLY Do not pull on hoses to movethepressurewasher.Donotuse chemicals whichare not compatiblewith the inner tube and cover of the hoseDO. NOT expose Graco hoseto temperatures above 200" F (93' C) or below -40"F

(-400 C).
