Your pressure washer will come with a manual which contains instructions on how
to use your power washer safely. Read carefuly these instructions and follow them.
Be sure to be familiar with the control panel of your pressure washer. You need to
know how to turn it off in case of an emergency.

You should always use appropriate cothing when your are pressure washing.
Always use eye protection googles as the pressurized water can dislodge small debris which will fly at high velocity.
Never use your pressure washer in bare feet or sandals. Wear rubber boots. If you are using a gas-powered
washer, you should wear hearing protection as they are very noisy.

careful when using an electric pressure washer. Never use
an extension cord as it will decrease the effectiveness of the
GFCI. Never spray with water an electrical outlet. You should
inspect the power cord before each use and not use it if it's
damaged. Electric shock can occur if the safety instructions
are not followed.

any kind.

The spray of a pressure washer is strong enough to cause wounds and injuries.
Never put any part of your body in the sream. Never point the water jet to people
or objects. Make sure the spray gun is pointing in a safe direction when you
begin and end a session.
Hold the spray gun with two hands when pulling the trigger for the first time until you get used to the 'kick back'
effect. Always use the trigger safely lock when you are not using the washer. At the end of a session, when the
power washer has been turned off, pull the trigger to discharge the remaining pressure.
