SERVICING OF A
DOUBLE-INSULATED PRODUCT
WATER SUPPLY
(COLD WATER ONLY)
GROUND-FAULT
CIRCUIT-INTERRUPTER PROTECTION
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 quali-
ed service 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 symbol
may also
be marked on the product.
This pressure washer is provided with a ground-
fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug
of the power-supply cord. This device provides
additional protection from the risk of electric shock.
Should replacement of the plug or cord become
necessary, use only identical replacement parts
that include GFCI protection.
CAUTION
When connecting the water inlet to the water sup-
ply mains, local regulations of your water company
must be observed. In some areas the unit must not
be connected directly to the public drinking water
supply. This is to ensure that there is no feedback
of chemicals into the water supply. Direct connec-
tion via a receiver tank or backfl ow preventer, for
example, is permitted.
Dirt in the feed water will damage the unit. To avoid
this risk, we recommend fi tting a water fi lter.
Garden hose must be at least 1/2 inch or 5/8
inch (13 mm or 16 mm) in diameter.
Flow rate of water supply must not fall below
2 GPM (gallons per minute) (7.6 L/min.).
Flow rate can be determined by running the
water for one minute into an empty 5 gallon
(20 litre) container.
The water supply temperature must not ex-
ceed 40°C/104°F.
Never use the pressure washer to draw in
water contaminated with solvents, e.g. paint
thinners, gasoline, oil, etc.
Always prevent debris from being drawn into
the unit by using a clean water source.

nozzle approximately 6-8 in. (15-20 cm) from the
cleaning surface (distance should increase when
rinsing pin-striping or other sensitive surfaces).
Always clean from top to bottom and from left
to right. For best results, wipe surface dry with a
chamois or soft dry cloth.
(with or without detergent) Pre-rinse cleaning
surface with fresh water. If using detergent or

MANTENIMIENTO DE UN
PRODUCTO CON DOBLE
AISLAMIENTO
SUMINISTRO DE AGUA
(AGUA FRÍA ÚNICAMENTE)
En los productos con doble aislamiento, se propor-
cionan dos sistemas de aislamiento en vez de una
puesta a tierra. No se suministra puesta a tierra en
un producto de doble aislamiento y tampoco debe-
rán añadirse medios de puesta a tierra al producto.
La reparación de un producto de doble aislamiento
requiere de extremos cuidados y conocimiento del
sistema, y debería llevarse a cabo únicamente
por personal cualifi cado. Las piezas de repuesto
de un producto con doble aislamiento deben ser
idénticas a las piezas que reemplazan. Un producto
de doble aislamiento está marcado con las pala-
bras "DOBLE AISLAMIENTO" o "DOBLEMENTE
AISLADO". El símbolo “
también podría estar
marcado sobre este producto.
PROTECCIÓN DEL
INTERRUPTOR DE CIRCUITO CON
FALLA A TIERRA
Esta hidrolavadora a presión se suministra con
un interruptor de circuito con falla a tierra (GFCI,
por sus siglas en inglés) integrado en el enchufe
o cable de alimentación. Este dispositivo pro-
porciona protección adicional contra el riesgo de
shock eléctrico. Si llegara a requerir reemplazar
el enchufe o el cable, use únicamente piezas de
recambio que incluyan una protección GFCI.
PRECAUCIÓN
Al conectar la pieza de acoplamiento para co-
nexión de agua a las tomas de suministro de agua,
deberán observarse las normativas locales de su
compañía de agua. En algunas zonas, la unidad
no debe conectarse directamente a un suministro
de agua potable público. Esto es para asegurar
que no se dé retroalimentación de químicos hacia
el suministro de agua. La conexión directa por
medio de un tanque receptor o un desconector,
por ejemplo, sí está permitida.
La suciedad en el suministro de agua dañará la
unidad. Para evitar este riesgo, recomendamos
acoplar un fi ltro de agua.
El diámetro de la manguera del jardín debe
ser de 1/2 pulgada o 5/8 pulgadas (13 mm o
16 mm).
La tasa del fl ujo del suministro de agua no
debe caer por debajo de 2 GPM (galones por
minuto) (7.6 L/min.).
La tasa de fl ujo se puede determinar dejando
correr el agua durante un minuto dentro de
un contenedor vacío de 5 galones (20 litros).
La temperatura del suministro de agua no
debe exceder 40°C/104°F.
No use nunca la hidrolavadora a presión
para aspirar agua con solventes, por ejemplo
disolventes para pintura, gasolina, aceite, etc.
Evite siempre que la unidad jale restos o
escombros, use siempre una fuente de agua
limpia.
