5 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS product - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Do not use any type of adapter with this product. GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION WARNING ■ This pressure washer is provided with a "ground fault circuit interrupter" (GFCI) built into the plug or the powersupply cord. This device provides additional protection from the risk of electric shock. Should replacement of the ground-fault circuit-interrupter or cord become necessary, use only identical replacement parts. EXTENSION CORDS WARNING ■ Risk of electrocution. Use of an extension cord could cause electric shock or burn, resulting in death or serious injury. ■ Do not use an extension cord with this electric pressure washer. Your electrical circuit receptacle or extension cord may not provide lifesaving protection with a ground fault circuit interrupter. ■ This pressure washer is equipped with a "ground fault circuit interrupter" (GFCI) built into the power supply cord. Do not use an extension cord with this electric pressure washer. INDIVIDUAL BRANCH CIRCUIT WARNING ■ Connect to Individual Branch Circuit Only. An individual branch circuit is an electric circuit designed for powering a single electric device. Running several devices on one electrical circuit may lead to an overload and cause the circuit breaker or fuse to trip. English ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION WARNING - Read and follow all safety precautions on labels and in instruction manual. Failure to follow these instructions can cause serious or fatal injury. - Spray jet can splash back and propel objects at high speed. To reduce the risk of eye injury, always wear goggles that are impact-rated and comply with ANSI Z87 "+". Goggles must also be rated for protection against droplet/splash hazards according to ANSI Z87.1. - Keep bystanders and animals out of the work area. - Always wear hearing protection. - See rating plate for maximum discharge pressure and maximum discharge temperature - use only high pressure hoses and accessories rated for these amounts or above. Use only genuine STIHL replacement parts. - Spray gun produces strong recoil (kickback) opposite to direction of spray. Hold firmly with both hands to reduce the risk of injury from loss of control. - Because of high pressure and water velocity, spray jet is very powerful. To reduce risk of severe lacerations and injection of fluids below the skin, never direct spray jet towards self, other persons or animals. Keep clear of nozzle while machine is operating. Make sure spray jet does not damage object being cleaned. - To reduce risk of fire and explosion, never spray flammable liquids. - To reduce risk of serious or fatal injury from electric shock, never use pressure washer if its power cord is cut, cracked, worn or damaged. Immediately disconnect a damaged cord. - To reduce risk of electrocution and fire, never direct spray jet towards the machine itself, other electrical appliances or equipment, sockets or power cords. Never spray near power source. 0458-001-8621-A 7

GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION
WARNING
This pressure washer is provided with a "ground fault
circuit interrupter" (GFCI) built into the plug or the power-
supply cord. This device provides additional protection
from the risk of electric shock. Should replacement of the
ground-fault circuit-interrupter or cord become necessary,
use only identical replacement parts.
EXTENSION CORDS
WARNING
Risk of electrocution. Use of an extension cord could
cause electric shock or burn, resulting in death or serious
injury.
Do not use an extension cord with this electric pressure
washer. Your electrical circuit receptacle or extension
cord may not provide lifesaving protection with a ground
fault circuit interrupter.
This pressure washer is equipped with a "ground fault
circuit interrupter" (GFCI) built into the power supply cord.
Do not use an extension cord with this electric pressure
washer.
INDIVIDUAL BRANCH CIRCUIT
WARNING
Connect to Individual Branch Circuit Only. An individual
branch circuit is an electric circuit designed for powering a
single electric device. Running several devices on one
electrical circuit may lead to an overload and cause the
circuit breaker or fuse to trip.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION
