What is this? This is a high-pressure washer gun made by FAI or TOP. It shoots water at very high pressure to clean things.

What's happening? The gun’s trigger is too close to the pencil jet nozzle. This can make your hand get too near the strong water stream while using it.

Does this affect me? If you own or use this washer gun in the UK, you could get hurt by the high-pressure water.

What should I do? Stop using it right away. Ask a store or a repair person for help. Talk to a pharmacist or doctor if you get hurt.
