When the appliance is delivered, the HP hose

and trigger gun are not attached, this prevents

buckling. Please mount these before using the

appliance for the first time.

Î Push out the safety clip in the trigger gun us-

ing e.g. a small screwdriver.

Î Join HP hose and trigger gun together.

Î Push clip in until it engages and check that it

is securely fastened by pulling on the HP

hose.

Î Remove cable tie and unroll HP hose

For connection values, see type plate/technical

data.

Observe regulations of water supplier.

Î Use a fibre-reinforced hose (not included)

with a standard coupling: - Minimum diame-

ter, 1/2 inches (13 mm). - Minimum length,

7.5 m.

Î Screw the coupling unit (supplied) to the wa-

ter connection on the appliance.

Î Push the water supply hose onto the cou-

pling unit, then connect it to the tap.

ṇ Caution

Never operate the high-pressure cleaner when

the tap is turned off as dry running will damage

the HP pump.

If the water supply is not clean, the Kärcher water

filter must be used (special accessory - order No.

4.730-059).

The appliance is not suited for use in

the drinking water supply network. It is

necessary to install a suitable system

separator from Kärcher, if the device is

to be used in the drinking water supply network.

When fitted with the appropriate accessories,

this high-pressure cleaner can draw in surface

water, e.g. from water butts or ponds (max. suc-

tion height 0.5 m).

Î Use the Kärcher water filter to protect the HP

pump and accessories (special accessories,

order no. 4.730-059). This filter removes dirt

from incoming water.

Î As the standard coupling system is not suita-

ble for use in suction mode, the Kärcher suc-

tion hose with integrated filter should be used

instead (special accessory, order no. 4.440-

238) and suspended inside the water butt.

Î Remove air from appliance before operation:

Switch on the appliance when the HP hose is

not connected and run it until the water which

discharges from the HP outlet is free of bub-

bles. Switch off appliance and connect HP

hose.

Note: Fill suction hose with water before use,

this will help ventilate the pump of air.

Î Screw HP hose on to HP outlet on appliance.

Î Push the appropriate spray lance on to the

trigger gun and fasten it by turning it to the

right through 90°.

Î Open tap.

Î Plug in mains plug.

Î Set main switch to “I/ON”.

Î Press safety catch on the trigger gun to re-

lease it and pull lever.
