Illustration

Mount loose parts delivered with appliance

prior to start-up.

According to the applicable regula-

tions, the appliance must never be

used on the drinking water supply

without a system separator. Use a

suitable system separator manufactured by

KÄRCHER; or, as an alternative, a system

separator as per EN 12729 Type BA. Water

flowing through a system separator is consid-

ered non-drinkable.

Note: Impurities in the water can damage the

high-pressure pump and accessories. For

protection, the use of the KÄRCHER water fil-

ter (optional accessory, order no. 4.730-059)

is recommended.

Observe regulations of water supplier.

For connection values, see type plate/techni-

cal data.

Î Use a fibre-reinforced water hose (not in-

cluded) with a standard coupling. (Mini-

mum diameter 1/2 inch (13 mm),

minimum length 7.5 m).

Illustration

Î Screw the coupling element (supplied) to

the water connection on the appliance.

Î Push the water supply hose onto the cou-

pling unit, then connect it to the water sup-

ply.

Illustration

Î Fill fuel tank with heating oil or diesel.

ƽ Danger

Risk of explosion! Only refill diesel oil or light

fuel oil. Unsuitable fuels, e.g. petrol, are not to

be used.

Caution

Below exterior temperatures of 6°C, only Win-

ter diesel must be used, as there might be

problems with operating due to the flocking of

diesel components.

The fuel tank must be sufficiently filled, even

during cold water operation. If the fuel tank is

empty, the fuel pump will run dry and be de-

stroyed.

Illustration

Î Connect the high pressure hose to the

high pressure connection of the appli-

ance.

Illustration

Î Push the spray lance into the trigger gun

and fasten it by turning it through 90°.

Illustration

Î Completely open the water tap.

Illustration

Î Insert the mains plug into the socket.

Important instruction: Black water can build

up in the heating coil if the appliance is not

used for extended periods of time. Therefore,

we recommend rinsing the appliance first

without the spray lance attached prior to star-

tup, until clear water is emitted from the hand

spray gun. For this, turn the appliance on us-

ing the appliance switch. Discharge the water

from the rinsing process into the public sewer

system.

ṇ Danger

The trigger gun is subjected to a recoil force

when the water jet is discharged. Make sure

that you have a firm footing and are also hold-

ing the trigger gun and spray lance firmly.

Caution

Dry runs lasting longer than two minutes lead

to damages to the high pressure pump. If the

appliance does not build up pressure within

two minutes, switch it off and proceed as in-

structed in the Chapter "Help with faults".

Illustration

Î Turn on the appliance “I/ON”.

Illustration

Î For hot water operation, also switch on

the appliance switch for burner operation.

Important instruction: If there is air in

the fuel line (with new appliances or after

operating with an empty tank), it can take

up to 5 minutes until the burner starts.

Illustration

Î Unlock the lever on the trigger gun.
