Water supply

Caution! Impurities in the intake water damage the

pump. To prevent this we expressly urge you to use

the Kärcher water filter (order no. 4.730-059).

The operation of the high-pressure cleaner with a

closed water supply line causes damage to the cy-

linder head unit. Please never operate the high-pres-

sure cleaner with a closed water supply tap.

The unit can either be supplied from the water main

or from water in an open container.

Water supply from the water main

• Connect a supply hose (not included) to the water

inlet of the unit and to the water supply (e.g. water

tap).

• Open the water supply.

Water supply from an open container

• Unscrew the coupling part for the water inlet.

• Screw the suction hose with filter (not included,

see “Special accessories”) onto the water connection

of the unit.

• Hang the filter in the container.

• Vent the unit before operation.

– Unscrew the high-pressure line at the high-pres-

sure outlet of the unit.

– Switch on the unit and let it run until water free

of bubbles emerges at the high-pressure out-

let.

– Switch off the unit and screw on the high-pres-

sure hose again.

• Turn master switch to “I”.

Switching on

lever.

Switching off

During breaks in work and when leaving the unit secure

it against inadvertent switching on by pressing the

safety button.

Adding the cleaning agent

• Suspend the filter of the detergent suction hose in

detergent reservoir.

After cleaning agent has been added:

• Suspend the filter of the detergent suction hose in

a container of clear water, switch on the unit for

about one minute and flush through.

Recommended cleaning method

1. Spray the cleaning agent on the dry surface spa-

ringly and let it react (but not dry out).

2. Wash off the loosened dirt with the high-pressu-

re jet.

Connect accessories

Depending on the model the following accessories

are either included in the scope of delivery or are

obtainable from specialist dealers (see also “Speci-

al accessories”).

• Exchange the respective accessory with the spray

lance.

Wash brush

for large, smooth surfaces – e.g. on the automobile,

caravan or boat.Cleaning agent can be added.

Rotating wash brush

for gentle and thorough cleaning – e.g. bodywork

and glass surfaces.

Cleaning agent can be added.

Rotary nozzle

for stubborn accumulations of grime – e.g. moss-

covered promenade tiles or facades.

Work without cleaning agent and with the highest

operating pressure.

Finishing operations

• Master switch to “0”.

• Draw out power plug.

Water supplied from the water main

around the handgun.
