Electrical Connection

• Check whether the voltage shown on the rating
plate corresponds to that of the power source.
Note:
If you are using an extension cable, it
should always be completely unwound from the
cable drum and have a sufficient cross-sectional
area: 10 m = 1.5 mm², 30m = 2.5 mm²

Water Connection with coupling
• See technical data for connected values.
• Screw the coupling onto the water connection of
the appliance.
• Connect a water supply hose (not supplied) to
the appliance and the water pipe.
Suction
Observe the following if you are drawing water from
an open container:
1. Unscrew the coupling from the water connection
of the appliance, and attach a suction hose
with filter (order no. 4.440-238) directly to the
appliance.
2. Allow the pump to operate without the high-
pressure hose until water appears at the high-
pressure outlet without any more bubbles.
3. Then re-attach the high-pressure hose.
Note:
Dirt in the feed water could lead to the ap-
pliance being damaged. To avoid this risk, we re-
commend fitting a filter. A suitable filter with 3/4"
connection is available under Order No. 6.414-389.
