.
n
Set the detergent metering valve to the
desired concentration.
n
Use detergents sparingly out of
consideration for the environment.
Proportions of detergent to be used and
accompanying instructions should be
noted carefully.
n
Kärcher cleaning agents guarantee
trouble-free operation. Please seek
advice or ask for our catalogue of
information sheets on cleaning agents.
n
Only the cleansing agents, which have
been approved by the appliance
manufacturer can be used. Unsuitable
detergents may harm the operator and
the object which is to be cleaned.
Recommended cleaning methods:
n
Step 1: Loosen dirt.
Spray on detergent sparingly and leave
to react for 1–5 minutes.
n
Step 2: Remove dirt.
Spray off (rinse off) the loosened dirt
using the high-pressure spray.
n
After operating the unit with detergent,
set the detergent metering valve to “0”
and, with the handgun open, flush out
the unit for approx. 1 minute.
Interrupting the operation
n
If you release the lever of the hand-held
spray gun, the engine continues running
at idling speed. As a result, the water
circulates within the pump and is heated.
If the cylinder head on the pump reaches
the maximum permitted temperature
(80 °C), the safety thermostat on the
cylinder head switches the engine off.
When the temperature of the cylinder
head has dropped below 50 °C, the unit
can be restarted.
n
If working with water under pressure
from the water mains, the cooling-down
process can be accelerated:
– Pull the lever of the hand-held spray
gun for approx. 2–3 minutes to allow
the flowing water to cool the cylinder
head.
– Then restart the engine.
Switching the unit off
n
After operating with saline water
(seawater), open the hand gun and flush
the unit with tap water for at least 2–3
minutes.
n
Set the interruption switch on the engine
to “OFF” and close the fuel shut-off
valve.
n
Close the water inlet and screw the
water inlet hose off the unit.
n
Retract lever of the hand-held spray gun
until the cleaner is without pressure.
n
Safeguard the handgun lever with the
safety latch to prevent unintentional
actuation of the handgun.
