IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS –
Read First!
Safety Warnings
When using this product, basic
precautions should always be followed:
• Read all the instructions before using
the product.
• Fire hazard! Do not add fuel with the
engine running. Do not operate if fuel
has been spilled. Instead, move the
machine to a different location and
avoid creating sparks.
• Operate and fuel machine in a well
ventilated area, free of devices featuring
an open pilot or flame such as boilers,
water heaters, etc.
• High pressure jets can be dangerous
if subject to misuse. The jet must not
be directed at persons, animals,
electrical devices, or the machine itself.
• Wear safety goggles.
• Do not use acids,
alkalines, solvents, or
any flammable material in this product.
These products can cause physical
injuries to the operator and irreversible
damage to the machine.
• The machine has hot surfaces which can
cause burns. Operate the unit in a safe
environment and away from children.
• Do not allow the high pressure hose to
come into contact with the muffler guard.
• Do not leave the machine running
unattended.
• Learn how to stop the machine and
release pressure quickly. Be thoroughly
familiar with the controls.
• Stay alert — watch what you are doing.
• Do not operate the product when
fatigued or under the influence of
alcohol or drugs.
• Do not stand on unstable surfaces.
Stand with both feet balanced at all times.
• Avoid tipping the machine on its side.
• The Gun Safety Lock PREVENTS
the trigger from accidentally being
engaged. This safety feature DOES
NOT lock trigger in the on position.
Water Supply
(Cold Water Only)
• Water hose must be at least 3/4 inch
in diameter.
• Flow rate of water supply must not fall
below 2.5 GPM (gallons per minute).
• Flow rate can be determined by running
the water for one minute into an empty
5-gallon container.
• The water supply temperature must not
exceed 104°F/40°C.
• Never use the pressure washer to draw
in water contaminated with solvents,
e.g. paint thinners, gasoline, oil, etc.
• Always prevent debris from being
drawn into the unit by using a clean
water source.
We strongly recommend that this high
pressure washer not be left running for
periods of 5 minutes or longer without
the trigger gun being engaged.
This Kärcher high pressure washer is
equipped with thermal protection to
extend the life of your pressure washer.
The thermal protector will automatically
activate at a predetermined high
temperature ejecting hot water before
resetting. This ensures that the pump
does not become damaged.
Caution
• Follow the maintenance instruc-
tions specified in the manual.
• This machine has been designed
for use with cleaning detergents
supplied or recommended by the
manufacturer. The use of other
cleaning detergents may affect
the operation of the machine and
void the warranty.
