Operation with hot water
DANGER
Hot water
Risk of scalding
Avoid contact with hot water.
1. Set the power switch to the desired work tempera-
ture (max. 98 °C). The burner is switches on.
Setting the working pressure and flow rate
DANGER
Danger of a loose spray lance
Risk of injury
Take care to ensure that the spray lance screw connec-
tion does not release when adjusting the pressure/
quantity control.
1. Adjust the working pressure and flow rate by turning
(variable) the pressure/quantity regulator on the
high-pressure gun (+/-).
Operation with detergent
ATTENTION
Danger from unsuitable detergents
Risk of damage
Do not use any unsuitable detergents that can damage
the device or the object to be cleaned.
●
Use detergents sparingly to conserve the environ-
ment.
●
Observe the recommended dosage and instructions
provided with the detergents.
●
Only detergents that have been approved by the de-
vice manufacturer may be used.
●
Kärcher detergents ensure fault-free operation. Ask
us for a consultation, request our catalogue or our
detergent information sheets.
1. Hang the detergent suction hose in a container with
detergent.
2. Set the detergent dosing valve to the desired con-
centration.
Interrupting operation
1. Close the high-pressure gun.
Note
When the high-pressure gun is closed, the motor contin-
ues to run at idling speed.
2. Switch off the motor in the case of longer interrup-
tions (several minutes).
3. Actuate the high-pressure gun until the device is
completely depressurised.
4. Secure the high-pressure gun with the safety latch
against unintentional opening.
After operation with detergent
1. Set the detergent dosing valve to "0".
2. Flush the device clean for at least 1 minute with the
high-pressure gun open.
Switching off the device
DANGER
Hot water hazard
Risk of scalding
After operation with hot water, the device must be oper-
ated with an opened gun with cold water for at least 2
minutes.
Note
After operation with salty water (seawater) rinse the de-
vice with tap water and an open high-pressure gun for
at least 2-3 minutes.
ATTENTION
Stopping the motor at full load
Risk of damage
Never switch off the motor at full load with the high-pres-
sure gun open.
1. Set the power switch to the "Burner off" position.
2. Close the high-pressure gun. The motor regulates to
idle speed.
3. Turn the key switch on the motor to "OFF" and close
the fuel cock.
4. Close the water inlet.
5. Actuate the high-pressure gun until the device is
completely depressurised.
6. Secure the high-pressure gun with the safety latch
against unintentional opening.
7. Unscrew the water supply hose from the device.
Frost protection
ATTENTION
Frost hazard
Destruction of the device through freezing water
Store the device that has not been completely drained
of water in a frost-free place.
If frost-free storage is not possible, the water must be
drained off and the device flushed with antifreeze.
1. Unscrew the water supply hose and the high-pres-
sure hose.
2. Unscrew the supply line at the boiler base and allow
the heating coil to drain.
3. Allow the device for run for a maximum of 1 minute
until the pump and lines are empty.
4. Pour a commercially available antifreeze into the
float tank. Observe the handling instructions of the
anti-freeze manufacturer when doing this.
5. Switch on the device (without burner) until the de-
vice is completely flushed.
Note
The antifreeze also provides a certain degree of corro-
sion protection.
Storage
몇

Failure to observe the weight
Risk of injury and damage
Be aware of the weight of the device during storage.
Transport
ATTENTION
Improper transportation
Risk of damage
Protect the trigger of the high-pressure gun from dam-
age.
몇
CAUTION
Failure to observe the weight
Risk of injury and damage
Be aware of the weight of the device during transporta-
tion.
1. When transporting the device in vehicles, secure it
