IV. Application
The high-pressure cleaner HDS 1000 DE is specially designed for use where no electrical connection
is available and where the work requires the use of hot water. The unit is particularly suitable for cleaning
facades, machines and construction-site vehicles in the open air.
Choice of operating pressure
The choice of operating pressure is dependent on the cleaning task in hand. In cases of severe and
encrusted dirt, the highest possible pressure should be used. For tiled walls, pressure should not exceed
50 bar to avoid damaging the grouting.
The operating pressure is dependent on the nozzle and is limited by the switch-off pressure of the
overflow valve as indicated above.
Apart from the working pressure and the distance from the object being cleaned, the form of the jet
determines the effectiveness of the high-pressure jet. The 0° pencil jet has the greatest mechanical
effectiveness and is used, for example, on heavily contaminated machines and parts. In normal cases
a 25° nozzle is used.
The high-pressure cleaner is fitted with a 25° Kärcher power nozzle at the factory. Special applications
may call for the fitting of other nozzles.
Cleaning agent
In accordance with the guidelines laid down for liquid jet cleaners, § 5.4, the only cleaning agents
permitted are those to which the manufacturer of the unit gives approval.
We recommend the use of Kärcher cleaning agents. Unsuitable cleaning agents can damage the high-
pressure cleaner and the object which is to be cleaned.
