Warning
According to the applicable regula-
tions, the appliance must never be
used on the drinking water supply
without a system separator. Use a
suitable system separator manufactured by
KÄRCHER; or, as an alternative, a system
separator as per EN 12729 Type BA. Water
flowing through a system separator is consid-
ered non-drinkable.
Note:
Impurities in the water can damage the
high-pressure pump and accessories. For
protection, the use of the KÄRCHER water fil-
ter (optional accessory, order no. 4.730-059)
is recommended.
Observe regulations of water supplier.
For connection values, see type plate/techni-
cal data.

cluded) with a standard coupling. (Mini-
mum diameter 1/2 inch (13 mm),
minimum length 7.5 m).
Î
Illustration
Screw the coupling element (supplied) to
the water connection on the appliance.
Push the water supply hose onto the cou-
pling unit, then connect it to the water sup-
ply.
This high-pressure cleaner is suited to work
with the KÄRCHER suction hose with back-
flow valve (Optional accessory, order no.

water butts or ponds (see specifications for
max. suction height).
Î
Fill the KÄRCHER suction hose with
backflow valve with water, screw to water
supply and hang into the water butt.
Î
Separate the high pressure hose from the
high pressure connection of the appli-
ance.
Î
Switch the appliance on (I/ON) for a max.
of 2 minutes and wait until the water exits
the high-pressure connection without bub-
bles.
Î
Turn off the appliance "0/OFF".
Caution
Dry runs lasting longer than two minutes lead
to damages to the high pressure pump. If the
appliance does not build up pressure within

structed in the Chapter "Troubleshooting".
