THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING A KARCHER

PRESSURE WASHER

PLEASE READ THIS LEAFLET CAREFULLY

BEFORE OPERATING YOUR MACHINE.

WHAT IS A PRESSURE WASHER?

A Pressure Washer is essentially a powerful electric motor driving a set
of pistons that force water through a small nozzle, thus creating a
pressurised jet of water. This provides the cleaning power behind the
Karcher Pressure Washer.

A Karcher Pressure Washer can be used for an endless list of applications
around the home and garden. It provides an efficient, economical and
labour saving way of cleaning with excellent results.

All  Karcher  domestic pressure washers are designed to run from a
suitable cold water supply although some models will accept a water inlet
temperature of between 40 °C and 60 °C.

Environmental Comment - Save water with high pressure.

The Karcher Pressure Washer is environmentally friendly enabling you
to reduce your water consumption compared to a normal garden hose.
A definite advantage with a metered water supply

OR

with the added benefit of suction mode, water can be drawn from an
open container such as a water butt.
