Park the appliance on an even surface.

Illustration 

Unwind the high pressure hose completely from the 
hose drum. Hold on to the transport handle during 
this procedure.

Note

: If the hand crank is in its secured position, 

fold it up first.

Insert the mains plug into the socket. 

For connection values, see type plate/technical data.

ATTENTION

Impurities in the water can damage the high-pressure 
pump and the accessories. For protection, the use of 
the KÄRCHER water filter (optional accessory, order 
no. 4.730-059) is recommended.

Observe regulations of water supplier.

ATTENTION

Hose couplings made of metal with aquastop can dam-
age the pump! Please use plastic couplings or KÄRCH-
ER brass couplings.

Illustration 

Screw the coupling element to the water connec-
tion on the appliance.

Attach the water supply hose to the coupling on the 
water connection.

Connect the water supply hose to the water supply.

Completely open the water tap.

Note:

 The max. suction height is 0.5 m.

CLICK FITTINGS MUST NOT BE USED!

KÄRCHER recommends using the suction hose acces-
sory (sold separately) Order no. 9.505-779.0. 

STEP 1:

Connect the suction hose to the water inlet on the 
pressure cleaner and drop the other end into a 
bucket.

Tip

: If you are not using this accessory, coil a hose 

into the bucket and ensure that you only use a 
standard hose clamp to connect to the pressure 
washer.

STEP 2:

Fill up your bucket with water.

STEP 3:

Connect the KÄRCHER power cord to an electricity 
source and turn on at powerpoint. Make sure the 
high pressure nozzle is not connected and turn the 
unit on at the ON/OFF switch. Press the trigger on 
the gun - the unit is ready for use once there is a 
constant water system.

STEP 4:

Connect the high pressure nozzle and press the 
hand trigger to begin cleaning.

ATTENTION

Dry running of more than 2 minutes leads to damage of 
the high-pressure pump. If the appliance does not build 
up pressure within 2 minutes, switch the appliance off 
and proceed in accordance with the instructions in 
Chapter "Troubleshooting".

CAUTION

Keep a distance of at least 30 cm when using the jet for 
cleaning painted surfaces to avoid damage.

ATTENTION

Car tyres, paint or sensitive surfaces such as wood 
should not be cleaned with the dirt blaster, as there is a 
risk of damage.

Illustration 

Push the spray lance into the trigger gun and fasten 
it by turning it through 90°.

Turn on the appliance “I/ON”.

Unlock the lever on the trigger gun.

Pull on the lever of the trigger gun; the device will 
switch on.

Note:

 Release the lever of the trigger gun; the device 

will switch off again. High pressure remains in the sys-
tem.

ATTENTION

Risk of damage to the paintwork
When working with the washing brush, it must be free of 
dirt or other particles.

Push the washing brush into the trigger gun and 
fasten it by a 90° turn.

Note:

 Detergent can only be added when the device is 

operated in low pressure mode.

DANGER

When using detergents, the material data safety sheet 
issued by the detergent manufacturer must be adhered 
to, especially the instructions regarding personal pro-
tective equipment.

Notes regarding the detergent

: The most commonly 

used KÄRCHER detergents can be purchased ready to 
use in their Plug 'n' Clean detergent bottles with locking 
lids. This will make the pesky refilling and filling process-
es redundant.
Illustration 

Remove the lid from the Plug 'n' Clean detergent 
bottle and press the detergent bottle into the deter-
gent connection with the opening facing down.

Illustration 

Adjust the suction volume of the detergent solution 
by means of the dosage regulator for detergents.

Use spray lance with pressure regulation (Vario 
Power).

Turn the spray lance to "Mix" position.

Note:

 This will mix the detergent with the water 

stream.

Spray the detergent sparingly on the dry surface 
and allow it to react, but not to dry.

Spray off loosened dirt with the high pressure jet.
