9.3 Replacing the cutting blades
CAUTION!
Danger of injury due to
the cutting blade
The cutting blades are
very sharp and can cause
cutting injuries.
■ Wear protective gloves.
■ Make sure that parts of
the body do not get into
the cutting blade.
IMPORTANT!
Damage to the appliance
due to incorrect repair
The blade plate can be
damaged by the alignment
of a bent, built-in cutting
blade.
■ Do not align bent cutting
blades.
■ Replace bent cutting
blades by original spare
parts from Kärcher.
Worn or bent cutting blades must be replaced.
1. Switch off the appliance with
ON
OFF
.
2. Put down the appliance with the cutting
blades pointing upwards.
3. Unscrew the fastening screws.
4. Take the cutting blade out of the blade seat.
5. Clean the blade seat with a soft brush.
NOTE
The cutting blades are sharpened along
the entire length and can therefore also
be mounted rotated by 180°, which dou-
bles their runtime.
6. Replacing the cutting blades:
■
If cutting blades have not been rotated
since the initial mounting: Rotate the cut-
ting blades by 180° and insert into the
blade seat again with the sharpened side
pointing towards the appliance, and tight-
en the fastening screws again by hand.
■
If the cutting blades have already been
rotated once since the initial mounting:
Insert new cutting blades into the blade
seat again with the sharpened side point-
ing towards the appliance, and tighten
the new fastening screws by hand.
Note: Only original spare parts from
Kärcher are allowed.
As a rule, the clearer blades do not need to be
replaced.
In case of stubborn dirt that cannot be removed
with a brush, the blade plate must be replaced
because an imbalance can lead to increased
noise levels, greater wear and malfunctions.
