Water connection
Warning
Observe regulations of water supplier.
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 con-
sidered non-drinkable.
Caution
Always connect the system separator to the
water supply, never directly to the appliance!
For connection values refer to technical
specifications
 Connect the supply hose(minimu length 7.5
m, minimum diameter 1/2") to the water
connection point of the machine and at the
water supply point (for e.g. a tap).
Note: The supply hose is not included.
 Open the water supply.
Suck in water from vessel
 Screw the suction hose with filter (order
no. 4.440-238.0) to the water connec-
tion.
 Deaerate the appliance:
Unscrew the nozzle.
Switch on the appliance and let it run
until the water exiting is bubble-free.
At the end let the appliance run for ap-
prox. 10 seconds - then switch off. Re-
peat the procedure for a couple of
times.
 Switch off the appliance and fit the noz-
zle again.
Danger
Never suck in water from a drinking water
container. Never suck in liquids which con-
tain solvents like lacquer thinner, petrol, oil
or unfiltered water. The sealings within the
device are not solvent resistant. The spray
mist of solvents is highly inflammable, ex-
plosive and poisonous.

Danger
Risk of explosion!
Do not spray flammable liquids.
Note:Risk of blocking. Place the nozzles in
the accessory compartment with their joint
pointing upward.
Danger
Long hours of using the appliance can
cause circulation problems in the hands on
account of vibrations.
It is not possible to specify a generally valid
operation time, since this depends on sev-
eral factors:
Proneness to blood circulation deficien-
–
cies (cold, numb fingers).
Low ambient temperature. Wear warm
–
gloves to protect hands.
A firm grip impedes blood circulation.
–
Continuous operation is worse than an
–
operation interrupted by pauses.
In case of regular, long-term operation of
the device and in case of repeated occur-
rence of the symptoms (e.g. cold, numb fin-
gers) please consult a physician.
High pressure operation
Note: The appliance is equipped with a
pressure switch. The motor starts up only
when the lever of the pistol is pulled
 Roll off the high pressure hose totally
from the hose drum.
 Set the appliance switch to "I".
 Unlock the hand-spray gun and pull the
lever of the gun.
 Set working pressure and flow rate
through turning (rungless) at the pres-
sure- and amount regulation (B) (+/-).
