jet may not be directed at persons, animals,
live electrical equipment or at the appliance

According to applicable regula-
tions, the appliance must never be
used on the drinking water net
without a system separator. A suit-
able system separator by KÄRCHER or al-

Water that was flowing through a system
separator is considered non-drinkable.

the water supply, never directly to the appli-
ance!

Safety Devices

Overflow valve with pressure switch
While reducing the water supply/quantity
regulation at the pump head, the overflow
valve opens and part of the water flows
back to the pump suck side.
If the pulling lever on the trigger gun is re-
leased the pressure switch turns off the
pump, the high-pressure jet is stopped. If
the pulling lever is pulled the pump is
turned on again.
The safety valve opens when the permissi-
ble operating pressure is exceeded; water
flows back to the suction side of the pump.
The overflow valve, pressure switch and
safety valve are set and sealed at the fac-
tory.
Setting only by customer service.
Water shortage safeguard
The lack of water fuse in the swimmer res-
ervoir shuts off the engine when the water
supply is insufficient (water pressure too
low).
The pump is thus protected from running
dry.
