Screw the supplied coupling element to
the water connection on the appliance.
Water supply
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 consid-
ered non-drinkable.
Caution
Always connect the system separator to the
water supply, never directly to the appliance!
Note: Impurities in the water can damage the
high-pressure pump and accessories. For
protection, the use of the KÄRCHER water fil-
ter (optional accessory, order no. 4.730-059)
is recommended.
Water supply from mains
Observe regulations of water supplier.
For connection values, see type plate/techni-
cal data.

Use a fibre-reinforced water hose (not includ-
ed) with a standard coupling. (Minimum diam-
eter 1/2 inch (13 mm), minimum length 7.5 m).

Push the water supply hose onto the coupling
unit, then connect it to the water supply.
Drawing in water from open reservoirs
This high-pressure cleaner is suited to work
with the KÄRCHER suction hose with back-
flow valve (Optional accessory, order no.
4.440-238) to draw in surface water, e.g. from
water butts or ponds (see specifications for
max. suction height).


Fill the KÄRCHER suction hose with
backflow valve with water, screw to water
supply and hang into the water butt.

Separate the high pressure hose from the
high pressure connection of the appliance.

Switch the appliance on (I/ON) for a max.
of 2 minutes and wait until the water exits
the high-pressure connection without bub-
bles.

Turn off the appliance "0/OFF".
Caution
Dry runs lasting longer than two minutes lead
to damages to the high pressure pump. If the
appliance does not build up pressure within
two minutes, switch it off and proceed as in-
structed in the Chapter "Troubleshooting".
