Intended use
The power scrubber PS 30 Plus can be used with all
Kärcher Home & Garden pressure washers manufac-
tured in 1992 or later, up to a pressure of 18 MPa
(180 bar / 2600 psi).
For devices manufactured up to 1991, an additional
adapter is required (see chapter Accessories and spare
parts).
The power scrubber is ideally suited for high-pressure
cleaning of primarily smooth, outdoor floor areas and
stairs with various different surfaces such as tiles,
stone, concrete, plastic and wood.
Indoor areas such as laundry rooms or garages can al-
so be cleaned as long as they have suitable water drain-
age facilities.
Only use the power scrubber PS 30 Plus in private
households.
Accessories and spare parts
Only use original accessories and original spare parts.
They ensure that the appliance will run fault-free and
safely.
