Safety instruction for high-pressure cleaners
Before start-up please read these instructions !
Before using the machine please read the
operating instructions for your unit and comply in
particular with these safety instructions.
The warning and information signs attached to
the unit provide important information for safe
operation.
Apart from the information in the operating
instructions comply with the general safety
regulations and regulations for the prevention of
accidents.
Power supply
The voltage indicated on the rating plate must
correspond to the voltage of the power source.
We recommend that this equipment is only
connected into a socket which is protected by a
circuit-breaker that would be actuated by a 30
mA residual current.
Only use or replace power supply cables for this
unit which correspond to the types indicated by
the manufacturer. See the operating instructions
for the order no. and types.
If the plug is damaged, pay attention to the
following: Plugs and sockets confirming to BS
4243 or BS 196 should be used wherever
practicable. Domestic pattern plugs to BS 546
should not be used. The wiring of the plug should
leave more slack in the earth continuity conductor
than in the other cores, so that it is not the first
core to be pulled out of its terminal should the
cord grip fail. Plugs which have good grips
capable of maintaining a firm hold on the cable
sheath should be selected. In general, additional
means should be provided to relieve stress on
cable terminations in the plug. For example,
additional cable clamps should be fitted or a
substantial chain could be used to tether the
machine to a fixed point. Plugs and sockets
situated near the work site or outdoors should
be to class IP 55 of BS 5490 to provide adequate
protection against ingress of water, etc. and cable
entries require effective sealing. Rubber shrouds
should be provided over cable glands. Drip-proof
(class IP X2 of BS 5490) plugs and sockets to BS
4343 are suitable for use indoors where the plug
2
is away from the water spray area where the
appliance is in use.
Never touch the mains plug with wet hands.
Do not run over, crush or pull the power supply
cable or extension lead, otherwise it may be
damaged. Protect the cable from heat, oil and
sharp edges.
The extension lead must have a cross section in
accordance with the operating instructions and
be protected against splashed water. The
connection must not be in water.
When replacing couplings on the power supply
cable or extension lead the spray water guard
and mechanical stability must remain in tact.
Water supply
Comply with the regulations of your water supply
company .
All connecting hoses must have properly sealed
joints.
The high-pressure hose must not be damaged
(danger of bursting). A damaged high-pressure
hose must be replaced immediately. Only use
hoses and connections recommended by the
manufacturer.

Safety instruction for high-pressure cleaners
Before start-up please read these instructions !
Application
Before use, check that the unit and operating
equipment are in perfect condition and are safe
to operate. Do not use the unit if it is not in perfect
condition.
Never draw in solvent-containing liquids,
undiluted acids or solvents! This includes petrol,
paint thinners and heating oil. The sprayed vapour
is highly flammable, explosive and toxic; also
acetone, undiluted acids and solvents as these
corrode the materials used on the unit.
The appropriate safety regulations must be
observed when using the unit in dangerous areas
(e.g. petrol stations). It is forbidden to operate
the unit in potentially explosive locations.
The unit must be placed on a solid base.
Only use detergents which have been approved/
recommended by the manufacturer and comply
with the application, disposal and warning
instructions of the detergent manufacturers.
All current-conducting components in the working
area must be protected against splashed water.
The gun trigger must not be jammed in position
during operation.
Suitable protective clothing must be worn if
necessary to protect against splashing from some
parts.
Never direct the water jet at people, animals, the
unit or electric components.
Vehicle tyres/tyre valves may only be cleaned
from a minimum distance of 30 cm, otherwise the
vehicle tyre/tyre valve could be damaged by the
high-pressure jet. The first indication of this is a
discoloration of the tyre. Damaged vehicle tyres/
tyre valves can be deadly dangerous.
Materials containing asbestos and other materials
which contain substances which are hazardous
to your health must not be sprayed.
Operation
The operator must use the unit in accordance
with the regulations. He/she must take local
conditions into account and be aware of other
people, especially children, when operating the
unit.
The unit may only be used by persons who have
read and understood the Operating Instructions.
Any queries should be directed to your local
dealer.
The unit must not be operated by children or
juveniles (danger of accidents due to incorrect
use of the unit).
The unit must never be left unsupervised while
the motor is running.
The water jet from the high-pressure nozzle
produces a recoil on the gun. Y ou should therefore
hold the gun and spray lance firmly.
Maintenance
Switch off the unit prior to all cleaning and
maintenance work and before replacing
components. Pull out the mains plug if the unit is
mains-operated.
Repairs may only be carried out by authorized
customer service centres or by specialists in this
field who are familiar with all the relevant safety
regulations.
Accessories and spare parts
Only use accessories and spare parts which have
been approved by the manufacturer. Original
accessories and spare parts guarantee that the
unit can be operated safely and without any
breakdowns.

Purpose
- Use the appliance to clean machines, vehicles, buildings, tools etc.
- Clean facades, terrasses, garden equipment etc. without detergent only with the
high-pressure spray.
- Cleaning with the use of a high-pressure cleaner brings an 85% reduction in the
consumption of fresh water.
- Cleaning tasks which produce waste water mixed with oil – e.g. when washing
engines or the undersides of vehicles – should only be carried out at a specific
washing point that is equipped with an oil separator.

Starting
•Do not simply discard the
packing materials with the
house-hold waste. Take the
packing materials to the
appropriate collection areas
for recycling.
•
Impurities in the intake water
damage the pump.
this we expressly urge you to
use the Kärcher water filter
(order no. 4.730-059).
•The operation of the highpressure cleaner with a closed
water supply line causes
damage to the cylinder head
unit.
Please never operate the
high-pressure cleaner with a
closed water supply tap.
•If you are using an extension
cable, it should always be
completely unwound from the
cable drum and have a
sufficient cross-sectional area
(10m =1,5mm²; 30m =2,5mm²).
To prevent

•To avoid any risk of damage
to the surface beeing cleaned,
when the machine is in use, it
is recommended that a minimum distance of 300 mm be
kept between the surface and
the spray nozzle.
The machine should not be
used to clean surfaces that
are already damaged or worn
e.g. flaking or scratched
paintwork, crumbling brickwork or concrete etc.
