Electrical Connection
!
The appliance may only be connected to an elec-
trical connection that was performed by an elec-
trician according to IEC 60364.
!
Only connect the appliance to alternating cur-
rent. The voltage must comply with the voltage
specified on the typeplate.
!
Minimum fuse protection of the socket 10 A
(delay-action fuse).
!
To avoid electric accidents, we recommend to
use sockets with a series connected residual
current operated device (rated breaking current
max. 30 mA).
!
Warning:
Inappropriate extension lines may be
dangerous. If you work outside, only use exten-
sion lines that are approved and specifically la-
belled and provide of a sufficient conductor
cross section:
1 to 10 m: 1.5 mm²
10 to 30 m: 2.5 mm²
!
The plug and the coupling of an extension line
must be waterproof.
!
Always unwind the extension line completely
from the cable drum.
!
Never use defect connection or extension lines!
If the connection line is damaged, it must be re-
placed with a special connection line that is
available from the manufacturer or his customer
service.
!
Please make sure that the connection or exten-
sion lines are not damaged by being ran over,
pulled or dragged. Protect the connection lines
from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
!
Never touch the mains plug and the socket with
wet hands.
!
The connection between connection line and ex-
tension line must not lie in the water.
!
All current-carrying components within the wor-
king area must be jet-proof.
Water connection
Please observe the provisions of the local water
supply company.
See the typeplate or the section ”Technical Data”
for the connection values.
!
Only use supply hoses (not included in the deli-
very) with the following dimensions:
– minimum length 7.5 m
– minimum diameter ½‘‘
!
Impurities in the intake water damage the pump.
To prevent this we expressly urge you to use the
Kärcher water filter (order no. 4.730-059).
