When the appliance is delivered, the HP hose 
and trigger gun are not attached,  this pre-
vents buckling.   Please mount these before 
using the appliance for the first time.  

Î

Push out the safety clip in the trigger gun 
using e.g. a small screwdriver.

Î

Join HP hose and trigger gun together.

Î

Push clip in until it engages and check that 
it is securely fastened by pulling on the HP 
hose.

Î

Remove cable tie and unroll HP hose

For connection values, see type plate/techni-
cal data.
Observe regulations of water supplier.

Î

Use a fibre-reinforced hose (not included) 
with a standard coupling: - Minimum diam-
eter, 1/2 inches (13 mm). - Minimum 
length, 7.5 m.

Î

Screw the coupling unit (supplied) to the 
water connection on the appliance.

Î

Push the water supply hose onto the cou-
pling unit, then connect it to the tap.

Caution

Never operate the high-pressure cleaner 
when the tap is turned off as dry running will 
damage the HP pump.
If the water supply is not clean, the Kärcher 
water filter must be used (special accessory - 
order No. 4.730-059).
The appliance is not suited for use in 
the drinking water supply network. It 
is necessary to install a suitable sys-
tem separator from Kärcher, if the 
device is to be used in the drinking water sup-
ply network.

When fitted with the appropriate accessories, 
this high-pressure cleaner can draw in surface 
water, e.g. from water butts or ponds (max. 
suction height 0.5 m). 

Î

Use the Kärcher water filter to protect the 
HP pump and accessories (special acces-
sories, order no. 4.730-059). This filter re-
moves dirt from incoming water.
