Initial startup
1. Place the device on a flat and level surface.
2. For devices with a hose reel:
Completely unwind the
high-pressure hose from the hose reel.
3. For devices without a hose reel:
Unwind the high-
pressure hose completely and eliminate any loops
and twists.
4. Pull the high-pressure hose all the way forwards
through the hose guide.
5. Insert the high-pressure hose into the high-pressure
gun until it audibly latches into place.
Note
Take care to ensure the correct alignment of the nipple.

6. Check for a secure connection by pulling on the
high-pressure hose.
7. Plug the mains plug into a mains socket.
Water supply
For the connection values, see the type plate or chapter
Technical data.
Observe the water distribution company regulations.
ATTENTION
Damage through contaminated water
Contamination in the water can damage the pump and
the accessories.
KÄRCHER recommends using the KÄRCHER water fil-
ter for protection(special accessory, order number
4.730-059).
Connection to the water line
ATTENTION
Hose coupling with Aquastop on the water connec-
tion of the device
Damage to the pump
Never use a hose coupling with Aquastop on the water
connection of the device.
You can use an Aquastop coupling on the tap.
1. Plug the garden hose onto the water connection
coupling.
2. Connect the garden hose to the water line.
3. Open the water tap fully.

Sucking water from open containers
When used with the KÄRCHER suction hose with check
valve (special accessory, order number 2.643-100) this
high-pressure cleaner is suitable for sucking up surface
water, e.g. from rain barrels or ponds (for the maximum
suction height see chapter Technical data).
The water connection coupling is not required for vacu-
uming operation.
1. Fill the suction hose with water.
2. Screw the suction hose onto the device water con-
nection and hang it in a water source (e.g. water
butt).

Operation
ATTENTION
Pump running dry
Damage to the device
If pressure does not build up in the device after 2 min-
utes then switch the device off and proceed according
to the instructions in chapter Troubleshooting guide.
Power Control System
The pressure indicator on the high-pressure gun shows
the currently set pressure level when operating with a
Power Control spray lance.
Note
The sensitivity of materials can vary greatly depending
on age and condition. The recommendations are there-
fore not binding.
Note
When operating with surface cleaner and other acces-
sories, the pressure indicator is not accurate.
High-pressure operation
ATTENTION
Damage to painted or sensitive surfaces
Surfaces can be damaged when the jet is too close to
the surface or an unsuitable spray lance is used.
Maintain a minimum spray distance of 30 cm when
cleaning painted surfaces.
Do not clean car tyres, paint or sensitive surfaces such
as wood with the dirt grinder.
1. Insert a spray lance into the high-pressure gun and
lock it by turning it 90°.
