correctly.
According to applicable regulations, the ap-
pliance must never be used on the drinking
water net without a system separator. A suit-
able system separator by KÄRCHER or al-
ternatively a system separator according to
EN 12729 type BA must be used.
Water that was flowing through a system separator is
considered non-drinkable.
ṇ CAUTION
Always connect the system separator to the water sup-
ply, never directly to the appliance!
Note: Impurities in the water can damage the high-pres-
sure pump and accessories. For protection, the use of
the KÄRCHER water filter (optional accessory, order
no. 4.730-059) is recommended.
Observe regulations of water supplier.
For connection values, see type plate/technical data.

Use a fibre-reinforced water hose (not included)
with a standard coupling. (Minimum diameter 1/2
inch (13 mm), minimum length 7.5 m).
 Screw the coupling element to the water connec-
tion on the appliance.
 Push the water supply hose onto the coupling unit,
then connect it to the water supply.
This high-pressure cleaner is suited to work with the
KÄRCHER suction hose with backflow valve (Optional
accessory, order no. 4.440-238) to draw in surface wa-
ter, e.g. from water butts or ponds (see specifications for
max. suction height).

Fill the KÄRCHER suction hose with backflow
valve with water, screw to water supply and hang
into the water butt.
 Separate the high pressure hose from the high
pressure connection of the appliance.
 Appliance ventilation.
Let the appliance run when the high-pressure hose
is not connected and run it until the water which dis-
charges from the high-pressure outlet is free of
bubbles. Switch off appliance and reconnect high-
pressure hose.
ṇ CAUTION
Dry running of more than 2 minutes leads to damage of
the high-pressure pump. If the appliance does not build
up pressure within 2 minutes, switch the appliance off
and proceed in accordance with the instructions in
Chapter "Troubleshooting".
ṇ CAUTION
The device is delivered without engine oil. Please fill in
engine oil before using the appliance for the first time.

Fill up the fuel tank and check the oil level.
