Warning
Observe regulations of water supplier.
According to the applicable regula-
tions, the appliance must never be
used on the drinking water supply
without a system separator. Use a
suitable system separator manufactured by
KÄRCHER; or, as an alternative, a system
separator as per EN 12729 Type BA. Water
flowing through a system separator is con-
sidered non-drinkable.
Caution
Always connect the system separator to
the water supply, never directly to the appli-
ance!
For connection values refer to technical
specifications

Connect the supply hose (max length 7.5
m, minimum diameter 1/2“) to the water
connection point of the machine and at
the water supply point (for e.g. a tap).
Note
The supply hose is not included.

Open the water supply.
 Screw the suction hose with filter (order
no. 4.440-238.0) to the water connection.
 Deaerate the appliance:
Unscrew the nozzle.
Switch on the appliance and let it run
until the water exiting is bubble-free.
At the end let the appliance run for ap-
prox. 10 seconds - then switch off. Repeat
the procedure for a couple of times.
 Switch off the appliance and fit the noz-
zle again.

Danger
Risk of explosion!
Do not spray flammable liquids.
If the appliance is used in hazardous areas
(e.g. filling stations) the corresponding
safety provisions must be observed.
Caution
Clean engines only at places with corre-
sponding oil separators (environmental
safety).
ṇ
Warning
Long hours of using the appliance can
cause circulation problems in the hands on
account of vibrations.
It is not possible to specify a generally valid
operation time, since this depends on sev-
eral factors:
– Proneness to blood circulation deficien-
cies (cold, numb fingers).
– A firm grip impedes blood circulation.
– Continuous operation is worse than an
operation interrupted by pauses.
In case of regular, long-term operation of
the device and in case of repeated occur-
rence of the symptoms (e.g. cold, numb fin-
gers) please consult a physician.
Note
The appliance is equipped with a pressure
switch. The motor starts up only when the
lever of the pistol is pulled.

Set the appliance switch to "I".
 Unlock the hand-spray gun and pull the
lever of the gun.
