Karcher HD 6-13 C - Manual (Page 18)

– 2
High-pressure jets can be dan-
gerous if improperly used. The
jet may not be directed at persons, animals,
live electrical equipment or at the appliance
itself.
According to the applicable regu-
lations, the appliance must never
be used on the drinking water net
without a system separator. Use a suitable
system separator manufactured by Kärch-
er; or, as an alternative, a system separator
as per EN 12729 Type BA.
Water flowing through a system separator
is considered non-drinkable.
Use this high pressure cleaner exclusively
for
– Cleaning using low pressure jet and de-
tergent (for e.g. for cleaning machines,
cars, buildings, tools),
– For cleaning using high pressure jet
without detergent (for e.g. for cleaning
facades, terraces, garden appliances).
For stubborn dirt, we recommend the use of
the dirt blaster as a special accessory.
Safety devices serve for the protection of
the user and must not be put out of opera-
tion or bypassed with respect to their func-
tion.
– If the lever on the trigger gun is released
the pressure switch turns off the pump,
the high pressure jet is stopped. If the
lever is pulled the pump is turned on
again.
– The overflow valve and pressure switch
are set and sealed at the factory. Set-
ting only by customer service.
While reducing the water supply/quantity
regulation at the pump head, the overflow
valve opens and part of the water flows
back to the pump suck side.
