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 considered 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 connec-
tion.
 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. Re-
peat 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) all of the safety provi-
sions and operating instructions detailed in
this manual must be observed.
ƽ
Danger
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).
– Low ambient temperature. Wear warm
gloves to protect hands.
– 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.
Caution
Clean engines only at places with correspond-
ing oil separators (environmental safety).
Risk of blocking. Place the nozzles in the
accessory compartment with their joint
pointing upward.
Note
The appliance is equipped with a pressure
switch. The motor starts up only when the
lever of the pistol is pulled.

Roll off the high pressure hose totally
from the hose drum.
 Set the appliance switch to "I".
 Unlock the hand-spray gun and pull the
lever of the gun.
 Only HD 6/13.... Set working pressure
