Before cleaning any surface an in-
conspicuous area should be cleaned
to test spray pattern and distance for
maximum cleaning results.
The Vario Power Spray Wand allows
you to adjust the cleaning pressure.
To clean at maximum pressure, the
wand must be positioned to the high
pressure setting (Max).
For reduced pressure turn the wand
collar in the "Min" direction.
To apply detergent, the wand must
be positioned to the low pressure
setting (Mix).
Detergents can only be applied at low
pressure.
STEP 1:
Install the Vario Power Spray Wand.
Set the spray wand to the low pres-
sure setting (Mix).
STEP 2:
Fill a container with Kärcher deter-
gent. Place the filter end of detergent
siphon tube into the container.
STEP 3:
Turn on the pressure washer (I). Pull
trigger to operate unit. Liquid deter-
gent is drawn into the unit and mixed
with water. Apply detergent to work
area. Do not allow detergent to dry
on surface.
STEP 4:
To rinse, move the VPS out of "Mix"
position and pull trigger to operate unit.
STEP 5:
Cleaning up: Always draw fresh wa-
ter through the detergent tank or si-
phon tube when done to flush any

tion system.
