SHUTTING DOWN & CLEAN-UP

Initial Use

All Kärcher pumps ship with oil already inside direct

from the factory. There is no need to add oil.

Pump Inspection

You should routinely make a visual inspection of

the pressure washer’s pump. If you notice oil leak-

ing around the pump seals, you should take the

pressure washer to a Kärcher-Authorized Service

Center for repair. (You can locate a service center

in your area online at: www.karcher-service.com).

Pump Maintenance

The pump on your Kärcher pressure washer does

not require maintenance. Any attempts to service

or alter the pump may damage your pressure

washer and void your product warranty.

Carry out maintenance tasks for the engine accord-

ing to the specifi cations provided in the operating

instructions provided by engine manufacturer.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

1:

Disconnect all water connections.

2:

Turn on the machine for a few seconds, until

the water which had remained in the pump

exits, turn off immediately.

3: Do not allow high pressure hose to become

kinked.

4: Store the machine and accessories in a

room which does not reach freezing tempera-

tures. DO NOT store near furnace or other

sources of heat as it may dry the pump seals.

CAUTION

Failure to follow the above directions will

result in damage to the pump assembly and

accessories and will void the warranty.

It is highly recommended to use Kärcher's

Pump Guard (part number 9.558-998.0) be-

fore winter storage and during the cleaning

season to protect the pump from freezing and

premature wear.
