Explanatory symbols Explanatory symbols used in the operating manual Failure to observe this note may entail environmental damage Note on the use of the machine that failure to adhere to the instructions may cause excessive wear or total breakdown of the K 1050 TS T. Warning! Failure to observe this note may result in serious injuries! Explanatory symbols affixed to the high pressure cleaner In case of improper use, the high pressure jet can be very dangerous. Do not direct jet at persons, animals or active electrical equipment or the machine itself. The unit may not be connected directly to the public drinking water supply network.

General rules Range of application Use machine for cleaning tasks with high pressure water jet and detergents or with high pressure water jet without detergents only. The high pressure cleaner is designed for use in private environment only. Environmental, refuse disposal and water protection regulations must be observed! Inspections The machine must be inspected according to the “Guidelines for Liquid Spray Devices” at least once every 12 months by a qualified person, to ensure that continued safe operation is guaranteed. The results of the inspection are to be recorded in writing. This may be done in any form. High pressure cleaners used for commercial purposes have to be checked by a qualified person at least every 12 months! Accident prevention The machine is designed for accidents to be impossible if used correctly. The operator is to be notified of the risk of injury from hot machine parts and the high pressure water jet. The “Guidelines for Liquid Spray Devices” must be complied with. Oil leakage If oil leaks contact your nearest after-sales service (dealer) at once. Failure to observe this instruction may cause damage to the environment and/or transmission gearbox.

Safety precautions Persons operating the machine should wear the necessary protective clothing, i.e. waterproof clothing, rubber boots, safety goggles, headwear etc. It is prohibited to use the machine in close vicinity to people lacking suitable protective clothing!

Do not spray against matter containing asbestos or other hazardous substances! Never spray liquids containing solvents like varnish solvents, petrol, oil or similar liquid! Due to the high pressure jet, damage may occur on the objects to be cleaned, e.g. car tires; therefore, a minimum distance of 30 cm is to be kept. Prior to putting the high pressure cleaners into operation, check its components (HP hose, power supply cables, safety trigger gun) for any damage. Replace defect or damaged components! The high pressure cleaner is to be properly used. The user is required to adhere to local requirements and to watch out for any persons in the danger zone! When using high pressure water for cleaning, make sure that there is a clearly noticeable recoil effect on the lance. Therefore ensure a firm footing (see chapter „Technical Data“) Apply the safety catch on the spray gun after each use in order to prevent unintentional spraying!

Safety notes - This is prohibited! Never allow children or untrained persons to use the high pressure cleaner! Never direct the water jet at the machine itself! The machine may not be placed within reach of the water jet spray mist! Never direct the water jet at power sockets or any other electrical installations! Within the working area, all live parts are to be protected from both water jet and spray mist.

Safety notes - This is prohibited! Never direct the water jet at people or animals!

Never direct the high pressure jet at yourself or other persons, not even to clean clothing or shoes. Only use power cables which are in perfect working order! Do not damage or improperly repair cables (tearing, squeezing, running over,...). Never pull the high pressure hose if it has formed kinks or “nooses”! Never pull the hose over sharp edges!

Functional details Please note - important Lack of water Lack of water occurs more often than you probably believe. The more powerful a high-cleaner is the greater is the danger that a lack of water occurs. If there is only an insufficient amount of water available, cavitation (water-gas mixture) arises inside the pump, which is normally noticed too late or even not at all. The pump will be destroyed. Please check the available quantity of water by filling a bucket with liter scale for one minute. A minimum water quantity of 7.5 l/min is needed for the high pressure cleaner to operate. If the metered quantity of water is too small, you have to use a different water connection, guaranteeing the necessary output. Lack of water leads to an accelerated wear of the joints (guarantee void). Never let the pump run dry for more than 20 seconds. Water supply Please pay attention to the regulations of your waterworks company! In accordance with DIN EN 61770, the machine may not be directly connected to the public drinking water supply lines. A brief connection however is permissible according to DVGW (German Association for Gas and Water Affairs) if a non-return valve with tube ventilator (Kränzle order no. 41.016 4) is built into the water supply. Once the water has passed through the non-return valve it is no longer considered as drinking water. Also indirect connection to the public drinking water supply lines is permissible by way of free emission in accordance with EN 61 770; e.g. by using a reservoir with a float valve. Direct connection to a non-drinking water supply line is permissible.

Functional details Insufficient quantity of electricity If there are too many collectors in your proximity connected to the network at the same time, the available voltage and the current intensity may decline. Consequently the motor of the high pressure cleaner does not start or even blows. The power supply may also be insufficient if the power cable is too long or too thin. If extension cables are too long, this may lead to a voltage drop causing malfunctions or start-up difficulties. Check the line fusing and have the voltage and the available current intensity checked by an expert in case of uncertainty. Electrical connection The machine is supplied with a 5 meter electrical power cable with plug. The mains plug must be fitted to a standard grounded socket with a 30mA residual current operated device. The socket must be protected with a 16A fuse on the mains side. When using an extension cable, this must have an earthed lead which is properly connected to the socket. The conductors in the extension cable must have a minimum cross section of 1.5 mm². Plug connections must be of a spray-proof design, and may not be located on a wet floor. With extension cables of more than 10 m the minimum cross section must be 2.5 mm! When using a cable drum, always keep the cable wound as far as possible.

Functional details Water and cleaning / care products system Water can be connected at mains pressure to the high pressure pump. The water is then forced under pressure by the high pressure pump to the lance. The high pressure jet is formed by the nozzle at the end of the lance. Environmental, refuse disposal and water protection regulations must be observed! Lance with trigger gun with safety catch The machine can only be operated when the trigger of the trigger gun with safety catch is pulled. When the trigger is pulled, the trigger gun opens. The liquid is then pumped to the nozzle. The spray pressure increases and quickly reaches the selected operating pressure. When the trigger is released, the trigger gun closes and any further spraying of liquid from the lance is stopped. The pressure thrust serves to close the start/stop system, thus causing interruption of the energy supply to the motor. Owing to this innovative system the high pressure hose is relieved and enables higher durability of the hose. Opening the gun causes the start/stop system to open, the electric motor is automatically restarted and the pump starts to transfer the water on to the high pressure jet where the cleaning jet is generated. The trigger gun with safety catch is a safety device. Repairs should only be performed by qualified persons. Should replacement parts be required, use only components authorized by the manufacturer. Replacements, repairs, new adjustments and sealing should only be performed by qualified persons. Prior to putting the machine into operation make sure that all safety instructions be observed.

Functional details Motor overload protection The motor is protected against overloading by means of an overload protection device included in the motor coil. In the event of overloading or jamming, the excess temperature cut-out serves to switch off the motor. In case of repeated switching off the motor by means of the excess temperature cut-out, make sure to eliminate the cause of the failure. Replacements and inspection work should only be performed by qualified persons when the machine is disconnected from the power supply, i.e. with plug pulled out from the electrical socket. High pressure hose and spray device The high pressure hose and spray device which are part of the K 1050 TS T equipment, are made of high quality material and engineered to conform with the operating conditions of the high pressure cleaner and are duly labeled. If replacement parts are required, only such parts that are authorized by the manufacturer may be used. The warranty is automatically void if spare parts of third-party providers are used! The high pressure hose and spray device must be connected in a pressure-tight manner (without leakage). The high pressure hose may not be driven over, pulled excessively, or twisted. The hose may under no circumstances be pulled over sharp edges. Defective high pressure hoses must not be repaired (acc. to DIN 20022) but have to be replaced by new hoses approved by the manufacturer.

Putting into operation

Use supplied screws to fasten the lower cable retractor of the electric cable at the place provided on the frame.

Position machine. Place crank on the hexagon and use supplied washer and screw to fasten.

Move high pressure cleaner to the job site. The Kränzle 1050 TS T is a movable machine with sturdy trolleys ideally suited for difficult terrain and stairs.

Owing to its light weight and handy size, the Kränzle 1050 TS T can be easily carried by two persons. When carrying the high pressure cleaner, make sure to bear in mind the weight of the machine, see technical data. Neither set up or operate the K 1050 TS T in rooms where there is a risk of fire or explosion nor put it into puddles. Do not use the machine under water. If, none the less, the machine is operated in a hazardous area, the applicable safety regulations are to be observed.

Small repairs - do it yourself! Problem: No water from nozzle although motor is running.

Cause: Most likely the nozzle is blocked. No or very little water from the lance. Proceeding: Switch off the cleaner. Pull plug from the socket. Operate trigger gun with safety catch several times to decrease the pressure. Unscrew trigger gun and lance first, then rinse high pressure gun to remove possible soiling. Check water inlet filter for soiling. If the problem still exists, take wire (paper clip) and push through nozzle opening. If cleaning by means of a wire is not successful, replace lance. Pull plug from socket prior to starting any repair work!

Small repairs - do it yourself! Problem: After closing of the trigger gun with safety catch the machine keeps switching on and off. Possible cause no.1: Leakage. Having closed the trigger gun with safety catch, the HP cleaner must shut down. Failure to shut down may be caused by leakage in the pump, the pressure switch, the high pressure hose or the trigger gun with safety catch. Proceeding: Check connections from the HP cleaner to the high pressure hose and from the hose to the trigger gun and also the connection between lance and trigger gun for tightness. Switch off the cleaner. Shortly press the trigger of the trigger gun with safety catch to decrease the pressure. Unscrew HP hose, trigger gun with safety catch and lance and check the O-rings. If the O-rings are damaged they have to be replaced. In case of a leakage there is no guarantee for possible consequential damages.

Small repairs - do it yourself! Problem: After closing of the trigger gun with safety catch the machine keeps switching on and off. Possible cause no. 2: The non-return valve is defective. Proceeding: Switch off the HP cleaner and pull plug from socket. Stop water supply. Disassemble pipe connection to hose drum. Unscrew pump outlet. Remove check body and check O-Ring for soiling or damage. Also check seal seat inside pump housing for soiling or damage. If sealing rings are defective replace O-rings at once. There is no guarantee if the pump is damaged by defective O-rings due to air induction or lack of water (cavitation).

Small repairs - do it yourself! Problem: Irregular jet from nozzle. Cause: Most likely the valves are soiled or sticky. The water from the lance comes in squirts. The HP hose vibrates. Proceeding: Unscrew all 6 valves, one after the other (hexagonal brass screws, 3 in a row, vertically and horizontally) Take out valve body (with green or red plastic coating) and O-ring by means of needle nose pliers. Check O-ring for damage. In case of a damage the O-ring has to be replaced. Take a wire (paper clip) and clean valves under running water. Do not forget the O-ring during reassembly!
