According to applicable regula- tions, the appliance must never be used on the drinking water net without a system separator. A suit- able system separator by KÄRCHER or al- ternatively a system separator according to EN 12729 type BA must be used. Water that was flowing through a system separator is considered non-drinkable. 몇 CAUTION Always connect the system separator to the water supply, never directly to the appli- ance! DANGER Risk of injury! – Only use original high-pressure hoses. – The high-pressure hose and the injec- tion system must be suitable for the maximum operating pressure given in the Technical Data. – Avoid contact with chemicals. – Check the high pressure hose daily. Do not use hoses with kinks. Stop using the high pressure hose if the external wire layer is visible. – Do not use the high-pressure hose any- more if the winding is damaged. – Lay the high-pressure hoses in such a way that no vehicle can drive over it. Device elements Colour coding Symbols on the machine High-pressure jets can be dangerous if improp- erly used. The jet may not be directed at per- sons, animals, live elec- trical equipment or at the appliance itself. Danger of damage to the machine on account of frozen water! Store the appliance in a heated- room during winter or empty it. Safety instructions 15EN– 3 – Do not use high-pressure hoses that have been driven over, kinked, pressed or bent even if there is no externally vis- ible damage. – Store the high-pressure hoses in such a way that they are not subject to any me- chanical load. – The appliance/accessories must not be modified. Safety devices serve to protect the user and must not be rendered in operational or their functions bypassed. The switch prevents unintented starting of the appliance. Stop the appliance during breaks or after operation. The safety catch on the trigger gun pre- vents the appliance from being switched on unintentionally. – While reducing the water supply/quanti- ty regulation at the pump head, the overflow valve opens and part of the water flows back to the pump suck side. – If the hand spray gun is closed, the overflow valve opens and the entire wa- ter volume will flow back to the pump suction side. The pressure switch on the overflow valve sends a signal to the control, which switches the pump off af- ter approx. 30 seconds of trailing time (does not apply to HD 16/15-4). – If the hand spray gun is opened, the pressure switch on the cylinder head turns the pump back on. The overflow valve and pressure switch are set and sealed at the factory. Setting only by customer service. The electrical circuit breaker breaks the power circuit when there is no voltage in one of the phases. The winding protection contact in the motor winding of the pump drive switches off the engine when there is a thermal overload. The safety valve opens when there is a problem in the pressure switch. This valve is set and sealed in the factory. Do not change the setting. DANGER Risk of injury! Device, tubes, high pressure hose and connections must be in faultless condition. If they are not in a perfect state then the appliance must not be used. Cut off tip of oil container cover (HD 25/ 15-4). Check oil level of the high pressure pump. The oil level must be at the centre of the oil level display. Add oil if required (see technical speci- fications). Fasten the pushing handle with the four screws enclosed in the packet.
