Drawing in water from open reservoirs
When fitted with the appropriate accesso-
ries, this high-pressure cleaner can draw in
surface water, e.g. from water butts or ponds
(max. suction height 0.5 m).
" As the standard coupling system is not
suitable for use in suction mode, the
Kärcher suction hose with integrated fil-
ter should be used instead (special ac-
cessory, order no. 4.440-238) and
suspended inside the water butt.
" Use the Kärcher water filter to protect the
HP pump and accessories (special ac-
cessories, order no. 4.730-059). This fil-
ter removes dirt from incoming water.
" Appliance ventilation: Switch on the ap-
pliance without connection the HP hose
and run it until the water discharging
from the HP outlet is free of bubbles.
