How to use

Connect the pressure washer to a suitable mains supply (220–240 V, 50–60 Hz), attach the high-pressure hose using the Quick Connect coupling and fill the detergent tank if required. Switch on the unit and select the appropriate pressure setting for the task. Aim the nozzle at the surface to be cleaned from a safe distance and move evenly to avoid damage. After use, switch off, release pressure in the system, drain remaining water if freezing conditions are expected and store the unit and accessories in a dry place.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use the adjustable pressure to avoid surface damage: lower pressure for painted surfaces and vehicles, higher pressure for hard surfaces like concrete. Use the detergent tank with Karcher-compatible cleaning agents and always follow safety instructions for electrical appliances and pressurised water equipment.
