Tube cleaning machine Kärcher 2.642-240.0

The Kärcher 2.642-240.0 tube cleaning machine is a 2-in-1 gutter and pipe cleaning kit powered by high pressure. It runs autonomously on a sled through gutters and cleans blocked pipes or outflows with minimal user monitoring. The kit includes two nozzles — a pipe cleaning nozzle with four rear-facing high-pressure jets and a gutter cleaning nozzle for mounting the hose to the sled — and a 20 m non-kinking hose with a brass connector. The accessory is compatible with Kärcher pressure washers K 2 to K 7.

Advantages

The system operates independently on a sled, reducing the need to remain on a ladder during cleaning. Quick-change nozzles allow fast switching between pipe and gutter tasks. A 20 m non-kinking hose with brass connector increases durability and reach. High-pressure rear jets provide effective removal of blockages and debris from pipes.

Suitable for

• Cleaning residential and commercial gutters
• Removing blockages from downspouts and drain pipes
• Maintaining roof outflows and rainwater systems
• Use with Kärcher K 2–K 7 pressure washers

How to use

Attach the hose to a compatible Kärcher pressure washer (K 2–K 7) and connect the desired nozzle for gutter or pipe cleaning. For gutters, mount the gutter cleaning nozzle to the sled and place the sled into the gutter; the sled will travel along the gutter driven by the pressure flow. For blocked pipes, use the pipe cleaning nozzle with rear-facing jets and feed the hose into the pipe or downspout until the blockage is reached. Operate the pressure washer at recommended pressure settings and monitor progress; stop and retract the hose once the flow is restored. Store the hose and nozzles dry and inspect the brass connector for wear after use.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protection when working at height and follow the pressure washer manufacturer’s safety instructions. Avoid using the kit on fragile gutter materials without verifying compatibility. Regularly inspect the hose and connectors for damage and replace parts if worn.
