Read these original operating instructions and the enclosed safety instructions before using the device for the first time. Proceed accordingly.

Keep both books for future reference or for future owners.

The system is switched on and off on the device. The detergent dosage can also be set and error messages can be viewed.

Depending on the system design, further workstations are located at the accessory devices (spraying devices), which are connected to the tapping points. Remote controls can optionally be installed at these workstations.

The safety devices are set and sealed by the manufacturer. Adjustments are performed only by customer service.

The power switch prevents the device from starting up unintentionally. Turn the power switch to 0/OFF during work breaks or when finishing work.

The safety catch on the high-pressure gun prevents the device from being switched on inadvertently.

When the water quantity is reduced via the pressure/quantity control on the trigger gun, the overflow valve opens and part of the water flows back to the suction side of the pump.

When the trigger on the high-pressure gun is release, the pressure switch switches off the high-pressure pump and the high-pressure jet stops.

The pump switches on again when the trigger is pulled.

If the device is not used for 30 minutes, the device switches off. The readiness time can be activated and deactivated by customer service via the service menu.

The motor circuit breaker shuts off the device if power consumption it too high.

If there are leaks in the high-pressure system, the device is switched off.

The water shortage safeguard prevents the high-pressure pump from switching on when there is a lack of water.

After switching off the device via the high-pressure gun, a solenoid valve located in the high-pressure system opens after the operating standby time has elapsed. This reduces the pressure built up in the high-pressure system.

• The system delivers water at high pressure to a downstream high-pressure cleaning system. If necessary, detergent is sucked in and added to the water.

• The system is permanently installed in a dry, frost-free room. The high-pressure water is distributed by a permanently installed piping network. Alternatively, a high-pressure gun with a high-pressure hose can be connected directly to the high-pressure outlet of the device.

• The system can be mounted on a wall or installed on a frame (attachment kit, optional).

• The system must be installed so that the rear opening is closed, for example by a wall.

• Only clean water may be used as a high-pressure medium. Contamination leads to premature wear and tear or deposits in the device.

• Measures to reduce hardness may be necessary above 3 °dH.

• The use of recycled water must be agreed with Kärcher in advance.

The following limit values apply to the water supply:

• pH value: 6.5-9.5

When the entire water volume is removed, the water flows via the water inlet, float container, advance pressure pump hot water and high-pressure pump to the high-pressure outlet.

If only part of the water output delivered by the pump is required, the residual amount flows back to the suction side of the high-pressure pump via the flow control.

Detergent is sucked in from up to 2 detergent containers and added using the detergent dosing valves. To activate the detergent, turn the twist grip to the right. No detergent is drawn in at position 0 and the maximum amount is drawn in at position 6.

If the system pressure drops during the standby time due to the opening of a consumer, the pressure switch switches on the high-pressure pump. If the consumer is closed again, the pump switches off automatically.

Adding RM 110 system care prevents the formation of lime deposits when operating with hot water. St H devices are suitable for hot water operation up to 85°C, St devices up to 60° water inlet temperature. Depending on the water hardness, the dosing can be adjusted by customer service as required.

• The system should be installed in a dry, non-explosive environment.

• The device should be installed on a firm and level surface.

• The system should be easily accessible for maintenance work.

• The system can be mounted on the wall or with the floor structure attachment kit (optional)

• Check the load capacity of the wall before installation. Use suitable plugs and screws for concrete, cavity block, brick and aerated concrete walls,e.g. an injection anchor.

• The device must not be rigidly connected to the water supply or high-pressure pipework. The connecting hoses must always be fitted.

• Provide a stopcock between the water pipe network and the connecting hose.

• For connected loads, see technical data and type plate.

• The electrical connection must be carried out by an electrician and comply with IEC 60364-1.

• All live parts, cables and devices in the work area must be in proper condition and be protected against water jets.

---

• Design the water inlet for continuous operation.

• Fit the water supply line with a shut-off valve and connect it to the high-pressure unit via a flexible pressure hose.

• If the line cross-section is too small or the inlet pressure is too low, the result is a water shortage.

• If the inlet pressure is too high or there are pressure peaks in the line system, always connect a pressure reducer upstream. A water drain must be available at the installation site.

• If the "Solenoid valve water inlet" attachment kit is installed, the valve blocks the water inlet until the device is switched on.

---

Observe the relevant national regulations when installing the high-pressure lines.

• The connection between the permanently installed pipework and the device must be a high-pressure hose line.

• Lay the permanently installed pipework as straight as possible. Lay high-pressure pipelines in accordance with regulations, taking into account length changes due to heat and pressure effects, using dampened sliding and fixed clamps.

• In order to minimise pressure losses in the high-pressure lines, the following recommendations should be observed:

  Pipelines: Nominal width DN 15
  Hose lines: Nominal width DN 8
  hose lines HD 17-15 St (H): DN 10

For the above-mentioned guide values, the pipework length and the number of changes of direction and fittings must also be taken into account.
