Water Supply
(Cold Water Only)
When connecting the water inlet to
the water supply mains, local
regulations of your water company
must be observed. In some areas
the unit must not be connected
directly to the public drinking water
supply. This is to ensure that there
is no feedback of chemicals into
the water supply. Direct connection
via a receiver tank or backflow
preventer, for example,
is permitted.
Use a water filter to avoid potential
damage from dirt in the water
supply such as Karcher part
number 4.730-059.0 from
www.kaercher.com.
● Garden hose must be at least
5/8 inch (16 mm) in diameter.
● Flow rate of water supply must not
fall below 2 GPM/gallons per minute
(7.6 L/min).
● Flow rate can be determined by
running the water for one minute into
an empty 5-gallon (18.9 liter)
container.
● The water supply temperature must
not exceed 104°F/40°C.
● Never use the pressure washer to
draw in water contaminated with
solvents,
e.g. paint thinners, gasoline, oil, etc.
● Always prevent debris from being
drawn into the unit by using a clean
water source.
Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter Protection
This electric pressure washer is
equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug of
the power cord for your protection.
The Consumer Product Safety
Commission recommends that you
test all GFCI's once a month. Since
the frequency of pressure washer use
varies, we recommend that you test
the GFCI as part of your startup
procedure each time you use your
pressure washer. It might need to be
reset before working with the pressure
washer. To learn how to perform the
GFCI test and how to reset it, visit
http://www.karcher-help.com and
search for GFCI for further
instructions. DO NOT USE IF GFCI
FAILS TEST.
NOTE: The actual appearance of the
GFCI may be different from this illustra-
tion.
