– The heating appliance of the machine is an ignition plant. All national laws and regulations about heating systems must also be followed.

– As per the applicable national guide-lines, the first time this high-pressure cleaner must be taken into operation by a skilled person. KÄRCHER has al-ready performed this initial start-up for you and has documented it accordingly. The documentation can be requested at your KÄRCHER partner. Please have the part and plant number of the appli-ance available when enquiring about the documentation.

– We would like to point out that the appli-ance must be repeatedly checked by a skilled person as prescribed by the ap-plicable national regulations. Please contact your KÄRCHER partner.

Safety devices serve for the protection of the user and must not be put out of operation or by-passed with respect to their function.

– While reducing the water supply at the pump head or with the Servopress - regulation the overflow valve opens and part of the water flows back to the pump suck side.

– If the hand-spray gun is closed, so that the whole water flows back to the pump suck side, the pressure switch at the overflow valve shuts down the pump.

– If the hand spray gun is opened, the pressure switch on the cylinder head turns the pump back on.

The overflow valve is set by the manufac-turer and sealed. Setting only by customer service.

– The pressure switch turns the device off when the handgun is closed and switch on when the handgun is opened.

– The safety valve opens, when the over-flow valve resp. the pressure switch is broken.

The safety valve is set by the manufacturer and sealed. Setting only by customer service.

– The water shortage safeguard prevents the burner to be turned on when there is water shortage.

– A sieve prevents the contamination of the safeguard and must be cleaned reg-ulary.

– The motor protection switch interrupts the electric circuit if the motor is over-loaded.

– The temperature stop switches off the machine when the waste gases have reached very high temperatures.
