To reduce the risk of injury, close su-
pervision is necessary when a prod-
uct is used near children.
Know how to stop the product and
bleed pressures quickly. Be thor-
oughly familiar with the controls.
Stay alert – watch what you are do-
ing.
Do not operate the product when fa-
tigued or under the influence of alco-
hol or drugs.
Keep operating area clear of all per-
sons.
Do not overreach or stand on unsta-
ble support. Keep good footing and
balance at all times.
Follow the maintenance instructions
specified in the manual.
This product is provided with a
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter built
into the power cord plug. If replace-
ment of the plug or cord is needed,
use only identical replacement parts.
WARNING
Risk of Injection or Injury – Do Not
Direct Discharge Stream At Persons.
High-pressure jets can be dangerous
if misused. The jet must not be di-
rected at persons, animals, electrical
devices, or the unit itself.
Wear safety goggles.
WARNING
Risk Of Explosion – Do not spray
flammable liquids.
Do not use acids, alkaline, solvents,
or any flammable material in this
product. These products can cause
physical injuries to the operator and
irreversible damage to the machine.
WARNING – Risk of Electrocu-
tion
Inspect cord before using – Do not
use if cord is damaged.
Keep all connections dry and off the
ground.
Do not touch plug with wet hands.
Do not use extension cord with this
product.
Connect to individual branch circuit
only.
CAUTION
This unit has been designed for use with
cleaning detergents recommended by
the manufacturer. The use of other
cleaning detergents may affect the oper-
ation of the machine and void the war-
ranty.
CAUTION
Gun kicks back – Hold with both
hands.
The Spray Gun Safety Lock prevents
the spray from accidentally being en-
gaged. This safety feature DOES
NOT lock spray in the ON position.
WARNING

DUCING 1900 PSI TO AVOID RUP-
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
English 5
TURE AND INJURY, DO NOT
OPERATE THIS PUMP WITH COM-
PONENTS RATED LESS THAN 1900
PSI WORKING PRESSURE (INCLUD-
ING BUT NOT LIMITED TO SPRAY
GUNS, HOSE AND HOSE CONNEC-
TIONS).
BEFORE SERVICING, CLEANING OR
REMOVING ANY PARTS, SHUT OFF
POWER AND RELIEVE PRESSURE.
IF CONNECTION IS MADE TO A PO-
TABLE WATER SYSTEM, THE SYS-
TEM SHALL BE PROTECTED
AGAINST BACK FLOW.
This product must be grounded. If it
should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resis-
tance for electric current to reduce the
risk of electric shock. This product is
equipped with a cord having an equip-
ment-grounding conductor and a ground-
ing plug. The plug must be plugged into
an appropriate outlet that is properly in-
stalled and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electrocution. Check with a qualified
electrician or service personnel if you are
in doubt as to whether the outlet is prop-
erly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the product - if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician. Do not use any
type of adapter with this product.
This pressure washer is provided with a
ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI)
built into the plug of the power-supply
cord. This device provides additional
protection from the risk of electric shock.
Should replacement of the plug or cord
become necessary, use only identical
replacement parts that include GFCI
protection.
CAUTION
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 con-
nected directly to the public drinking wa-
ter 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.
Dirt in the feed water will damage the
unit. To avoid this risk, we recommend
fitting a water filter.
Garden hose must be at least 13 mm
or 16 mm (1/2 inch or 5/8) inch in di-
ameter.
Flow rate of water supply must not
fall below 7.6 L/min. (2 GPM/gallons
per minute).
Flow rate can be determined by run-
ning the water for one minute into an
empty 20 litre (5-gallon) container.
The water supply temperature must
not exceed 40°C/104°F.
Never use the pressure washer to
draw in water contaminated with sol-
vents, e.g. paint thinners, gasoline,
oil, etc.
Always prevent debris from being
drawn into the unit by using a clean
water source.

WARNING
To avoid serious injury never point spray
nozzle at yourself, other persons or ani-
mals.
CAUTION
Always test an inconspicuous area be-
fore cleaning with high-pressure.
This nozzle features a 0º pencil jet which
rotates 360º for maximum dirt cutting ac-
tion, effectively increasing cleaning per-
formance up to 50%. This nozzle
combines the cleaning performance of a
0º pencil jet with the surface coverage of
a wide angle nozzle.
Not recommended for soft materials,
siding, painted surfaces, decks or au-
tos.
Before cleaning any surface an in-
conspicuous area should be cleaned
to test spray pattern and distance for
maximum cleaning results.
The Vario Power Spray Wand allows
you to adjust the cleaning pressure.
To clean at maximum pressure, the
wand must be positioned to the high-
pressure setting (Max).
For reduced pressure turn the wand
collar in the "Min" direction.
To apply detergent, the wand must
be positioned to the low-pressure
setting (Mix).
For best results see Cleaning Tips for
specific information on how to clean
different surfaces.
Always Use Kärcher
®
Detergent for
Best Results
Kärcher
®
biodegradable detergents are
specially formulated to protect the envi-
ronment and your pressure washer. The
special formula won’t clog the suction
tube filter and will protect the internal
parts of the pressure washer for a longer
life. For Kärcher
®
detergents, check
your retailer or visit our website:
www.buykarcher.com
CAUTION
Never use:
Bleach, chlorine products and other
corrosive chemicals
Liquids containing solvents (i.e.,
paint thinners, gasoline, oils)
Tri-sodium phosphate products
Ammonia products
Acid-based products
These chemicals will harm the unit and
will damage the surface being cleaned.
Use of these items will void the war-
ranty.
