Water flowing through a sys-tem separator is considered non-drinkable.CautionAlways connect the system separator to the wa-ter supply, never directly to the appliance!Note: Impurities in the water can damage thehigh-pressure pump and accessories. For pro-tection, the use of the KÄRCHER water filter (op-tional accessory, order no. 4.730-059) isrecommended.Observe regulations of water supplier.For connection values, see type plate/technicaldata. Use a fibre-reinforced water hose (not in-cluded) with a standard coupling. (Minimumdiameter 1/2 inch (13 mm), minimum length7.5 m).Illustration Screw the coupling element to the waterconnection on the appliance. Push the water supply hose onto the cou-pling unit, then connect it to the water supply.CautionDry runs lasting longer than two minutes lead todamages to the high pressure pump. If the appli-ance does not build up pressure within two min-utes, switch it off and proceed as instructed inthe Chapter "Troubleshooting".Illustration Insert the high pressure hose tightly into thequick coupling on the appliance, it will lock inaudibly.Note: Make sure the connection nipple isaligned correctly. Check the secure connection by pulling onthe high pressure hose.Illustration Push the spray lance into the trigger gun andfasten it by turning it through 90°. Completely open the water tap.
