which can lead to minor injuries.
ATTENTION
Pointer to a possibly dangerous situation,
which can lead to property damage.
Proper use
- The interior cleaners HKS 100 are
spray devices to clean drums and con-
tainers.
- The cleaning head is inserted into the
container through an opening with a
suitable minimum inner diameter.
Cleaning head
HKS 100
- A separate high pressure pump is con-
nected to the interior cleaner via a high
1
pressure hose.

Note: The chapter "Specifications" con-
1
tains a list of the permitted cleaning liquids.

Operation outside closed containers and
10
with higher pressure and temperatures
11
than those listed in the "Specifications" is
11
prohibited.

11
Please do not allow cleaning liquids to en-
11
ter the environment. Protect the ground
11
and dispose of used oil in an environmen-
12
tally-clean manner.
12
Please do not let mineral oil contaminated
12
waste water reach soil, water or the sew-
age system.
The regulator in the interior cleaner has the
same characteristics as mineral oil. When
you change the regulator fluid, you can re-
turn the used regulator fluid to the respec-
tive collection sites. Polluting the environ-
ment with used regulator fluid is a punish-
able offence.
Function
- The nozzles on the cleaning head turn
around two axles and therefore touch
every place in the container.
- The interior cleaner drives itself pow-
ered by the pushback force of the
cleaning liquid on the nozzles. The
speed depends on the pressure, vol-
ume and temperature of the cleaning
fluid.
- The interior cleaner is equipped with a
temperature-dependent speed regula-
tion (Speed Control).
EN
- Please follow the national rules and
regulations of the respective country.
- Please follow the safety instructions
which are attached to the used deter-
gents (normally on the packing label).
- In order to avoid improper operation,
the system may only be used by per-
Minimum con-
sons who have been instructed in han-
tainer opening
dling the system or have proven qualifi-
200 mm
cation and expertise in operating the
system or have been explicitly assigned
the task of handling the system.
- The operating instructions must be ac-
cessible for every user.
Wrong operation or misuse are hazardous
to the operator and other persons on ac-
count of:
- high pressure
- Cleaning agents or used cleaning liquid
- hot system parts, if hot cleaning liquids
are used
- Danger of explosion
DANGER
- Danger of injury by high pressure jet -
therefore only use interior cleaner in-
side closed containers.
- Health hazards posed by residue in
containers that are cleaned or by the
cleaning liquid used. Therefore, the list-
ed protective measures must be ad-
hered to.
- Risk of injury due to interior cleaner top-
pling over at low submerge depth. In
this case, the interior cleaner must be
supported.
- Risk of injury by toppling container -
therefore use extra support for contain-
er and interior cleaner.
- Risk of burns by hot hoses and hot rack
when using hot cleaning liquids. When
operating with hot cleaning liquids, do
not touch the rack and supply lines and
wear protective clothing.
Risk of explosion and fire when using
cleaning agents and residue in the contain-
ers. Please contact Kärcher in such cases
to find out, how the respective cleaning
agents should be used.
ATTENTION
In order to avoid damage to the cleaning
head, ensure a free layout inside the con-
tainer. The cleaning head must never touch
the container wall.
