Operation; Water Connection; Power Connection - Kärcher HDS 2000 SUPER Instructions Manual

Water connection

For connection values refer to technical
specifications
 Connect the supply hose (minimum
length 7.5 m, minimum diameter 3/4") to
the water connection point of the ma-
chine and at the water supply point (for
e.g. a tap).
Note: The supply hose is not included.
Suck in water from vessel
If you want to suck in water from an exter-
nal vessel, the following modification is
necessary:
 Remove the water connections from the
pump heads.
 Unscrew the upper supply hoses to the
swimmer tanks and connect them to the
pump heads.
 Connect suction hose (minimum diame-
ter 3/4") with filter (accessory) to the
water connection point.
Until the pump sucked in water, you should:
 Set the pressure/quantity regulation to
maximum quantity.
 Close the dosing valve for the detergent.
Danger
Never suck in water from a drinking water
container. Never suck in liquids which con-
tain solvents like lacquer thinner, petrol, oil
or unfiltered water. The sealings within the
device are not solvent resistant. The spray
mist of solvents is highly inflammable, ex-
plosive and poisonous.

Power connection

For connection values, see technical
–
data and type plate.
The electrical connections must be
–
done by an electrician according to IEC
60364-1.
Danger
Danger of injury by electric shock.
Unsuitable extension cables can be
–
hazardous. Only use extension cables
outdoors which have been approved for
this purpose and labelled with a suffi-
cient cable cross section:
22
Always unwind extension lines com-
–
pletely.
The plug and coupling of the extension
–
cable used must be watertight.
Caution
The highest allowed net impedance at the
electrical connection point (refer to techni-
cal data) is not to be exceeded. In case of
confusion regarding the power impedance
present on your connection, please contact
your utilities provider.
Danger
Risk of explosion!
Do not spray flammable liquids.
Danger
Risk of injury! Never use the appliance
without the spray lance attached. Check
and ensure proper fitting of the spray lance
prior to each use. The screw connection of
the spray lance must be fingertight.
Caution
Never operate device with empty fuel tank
The fuel pump will otherwise be destroyed.
Safety instructions
Warning
Long hours of using the appliance can
cause circulation problems in the hands on
account of vibrations.
It is not possible to specify a generally valid
operation time, since this depends on sev-
eral factors:
Proneness to blood circulation deficien-
–
cies (cold, numb fingers).
Low ambient temperature. Wear warm
–
gloves to protect hands.
A firm grip impedes blood circulation.
–
Continuous operation is worse than an
–
operation interrupted by pauses.
In case of regular, long-term operation of
the device and in case of repeated occur-
rence of the symptoms (e.g. cold, numb fin-
gers) please consult a physician.
