To start the Karcher BDP 51/2000 C, ensure the power cord is connected to a suitable outlet. Turn the power switch to the "On" position, and then slowly lower the handle to your desired operating height.
First, check if the power cord is properly plugged in. Ensure the outlet is functional by testing with another device. Inspect the fuse or circuit breaker for any issues. If the problem persists, consult the user manual or contact Karcher support.
Regularly clean the machine after use, inspect the power cord for damage, check the pad for wear and replace if necessary, and ensure all bolts and nuts are tightened securely. Lubricate moving parts as specified in the manual.
To replace the pad, ensure the machine is turned off and unplugged. Lift the machine to access the pad driver, remove the existing pad, and attach a new one. Ensure it is centered and securely fastened before operating the machine.
Excessive vibration may be due to an unbalanced or worn pad. Stop the machine, check the pad for even wear or damage, and replace if necessary. Ensure the pad is properly centered on the pad driver.
To adjust the handle height, locate the handle adjustment lever, usually near the base of the handle. Release the lever, set the handle to the desired height, and secure the lever to lock the handle in place.
The type of pad depends on the floor type and cleaning task. For general purpose cleaning, a red pad may be suitable, while a black pad is ideal for heavy-duty stripping tasks. Consult the manual for recommendations specific to your cleaning needs.
After cleaning the machine, store it in a dry, sheltered area. Ensure the power cord is coiled neatly and the handle is lowered to save space. Avoid storing with the pad in contact with the floor to prevent deformation.
Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as goggles and non-slip footwear. Keep the machine away from water to prevent electric shock. Follow all safety instructions in the user manual, and do not operate the machine with unauthorized attachments.
Regularly maintain the machine, use the appropriate pads for your cleaning tasks, and ensure the floor surface is free of debris before operation. Periodically check for worn or damaged parts and replace them promptly to maintain optimal performance.
