To assemble the Karcher K 2 Power Control, attach the high-pressure hose to the spray gun and the unit. Connect the water supply hose to the water inlet and ensure it's securely attached. Then, plug in the power cord and switch on the unit.
If the unit doesn't start, check the power supply and ensure the unit is plugged in correctly. Inspect the fuse or circuit breaker and reset if necessary. Confirm that the power switch is in the 'on' position.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the water filter, checking hoses and connections for leaks, and storing the unit in a dry, frost-free environment. Additionally, periodically inspect the spray gun and nozzles for blockages and clean them as needed.
Low pressure can be due to a clogged nozzle, kinked hose, or insufficient water supply. Check and clean the nozzle, straighten any kinks, and ensure the water supply is adequate.
Use the detergent nozzle or a gentle spray setting to apply soap, and then switch to a medium-pressure nozzle for rinsing to avoid damaging the car's paint.
To clean the water filter, disconnect the unit from the water supply, remove the filter from the water inlet, and rinse it under running water to remove any debris. Reinstall the filter once it's clean.
Yes, it is safe to use on wood surfaces if you use the appropriate pressure setting. Start with a lower pressure setting to avoid damaging the wood. Keep the nozzle at a safe distance and move it continuously.
Check all connections and hoses for tightness and replace any damaged O-rings or seals. Inspect the high-pressure hose and spray gun for cracks or damage.
To store the unit during winter, ensure all water is drained from the pump and hoses to prevent freezing damage. Store the unit in a dry, frost-free location. Consider using a pump protector or antifreeze solution.
Pulsating can be caused by air in the system or a clogged nozzle. Bleed the air by running the unit without the nozzle until a steady stream of water flows. Clean the nozzle and check for obstructions.
