To set up the Karcher K 3.000, first connect the high-pressure hose to the unit and the spray gun. Attach the water supply hose to the water inlet and ensure the water source is on. Finally, plug the unit into a power source and switch it on.
Ensure that the water supply is fully turned on and that there are no kinks in the hoses. Check the inlet filter for blockages and clean it if necessary. Inspect the nozzle for obstructions and clear any debris.
To prevent overheating, avoid running the unit for extended periods without breaks. Ensure adequate water flow and clean the water filter regularly to maintain proper cooling.
After use, disconnect and drain the hoses. Store the unit in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Coil the hoses neatly and ensure the power cord is wrapped securely.
Remove the nozzle and use the cleaning pin provided to clear any obstructions. Rinse the nozzle under running water to ensure no debris remains.
Regularly check the water inlet filter and clean it. Inspect hoses and connections for wear and leaks. Ensure the nozzle is clear of debris and the power cord is undamaged.
Pulsing can be caused by air trapped in the system. To resolve this, turn off the unit and press the trigger to release pressure. Turn the unit back on and try again.
Yes, you can use detergent. Fill the detergent tank with the appropriate cleaning solution. Use the low-pressure setting on the spray lance to apply the detergent.
Check all hose connections for tightness and ensure gaskets are in place. Inspect the hoses and spray gun for cracks or damage. Replace any faulty parts.
To winterize, disconnect all hoses and drain them. Run the unit for a few seconds to clear any residual water. Store in a frost-free environment. Consider using a pump saver antifreeze.
