WINTERIZING AND LONG-TERM STORAGE

1: Disconnect all water connections.

2: Turn on the machine for a few seconds, until the water which had remained in the pump exits, turn off immediately.

3: Do not allow high pressure hose to become kinked.

4: Store the machine and accesso- ries in a room which does not reach freezing temperatures. DO NOT store near furnace or other sources

of heat as it may dry out the pump seals.

￿CAUTION

Failure to follow the above directions will result in damage to the pump as- sembly and accessories and will void the warranty.

Kärcher® also recommends the regular practice of using a pump protector like “Kärcher® Pump Guard” to prevent cold weather damage during storage in the winter months.
