Connecting the pressure washer to another
water source
The pressure washer can draw water from water butts and
cisterns and from running or stagnant bodies of water.
So that the water can be drawn in, the height difference
between the pressure washer and the water source should
not exceed the maximum suction lift (a), @ 19.1.
The appropriate STIHL suction set must be used. The
suction set includes a water hose with a special coupling.
Depending on the market, the appropriate STIHL suction set
may be supplied with the pressure washer.
Connecting the water filter
If operating the pressure washer with sandy water from
water butts, cisterns or running or stagnant bodies of water,
a water filter must be connected in-line between the water
hose and the pressure washer.
Depending on the market, the water filter may be supplied
with the pressure washer.
