immediately.
3: Do not allow high pressure hose

Initial Use
All Kärcher pumps ship with oil already

no need to add oil.
Pump Inspection
You should routinely make a visual in-
spection of the pressure washer's
pump. If you notice oil leaking around
the pump seals, you should take the
pressure washer to a Kärcher-Autho-
rized Service Center for repair. (You
can locate a service center in your area
online at www.karcherresidential.com)
