COMMISSIONING
Unit, piping, high-pressure hose
and connections must be in
perfect working order!
– Lock the hand brake.
–
Checking oil level
Fig. 13
Prior to initial startup, cut off tip of oil
reservoir cap
Contact KÄRCHER AFTER-SALES
SERVICE immediately if oil is
opaque!
If oil level is approaching MIN mark,
fill up with oil as far as MAX mark.
Seal oil filler inlet.
Refer to technical data for oil grade.
Filling with scale inhibitor
Fig. 6
(sample pack included with scope of
delivery)
Scale inhibitor stops heating coil
becoming calcified when using hard
tap water. Is is metered in at the
inlet in the water reservoir one drop
at a time.
The metering is set at the factory to
medium-hard water.
HDS 601 C
For other water hardness classes,
call in KÄRCHER AFTER-SALES
SERVICE to perform adjustment to
local conditions.
Filling with fuel
–
Never operate unit with fuel tank
empty! Fuel pump would
otherwise be destroyed!
Fig. 7
Only fill with diesel fuel or light fuel
oil.
Close tank cap
Wipe off excess fuel
Filling with cleaning agent
Only use KÄRCHER products.
Never pour in solvent (petrol,
acetone, thinner etc.)!
* Avoid contact with eyes and skin
* Pay attention to cleaning-agent
manufacturer's instructions on
safety and handling
*

Working with high-pressure
nozzle
Spray angle is crucial to efficiency of
high-pressure jet.
Use is normally made of 25°fan jet
nozzle (included).
Recommended nozzles, available as
accessories
– For stubborn dirt
0°full jet nozzle
–
For delicate surfaces and slight
contamination
40°fan jet nozzle
–
For thick layers of stubborn dirt
dirt blaster
–
Nozzle with variable spray angle,
for adaptation to various cleaning
tasks
variable-angle nozzle
HDS 601 C
Cleaning
* Set pressure/temperature and
cleaning-agent concentration in
line with surface to be cleaned
* Always start by directing highpressure jet from a good distance
at object to be cleaned to avoid
damage caused by excessive
pressure.
Recommended cleaning method
Loosen up dirt:
Spray on cleaning agent sparingly
and allow to react for 1...5 min (do
not allow to dry on).
Remove dirt:
Spray off loosened-up dirt with highpressure jet.
Operation with cold water
Removal of slight contamination and
rinsing
e.g.: Garden implements, terrace,
tools, etc.
Set operating pressure as required
Set selector switch to "I"
Operation with hot water
* Danger of scalding
We recommend the following
cleaning temperatures
– Slight contamination 30-50°C
– Protein soiling, e.g. in foodstuffs
industry max. 60°C
– Motor vehicle cleaning, machine
cleaning 60-90°C
Set selector switch to desired
temperature
Operation with steam
At operating temperatures above
98°C operating pressure must not
exceed 32 bar.
Standard high-pressure nozzle is
therefore to be replaced with
steam nozzle (part no.: 4.766-023,
see accessories).
Set operating pressure to
minimum value. See Fig. 9
– Set temperature regulator to
min. 100°C
–
*
Danger of scalding!
8
We recommend the following
cleaning temperatures
– Preservative removal, extremely
greasy dirt 100-110°C
– Thawing of aggregates, certain
facade cleaning operations up to
140°C
EACH TIME AFTER USAGE
Warning!
Danger of scalding with hot water.
After operating it with hot water or
steam the unit must be cooled for at
least two minutes by operating it
with cold water and its open
handgun.
Following operation with cleaning
agent
– Set cleaning-agent regulator to "0"
– Set mode selector switch to "I"
– Actuate handgun and flush unit for
approx. 1 min
Stopping machine
– Set mode selector switch to "0"
– Shut off water supply
– Briefly (approx. 5 sec.) switch on
pump with selector switch
– Remove mains plug from socket
ONLY with dry hands
– Detach water connection
– Actuate handgun to depressurise
unit

*
Take care not to kink highpressure hose and cable!
Frost will destroy unit if water is not
drained off completely!
Store unit in a frost-free location
Observe the following if the unit is
connected to a flue:
Danger of damage caused by cold
air entering through the flue.
Disconnect unit from flue at outside
temperatures below 0°C.
Take unit out of service if frost-free
storage is not possible.
DISCONTINUATION OF USAGE
In the event of lengthy periods of
non-use or if frost-free storage is not
possible:
– Drain off water and flush out
equipment with antifreeze
– Drain cleaning fluid tank
HDS 601 C
Drain off water
– Unscrew water supply hose and
high-pressure hose
– Unscrew supply line at boiler base
and allow heating coil to drain
– Run unit for max. 1 min until pump
and lines are empty
Flushing unit with anti-freeze
– Use commercial grade antifreeze
– Observe handling instructions of
antifreeze manufacturer
– By this means, a certain degree of
corrosion protection is achieved
MAINTENANCE
Disconnect unit from mains before
carrying out any maintenance or
repair work.
* Always use genuine spare parts
*
Shut off unit before performing any
work, refer to AFTER USE.
– Set mode selector switch to "0"
– Pull power plug out of socket
– Shut off water supply
– Actuate handgun to depressurise
unit.
– Detach water connection

Unit does not draw in cleaning
agent
Operate the unit when the cleaning
agent metering valve is open and
the water inlet is shut off until the
float tank has been suctioned empty
and the pressure drops to "0".
– Now reopen the water inlet.
If the pump still does not suction up
cleaning agent the reasons can be
as follows:
Filter in cleaning-agent suction hose
dirty
– Clean filter
Non-return valve gummed up
– Pull the cleaning agent hose off
and detach the non-return valve
with a blunt object, see Figure 23.
Burner not ignited
Fuel tank empty
– Fill up
Lack of water
– Check water connection, check
supply lines, clean low water
protection.
Fuel filter dirty
– Replace fuel filter.
English
Incorrect direction of rotation. If
direction of rotation is correct,
powerful jet of air will be felt at
exhaust-gas opening of burner.
– Check direction of rotation. If
necessary, have connection
replaced by a qualified electrician.
No ignition spark
– Have unit checked by After-Sales
Service if no ignition spark is
visible through inspection glass
during operation.
Set temperature not attained
when working with hot water
Excessive operating pressure/flow
rate
– Reduce operating pressure/flow
rate by way of regulator (Fig. 9)
Soot deposits on heating coil
– Have After-Sales Service remove
soot deposits from unit
If the problem cannot be resolved
the unit must be checked by after
sales service.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Safety features
Overflow valve with two pressure
switches
When reducing water volume at
pump head or with the servopress
control, the overflow valve will open
and part of the water will flow back
to the pump suction side.
If the handgun is closed thus
causing all the water to return to the
pump suction end, the pressure
switch at the overflow valve shuts off
the pump.
Reopening the handgun causes the
pressure switch at the cylinder head
to switch the pump back on again.
The overflow valve is set at the
factory and lead-sealed. Adjustment
can only be made by After-Sales
Service.
*
Safety valve
The safety valve opens if the
overflow valve or pressure switch is
defective. The safety valve is set at
the factory and sealed. Adjustment
can only be made by After-Sales
Service.
*
Low water protection
The low water protection stops the
burner being switched on in the
event of a lack of water. A strainer
stops the protection feature
becoming dirty and requires regular
cleaning.
*
Motor protection switch
The motor protection switch
interrupts the circuit should
overloading occur.
*
Guidelines for liquid spraying
equipment
* The accident prevention
instructions (BGV D15) Working
with Jet Stream Equipment will
apply. In accordance with these
guidelines, high-pressure spraying
equipment must be checked at
least every 12 months by an
expert and the results of the
inspection recorded in writing.
Order governing boilers
* Test pressure and design of unit
comply with Order governing
boilers as per TRD. The water
content of the heating coil is less
than 10 litres. The boiler section of
the unit is thus not subject to
installation regulations. Local
building regulations are to be
heeded.
