Problem With My High Pressure Cleaner

I'm guessing here, maybe it needs to be primed?

Try this for the manual metal head

Hi DJ's Timber,

Thank you for your swift reply. I think I have just done as you said (see image) but it no water came out of the lance (external outlet). Did I do it correctly?

Hi,

Well I have just got off the phone having spoken to a Karcher technician and he told me the item I though was used to suck the water in is actually the detergent suction hose.

He said the best thing to do was to get a length of 3 metres (maximum length) hose pipe and in turn connect it to a female fitting that will connect onto the male water supply inlet.

I will try that either later on or tomorrow.

Cheers
MH
