THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING A KARCHER PRESSURE WASHER PLEASE READ THIS LEAFLET CAREFULLY BEFORE OPERATING YOUR MACHINE. WHAT IS A PRESSURE WASHER? A Pressure Washer is essentially a powerful electric motor driving a set of pistons that force water through a small nozzle, thus creating a pressurised jet of water. This provides the cleaning power behind the Karcher Pressure Washer. A Karcher Pressure Washer can be used for an endless list of applications around the home and garden.
