• Neutral pH (7.0): Safe for use with a wide range of materials commonly found in pressure washers.

Setup and Preparation

Before using the Kärcher RM 110 Machine Protector, ensure your hot water high-pressure cleaner is clean and in good working order. Follow these steps to prepare for application:

1. Consult your pressure cleaner's manual: Identify the detergent or machine protector intake system on your specific Kärcher hot water high-pressure cleaner. This is typically a dedicated tank or suction hose.
2. Ensure the detergent tank is clean: If your pressure cleaner has a dedicated detergent tank, ensure it is free from residues of other cleaning agents. Rinse if necessary.
3. Open the RM 110 container: Carefully unscrew the yellow cap of the Kärcher RM 110 container.
4. Pour into the designated tank: Pour the required amount of RM 110 into the machine protector or detergent tank of your pressure cleaner. Refer to the operating instructions of your pressure cleaner for the correct fill level or dilution ratio.
5. Secure the cap: Replace and tighten the cap on the RM 110 container after use to prevent spillage and maintain product integrity.

The RM 110 is designed to be used undiluted or at specific dilution ratios as recommended by your pressure cleaner's manufacturer. Always follow the instructions provided with your pressure cleaner for optimal results.

Operating Instructions

The Kärcher RM 110 Machine Protector is automatically dosed into the water system of your hot water high-pressure cleaner during operation. Its primary function is to protect the machine, not to clean surfaces.

1. Ensure RM 110 is loaded: Verify that the machine protector tank on your pressure cleaner contains sufficient RM 110.
2. Activate machine protection mode: Many Kärcher hot water pressure cleaners have a specific setting or mode for machine protection or detergent application. Select this mode according to your machine's manual.
3. Begin operation: Operate your pressure cleaner as usual for your cleaning tasks. The RM 110 will be automatically introduced into the water flow, providing continuous protection against calcium deposits and corrosion.
4. Monitor consumption: Regularly check the level of RM 110 in the tank and refill as needed to ensure uninterrupted protection.

The dosage rate of RM 110 is typically controlled by the pressure cleaner itself. Refer to your pressure cleaner's manual for specific dosage recommendations and settings related to machine protection.

Proper maintenance and storage of the Kärcher RM 110 Machine Protector ensure its effectiveness and longevity.

• Storage:
  • Store the container upright in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area.
  • Protect from frost and direct sunlight.
  • Keep the container tightly closed when not in use.
  • Ensure storage temperature is between 5°C (41°F) and 30°C (86°F).
