Karcher Hot and Cold High Pressure Washer 180 Bar – HDS 8/18-4 M

The HDS 8/18-4 M hot water high-pressure cleaner impresses with environmental and service friendliness, easy operation, good cleaning performance and operational safety. Steering roller/castor, rubber tyres, ergonomic push handle, suitability for stacker loading, and tilting aid guarantee comfortable transport. The eco!efficiency mode in conjunction with turbo blower, cleaning agent dosing unit, optimised burner engineering, service switch for water hardness regulation and high pump efficiency ensure maximum cleaning efficiency. Other features include the patented nozzle technology and specific accessories. The EASY!Force high-pressure gun utilises the recoil force of the high-pressure jet to reduce the retaining force to zero, while the EASY!Lock quick-release couplings enable handling that is five times faster than conventional screw connections. Other equipment features include exhaust monitoring, system care adaptation, the 3-piston axial pump and the heat-resistant chimney opening panelling. The machine also boasts a robust chassis. Easy access to all service-related components.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
In the eco!efficiency mode the machine operates in the most economical temperature range (60°C) – with full water flow. The burner cycles are optimised to reduce fuel consumption by 20% compared to full-load operation.Efficiency
Highly efficient, tried-and-tested burner technology. 4-pole, slow-running electric motor guarantees a long working time.Maximum efficiency
The large, integrated water fine filter reliably protects the high-pressure pump against small dirt particles. The integrated exhaust gas thermostat switches off the drive motor if the emission temperature exceeds 300 °C. The Soft Damping System (SDS) compensates for vibration and pressure peaks in the high-pressure system.Operational safety
Storage
Safe and ample storage for protective gear, accessories and cleaning agents.
Storage hooks for power cable and high-pressure hose.
Mobility concept
“Jogger” design with large rubber-tyred wheels and steering roller.
Integrated tilting aid for effortlessly negotiating obstacles such as steps and kerbs.
Save time and effort: EASY!Force high-pressure gun and EASY!Lock quick-release couplings.
Effortless operation at last: the EASY!Force high-pressure gun.
EASY!Lock quick-release couplings: durable and robust. And five times faster than screws.
