Karcher Pressure Washer K 3.99 M - Cant put it together!

[Lauren]

Just bought one of these high pressure washers and for the life of me I can't put it together....I can't seem to attach the hose from the device to the gun part. The instructions are vague (narrative as opposed to diagrams!) and talk about something to do with using a screw driver to release the gun! Has anyone any experience of these products?

If it's the same as the K7 I assembled over the weekend, then you need a screwdriver to pull up a small locking tab near the hose connection point on the gun, once the hose is pushed in far enough, the locking tab can be pushed back down again locking the hose into the gun.

Thanks thos...I finally worked it out..It certainly wasn't obvious from the instructions and then needed a reasonable amount of brute force to lock it in!
