Troubleshooting
No water or low water flow.
Check that the tap is fully open. Ensure the filter is clean and not clogged. Verify all connections are secure and that water pressure is at least 1 bar and does not exceed 4 bar. Check that drip collars are not fully closed.
Uneven watering from drip collars.
Ensure drip collars are correctly installed on the Kärcher Rain System hose. Adjust the water volume regulation on the drip collar for each plant. Check for blockages in individual drip collars.
Drip hose not dripping evenly.
Verify the T-piece connected to the drip hose is set to allow adequate water flow. Ensure the drip hose is laid out on a relatively level surface. Check for any kinks or obstructions in the drip hose.
System components won't connect.
Ensure you are using the correct Kärcher Rain System components. Check for any debris in the connection points. Make sure the connections are aligned properly before pushing them together firmly.
