FAQs

How do I charge the battery?

Use the charger provided with the machine. Plug it into a standard outlet and connect it to the machine. The charging time will vary, so consult the user manual for details.

What kind of cleaning solution should I use?

Use a cleaning solution specifically designed for floor cleaning machines. Refer to the manufacturer's recommendations for the best results and to avoid damaging the machine.

How often should I replace the brush?

The brush life depends on the frequency of use and the floor type. Inspect the brush regularly and replace it when the bristles are worn or damaged. The machine's manual will provide more details on brush maintenance.

How do I empty the recovery tank?

Locate the recovery tank (often at the rear of the machine). Remove the tank, empty the dirty water into a suitable drain or disposal area, and rinse the tank thoroughly before replacing it.

Can I use this machine on carpets?

No, the Karcher BD 38/12 C is designed for hard floor surfaces only. Using it on carpets may damage the machine and the carpet.

What's the warranty on the Karcher BD 38/12 C?

Warranty information can vary by region and dealer. Check the product documentation or contact your local Karcher representative for specific warranty details.

How do I store the machine?

Store the machine in a dry, well-ventilated area. Empty the tanks, clean the brush and squeegees, and ensure the battery is charged before long-term storage.

Troubleshooting

Machine doesn't start.

Check the battery charge and ensure the power switch is in the 'on' position. If the battery is dead, recharge it.

Poor cleaning performance.

Check the disc brush for wear and tear. Make sure the squeegees are clean and properly aligned. Ensure that the correct cleaning solution is being used.

Water streaks remain after cleaning.

Check the squeegees for any obstructions or damage. Adjust the squeegee angle or replace them if necessary. Reduce the solution flow if it's too high.

Battery life seems short.

Ensure the battery is fully charged before use. Check the battery's age and condition, as battery performance degrades over time. Consider replacing the battery if it consistently provides short run times.
