Risk of damage due to improper installation!
Incorrect installation may result in damage, malfunctions and failures of the device/machine/vehicle.
Assembly, installation and connection may only be carried out by a qualified specialist.Risk of damage due to sharp-edged objects and soiling!
Sharp-edged or dirty objects can cause damage such as scratches, nicks and deformations when they come into contact with components. Dirty tools, cloths and work surfaces can cause irreversible soiling and colour changes.
Only use suitable, undamaged and clean tools and aids, and act with caution. Only place components and devices on clean, padded surfaces.Risk of damage due to improperly installed cables and hoses!
Improperly installed lines and hoses can cause damage, malfunctions and failures of parts or device / machine / vehicle.
Do not kink lines and hoses and do not subject them to tension, compression or torsion.Ensure that the lines and hoses are routed so that they are free from chafing and at a sufficient distance from hot components, and do not run them over corners or edges or over sharp or pointed parts.Do not fall below the smallest permissible bending radii.If necessary, fasten the lines and hoses with suitable means, do not restrict the required degrees of freedom.Lay and secure cables and hoses so that they are not crushed or compressed and do not come into contact with rotating parts such as wheels, rollers, rollers, brushes, etc.Observe the warnings in the chapters!
The docking station is suitable for commercial and industrial use, e.g. in production, warehouse and exhibition halls.
The docking station may only be operated with the casing installed.
Any other use is not permitted and considered as improper use.
These assembly instructions describe how to assemble the docking station.
With the docking station, machines of the type KIRA B 200 Perform the following tasks autonomously after docking:
Filling the fresh water tank
Emptying and rinsing the waste water tank
Charging the traction batteries LIB
The docking station may only be operated with the housing attached.
Any other use is not permitted and considered as improper use.
Assembly takes approx. 45 minutes.
Overview of the unit

* required, not included in the scope of supply
** optionally available

For safe and trouble-free operation, the following requirements must be met at the docking station installation site:
Frost-protected interior that can be accessed by the machine.
Vertical, flat, fixed wall with sufficient holding power (e.g. concrete or vertically perforated brick) for attaching the docking station.

Horizontal, level, enclosed open space with a minimum load-bearing capacity equal to the permissible total weight of the machine.
See diagram for minimum dimensions of the open space.
Always keep the open space clear of people, animals and objects.
If necessary, install collision protection devices in the specified areas.

The installation site and the open space must not be located in the vicinity of footpaths or driveways and must not be frequented by the general public.
Mains socket with protective contact available, protected by country-specific residual current device, see for connection values. Technical data.
Fresh water supply point available on the building side, see connection values Technical data.
Waste water disposal point available on the building side. This is ideally designed to be at ground level. However, waste water disposal is guaranteed up to a height of 15 cm.
Disassemble the housing on the docking station.
Place the docking station on the cleaned floor surface and push it against the wall until it is flush.
Mount the docking station to the wall:
Align the docking station horizontally and mark the outlines of the slots on the wall.
Drill a hole in the center of each marked spot.
This is the only way to adjust the height of the docking station up or down later.
Align the docking station horizontally and secure it to the wall with the screws.
Use fastening materials suitable for the wall type. The screw diameter must 6 mm .

Move the machine centrally in front of the tips of the docking station centring cones.

Check that the tips of the centring cones are aligned with the centring cone mounts on the device.
Do not align, measure the height difference and set the mounting height of the docking station accordingly, seeSetting the installation height.
Unscrew the screws securing the docking station to the wall.
Remove the docking station feet and remove or insert the required number of washers.

Mount the feet on the docking station.
Mount the docking station horizontally on the wall.
All feet must rest flat on the floor area.
Check the installation height again and repeat the adjustment process if necessary.
Risk of damage due to excessive water supply pressure!
Material damage
Make sure that the maximum permissible water inlet pressure is not exceeded.If necessary, install a pressure reducer.Install a pressure reducer if you cannot determine the water supply pressure.Check the building water supply pressure, see Technical data and adjust if necessary.
If necessary, install a pressure reducer.
Connect the Aquastop hose:
Optionally, screw a water stop valve onto the building’s water tap, see Installing the water stop valve.
Screw the Aquastop hose onto the building's water tap or onto the optional water stop valve.
Route the Aquastop hose to the fresh water solenoid valve on the docking station and screw it on.

Has the water stop valve triggered during operation:
Eliminate the cause of the triggering.
Reset the water stop valve, see Resetting the water stop valve.
To ensure that no water overflows at the docking station, a water stop valve can also be installed. The water stop valve is mounted between the tap and the Aquastop hose.
Turn off the water supply.
Set the arrow to level 8 (40 litre water flow) with the spanner provided.
The water stop valve can be set from level 1 (5 litre water flow) to level 10 (50 litre water flow) and closes automatically when more than the set amount of water has flowed through without interruption.
Attach the upper end of the water stop valve to the tap.
At the entrance of the water stop valve, an upwardly curved Water filter is installed. If the Aquastop hose has a Filter mounted, it must be replaced by a gasket to ensure the function of the Water Stop Valve.
Attach the AquaStop hose to the thread at the bottom of the water stop valve.

Turn the water supply back on.
Turn off the water supply.
Remove the AquaStop hose.
Turn off the water stop valve and press in the red pin.

Attach the upper end of the water stop valve to the tap and press in the red pin.
Attach the AquaStop hose to the thread at the bottom of the water stop valve.
Turn the water supply back on
The drain hose is pre-assembled for installation of the appliance to the left of the waste water disposal point. This is the preferred position. However, if it is not possible to install the appliance to the left of the waste water disposal point, the drain hose must be re-assembled, see Conversion of the drain hose.
Depending on local conditions, use suitable pipes, hoses, seals, fasteners, adapters and connectors for the connection (illustration shows example with waste water pipe).
Install a suitable waste water pipe:
Fit the elbow connector onto the high-temperature pipe of the dirty water hose connector.
Ensure that the elbow is correctly oriented. The pipe connected to the elbow should have a minimum gradient of 1°.
Starting from the elbow joint, establish a pipe connection to the waste water disposal point.
The pipe diameter must not be less than DN 50 / NPS 2 at any point.


Loosen the hose clamp.
Remove the drain hose from the high-temperature pipe.
Pull the high-temperature pipe out of the connection adapter.
Remove the connection adapter.
Remove the screws and washers.

Place the connection adapter at the installation point.
Screw on the connection adapter using screws and washers.
Cut through the cable tie and remove it.

Lay the drain hose on the opposite side.
Observe the minimum bending radius of the waste water hose, see Technical data.
Insert the high-temperature pipe into the connection adapter.
Attach the drain hose to the high-temperature pipe.
Tighten the hose clamp.
Secure the drain hose to hole A with a cable tie.
Danger of death from electric shock.
