By default: if you press F4 on a file and you can edit it, then you are using
Krusader's internal editor; and if you press Return on a file then... you
launch Kate. Maybe your problem is not related to Krusader, maybe your problem
is that your version of Kate doesn't work with root privileges (that happens
under a lot of distributions - operating systems).
For example, in my Kubuntu 18.04 command line this is what happened:
# kate
Executing Kate as root is not possible. To edit files as root use:
SUDO_EDITOR=kate sudoedit <file>
When running Krusader in root mode (because you need to copy/move/synchronize a
lot of files in /usr/local/bin, etc.) you can use the internal editor of
Krusader to edit files. If there is really no other way, you can free Kate
(https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=86637#p381463).
That reading is very, very instructing (and also thought-provoking, "am I
cracking Linux?")
