  • flammable, explosive dust (e.g. magnesium or aluminium dust, etc.)

In explosive or inflammable atmosphere

CAUTION
This machine is not suitable for use in explosive or inflammable atmospheres or where such atmospheres are likely to be produced by the presence of volatile liquid or inflammable gas or vapour.

Before start-up (A)
The fleece filter bag is pre-installed in the dust extractor.
Ensure that the voltage shown on the rating plate corresponds to the voltage of the local mains power supply. It is recommended that the dust extractor should be connected via a residual current circuit breaker.
Inspect power cord regularly to detect signs of damage, e.g. cracks or ageing. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a Mirka service center or an electrician to avoid danger before use of the dust extractor is continued. Use only the type of power cord specified in the operating manual.
As an extension lead, only use the version specified by the manufacturer or one of a higher quality. When using an extension lead, check the minimum cross- sections of the cable:

Appliance socket
An earthed appliance socket is integrated in the machine. An external power tool can be connected there. The socket features permanent power on when the switch is set to the AUTO position. Australia: The socket has a 5 Amp thermal circuit breaker to protect the machine against overload. If the power consumption gets too high the thermal circuit breaker activates and cut off the power on the socket outlet. The thermal circuit breaker can be reset again by pressing its reset button.

Picking up liquids (B)
