General safety information for the wet/dry vacuum cleaner

WARNING! Electric shock – observe the following basic safety measures:

This is how to avoid accidents and injuries:

  • Never leave the device unattended at the workplace when it is ready for use.

  • Do not allow the vacuum to come into contact with people or animals.

  • While in operation, never aim the suction hose and nozzles at yourself or other people; particularly not eyes or ears. There is a risk of injury.

  • Do not vacuum hot, glowing, flammable, explosive or hazardous substances. These include hot ashes, petrol, solvents, acids or alkalis amongst others. Risk of fi re and injury.

  • The nozzles and suction hose must not be at the same height as your head while working.
    There is a risk of injury.

  • The dust container must be emptied and cleaned before and after each use.

  • Do not use any other vacuum cleaner to suck up ash.

  • Do not place the ash vacuum cleaner on combustible or polymer surfaces, including carpets and vinyl tiles.

This is how to avoid accidents and injuries from an electric shock:

  • Check the power line and extension cable for damage and ageing prior to each use. Do not use the appliance if the cable is damaged or worn.
  • Make sure that the rated voltage matches the details on the type plate.
  • Connect the appliance to a socket with a fuse of at least 16 A.
  • Connect the appliance to a socket with a residual current device (RCD) with a tripping current of not more than 30 mA.
  • Ensure that the power line does not become damage by being pulled over sharp edges, becoming trapped or by pulling on the line.
  • Never use the power line to pull the plug out of the socket or to pull the appliance. Protect the power line from heat, oil and sharp edges.
  • Switch the appliance off and unplug the power chord:
    • when you are not using the device or when you are transporting or leaving it unattended;
    • when you inspect the machine, clean it or remove blockages;
    • when you perform cleaning or maintenance work, or swap accessories;
    • if the connection cable is damaged or entangled,
    • after contact with foreign bodies or if abnormal vibration occurs
  • If the mains connection cable of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or their customer service or by a similarly qualified person in order to avoid hazards.

This is how to avoid damage to the appliance and possible personal injuries resulting from this:

  • Make sure before use that the appliance is properly assembled and that the filters are in the correct position.
  • Do not perform vacuuming without filters. The device could become damaged.
  • Only use original spare parts and accessories (see “Spare Parts/Accessories”), which are supplied and recommended by our service centre. Using externally produced parts results in the immediate loss of the warranty claim.
  • Only have repairs performed by customer service centres authorised by us.
  • Comply with the appliance’s cleaning and maintenance instructions.
  • Store the device in a dry place and out of reach of children.

C Wet suctioning

Wet suctioning

  1. Place the foam filter (15) onto the filter basket (21) on the motor head (1).
    To prevent the foam filter from tearing:
    – Only insert a dry filter;
    – Before inserting, twist the edge of the filter slightly and then roll it back.

  2. WARNING! Electric shock! Never reach into the water to be suctioned up.
    NOTE! Risk of damage! Turn off the appliance immediately if foam or liquid leaks out.
    Suctioning up (draining): place the suction hose (13) on the handgrip section (14) into the water tank and suction up the water.
    NOTE! If the dirt container is full, a float closes the suction opening and the suctioning process is stopped. Switch the appliance off and empty the dirt container.

  3. Empty the dirt container immediately after vacuuming as it is not designed to store liquids (see “Cleaning/Maintenance”).

D Dry suctioning

Dry suctioning

NOTE! The appliance comes fitted with the textile filter bag (16). A folded filter, which can be used instead of the textile filter included in delivery, is optionally available (see “Spare parts/accessories”).

Suctioning using the textile filter bag

  1. Pull the textile filter bag (16) completely over the filter basket (21). See arrow and dotted line in Fig. D .

Vacuuming fine dust

Certain suction processes (e.g. sanding paints and varnishes, milling or drilling walls, grinding or drilling hard wood) can pose a risk due to hazardous dust. We recommend using the following optional filter combination for fi ne dust. For filters not included in delivery, see “Spare parts/ Accessories”:

  • Folded filter instead of the textile filter bag ( 16) included in the scope of delivery.
  • Fine dust filter bag made of fleece instead of the paper filter bag ( 17) included in the scope of delivery.
