DISPLAY AND OPERATING ELEMENTS

DISPLAY D OPERATING

OPERATION

Before each start-up
Before each start-up, make sure that the vacuum cleaner, power cord, vacuum hose and accessories are not damaged. It must also be ensured that the filter cartridge is inserted and not damaged.

**** Make sure that plugged-in power tools are not switched on. The socket on the vacuum cleaner is live when the mains plug is plugged in, regardless of the switch position.

Adjusting the hose diameter (M vacuum cleaner only)
To ensure that the warning device (3) functions as prescribed, the hose diameter used must always be set on the rotary switch (1).

Permanent filter cleaning
The vacuum cleaner is equipped with electromagnetic valves that clean the filter cartridge by air back flushing. Each cleaning cycle cleans the two chambers of the filter cartridge 2 times each. Cleaning takes place automatically every 45 seconds after the last cleaning cycle.

If continuous cleaning is not necessary due to a low level of dust, you can switch it off by deactivating the cleaning function (2)

  1. Hose diameter selector switch
  2. Cleaning function On / Off (incl.) Control light
  3. Warning light and horn air velocity <20m/s
  4. Device OFF
  5. Standard mode
  6. Automatic mode with tool connected 21 7. Power socket (max. 2200W*
    OPERATION

Cleaning is active when the indicator light (2) on the control panel lights up.

When working overhead with for example long-neck grinders, make sure that the vacuuming is briefly reduced by the vacuum cleaner during the cleaning interval. This can cause the tool to fall off the ceiling. Cleaning can be switched off for small amounts of dust.

Insert fleece filter bag

  1. Unlock the locking tabs and remove the motor head
  2. Attach the fleece filter bag.
  3. Put on the motor head and lock it with the locking tabs.

Insert disposal bag

  1. Unlock the locking tabs and remove the motor head
  2. Attach the disposal bag and put it over the edge of the container. Note that the holes provided above the flange must be placed over the electrodes of the water cut-off.
  3. Spread the disposal bag against the inside of the container in order to lose as little volume as possible.
  4. Put on the motor head and lock it with the locking tabs

Switching on the vacuum cleaner

The device allows 2 operating modes.

  • Standard mode (5): Vacuum cleaner switches on immediately
  • Automatic mode (6): The vacuum cleaner is in standby mode for power tools and only switches on when a power tool plugged into the socket (7) is switched on and switches off again 5 seconds after the power tool is switched off.

The power of the vacuum cleaner can be adjusted continuously from 100% to 50% in both operating modes. Plug in the mains plug of the device. Set the rotary switch of the device to one of the two operating modes.

Dry vacuuming
See Fig. 3-11.
Before vacuuming, make sure that the filter cartridge, the vacuum cleaner and the vacuum cleaner accessories used are dry to prevent dust from sticking and becoming encrusted. For dry vacuuming it is recommended to use a fleece filter bag Item no.: 102031 or a disposal bag Item no. 118.138. Use filter bag and disposal bag only in conjunction with filter cartridge Item no.: 118166.

**** if foam or liquid escapes, switch off the vacuum cleaner immediately.

See Fig. 12-19
Before vacuuming, make sure that the electrodes of the water level sensor (Fig. 39) are clean and that contact is made with the pick-up contacts in the motor head. The filter cartridge is suitable for wet vacuuming. and must remain installed to protect the motor from coarse particles. The built-in sensor automatically switches off the motor when the container is full.

When vacuuming mainly water, it is recommended to deactivate the cleaning function (2) of the vacuum cleaner.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Make sure that the vacuum cleaner is always switched off and disconnected from the mains for care and maintenance. Acid, acetone, solvents and care products containing silicone can damage suction parts.

For user maintenance, the vacuum cleaner must be disassembled, cleaned and serviced.

As far as is practicable without causing danger to maintenance personnel and other persons. Appropriate precautions include decontamination before disassembly, provision for local filtered forced ventilation where the vacuum cleaner is being dismantled, cleaning of the service area and appropriate personal protective equipment.

At least once a year, the manufacturer or an instructed person must carry out a dust inspection, e.g. for damage to the filter, leak tightness of the vacuum cleaner and that the control device is working.

Precautions to be taken with class H vacuum cleaners
The exterior of the vacuum cleaner should be cleaned by dusting and wiped clean or treated with sealant before being removed from the danger area. All vacuum cleaner parts must be considered contaminated when removed from the contaminated area and appropriate precautions must be taken to avoid dust dispersal.

Ventilation systems, industrial vacuum cleaners and mobile dedusters must be serviced as required but at least once a year, repaired if necessary and inspected by an experience person or a maintenance company. The test result must be presented on request.
