VACUUM CLEANER – CLASS H

SAFETY INDICATIONS

Operator safety
This manual is to be considered as an integral part of the general user manual and provides the necessary instructions for the special class H dust vacuum cleaners.
The supplied general instruction booklet must be read beforehand.
In addition to the user instructions and the current regulations in the country of use, the sector’s recognised technical regulations for the safe and appropriate use of this equipment must also be followed.
The UNI 10720 standard (Guidelines for selection and use of respiratory protective devices) establishes the guidelines for the criteria of selection, use and maintenance of respiratory protective devices
Transport and handling
ATTENTION
Be sure to close all of the dirt container’s locking hooks before transport.
Do not turn the device upside down.
Possible uses for the vacuum cleaner
The vacuum appliances to which these user instructions refer are suitable for professional use and, in particular, for the control of dusts with an exposure limit value as per the class rating of the Vacuum cleaner. This is stated on the side of the tank. H CLASS
The collection of the following materials are forbidden:
– Incandescent (white, glowing, or luminous with intense heat) materials;
– flammable and explosive dusts (for example, magnesium dusts, aluminium dusts, etc.);
Can also be used as a Standard Wet & Dry Industrial Vacuum Cleaner – for non- hazardous cleaning.
(We would recommend you remove the filter bags before you do this).
The use of this device for the elimination of dusts must be performed in rooms or environments which are sufficiently ventilated whenever the device’s exhaust returns into the environment itself. The user must respect the current national regulations in the country in which the device is being employed.
The equipment’s end user must be read and understood for its use before beginning any work activities, taking note of the safe usage regulations. The user must also receive instruction regarding the dangers deriving from the aspirated materials and the methods for their safe disposal.
The device’s electrical and compressed air outlets
The electrical or pneumatic outlets of the devices are to be used by single power tools that are being used in conjunction with the vacuum cleaner.
Ensure that the power tool is correctly connected and that the power requirement is no larger than the limitations of the vacuum cleaner.
Before connecting the power tool, ensure that the vacuum power is turned off (0 = OFF). If it is a pneumatic system, ensure that the compressed air circuit is not pressurised, connect the power tool and activate the compressed air connection.
Never leave the vacuum’s compressed air circuit pressurised after work activities have been completed: close the system valve upstream from the vacuum and depressurise the compressed air circuit.

Maintenance, cleaning and repair
Only perform the maintenance work described in this booklet on the equipment. In case of uncertainty, contact the dealer or an authorized service centre.
Before performing any cleaning or maintenance operations upon the device, remove both the electrical and compressed air power supply cables. Treat the device in a responsible manner so as to avoid creating situations which could be dangerous to both yourself, as well as to others.
A filtered, forced air ventilation system must be employed during maintenance activities. The user must wear any appropriate safety accessories during such operations, especially respiratory protection. The environment in which maintenance activities are to be performed must be decontaminated in order to prevent the dispersion of hazardous substances into the surroundings.
When transporting the device away from or within an area that is contaminated with hazardous substances, the external portion of the device must be vacuumed and wiped down with a cloth before sealing it in an air-tight container.
Any parts which cannot be cleaned must be packaged in air-tight bags and/or disposed of in compliance with the current regulations for the disposal of hazardous substances in the country of use.
The manufacturer requires that the vacuum be subjected to an annual technical inspection.
This inspection may be performed by an authorised distributor’s technician and must include the examination of the aspiration filters, the air-tight seals, as well as the signalling components/indicators.

DESCRIPTIVE INFORMATION

Detailed use of the machine
ATTENTION The vacuum cleaner is suitable for extracting dry non-flammable dusts, wood dusts and any hazardous dusts with MaK values 0.1mg/m³ ( category M dust ). Based on the hazards presented by the dusts to be aspirated, the vacuum must be equipped with appropriate filters: see the following sections.
For the Pneumatic System:
The device is designed to function at pressures ranging from a minimum of 4 bar to a maximum of 15 bar.
Below 4 bar, the device’s automatic start-up function is not guaranteed.
Never exceed the 15 bar pressure limit.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Vacuum assembly and testing
Before using the device, check that:
No foreign elements are present within the container.
Ensure that the head if fastened down with the head clips. This guarantees an air-tight seal.
The relevant filters and bag have been installed. The bag is equipped with a membrane seal which must be fitted over the internal slot of the tank intake. It also has a complete orifice seal tag which must be applied once the used bag is removed from the tank intake for safe disposal. This is important to ensure that the contained dust does not escape.
The hose is correctly connected to the tank.
the machine is connected to the correct electrical supply.
Initial working phase check
Before beginning to vacuum dusts with MaK values, check that the filters fit properly within the device and that they are positioned correctly.
Once the vacuum has been activated, block the aspiration tube and check whether an acoustic signal sounds. The acoustic signal is activated when the speed of the air within the tube falls below 20m/sec.
This must be calibrated.
In normal usage conditions, the acoustic signal turns on to signal a reduction in pressure / air flow. Once this sounds the filter must be cleaned and the bag must be replaced. The scientific health reason is that dangerous dust does not remain airborne once air velocity drops below 20m/sec.
USE OF THE DEVICE
ATTENTION The aspiration of flammable dusts/substances is forbidden.
The sector’s reference standard, EN 60335-2-69/A1:2004, lists the dusts which present a risk of explosion when brought into contact with ignition sources.
A filter bag must always be inserted into the container when the device is to be employed for vacuuming dry substances with MaK values.
For innocuous dusts, a lower-performance paper filter bag is also available.
FILTER BAG REFERENCE TABLE:

ATTENTION
The dust collection bag must not be filled past ¾ of their capacities. Check periodically during use.
Do not vacuum liquids or particularly humid substances while the bag filters are installed.
END OF WORK ACTIVITIES
After hazardous dusts have been vacuumed, the user must open the vacuum.
Disconnect the device’s power supply by removing its electrical plug from the outlet.
Empty the container and clean the vacuum.
Store the vacuum in a safe place where it cannot be accessed by unauthorised personnel.

MAINTENANCE: FILTER REMOVAL

ATTENTION
Be careful to not stir up dusts when performing cleaning operations, filter checks or filter replacements. Use a protective mask. Or a V-TUF filter cleaning box.
Replacing the filter bag
Undo the head clips and remove the head.
Remove the used filter bag and close the inlet with the tag as shown below. Dispose of the bag in the correct manner.

Fit the new filter bag, making sure that the bag’s membrane seal fits perfectly over the internal slot of the tank inlet and that the bag fits neatly around the edge of the tank internal.
Refit the head ensuring that the clips are completely closed and there is no parts of the dust bag exposed.
Emptying the dirt from the container
ATTENTION The container can only be emptied when the device has been employed for vacuuming innocuous dusts without the use of a filter bag.
Remove the device’s cover, turn the container upside down and empty it.
The waste materials must always be disposed of in compliance with the current local laws.
Replacing the filtering element
Open the closure hooks, lift the vacuum’s cover from the container and set it down with the filtering system oriented upwards (use the container as a support surface if necessary).
Unlock the plastic anti-impact basket, by turning it counter clockwise, and extract it; unscrew the tightening knob; slowly remove the filter, placing it in a bag with an air-tight seal. Dispose of the used filter in compliance with the current local laws. Clean the areas covered by the filter and insert a new filter by following the removal procedure above in the opposite order.
ATTENTION Never use the vacuum without a filter installed.
