General

• We recommend switching off the “Automatic filter dedusting” function when vacuuming wet dirt with the crevice nozzle or when sucking mainly water out of a container.

• The device switches off automatically when the maximum fluid level is reached.

• When vacuuming non-conductive liquids (e.g. drill emulsion, oils, and grease) the device does not automatically switch off when the container is full.
  The filling level must be continuously monitored and the container emptied on a timely basis.

• On completion of wet vacuum cleaning: Clean the flat fold filter using the dedusting function. Clean the electrodes with a brush. Clean the container with a moist cloth and dry it off.

Clip connection

The suction hose is equipped with a clip system. All accessory parts with a nominal width of 35 mm can be connected.

Automatic filter dedusting: maximum interval
3AUTO MIN| Device ON
Automatic filter dedusting: minimum interval

Switching on the device

1. Connect the mains plug.
2. Set the turn switch to the desired program.

Adjusting the suction power

1. Adjust the suction power (min-max) via the rotary control.

Working with power tools

DANGER
The danger of electric shock
Risk of injury and damage.
The socket is only intended for direct connection of power tools to the vacuum cleaner.
Any other use of the socket is prohibited.

1. Plug the mains plug of the power tool into the power socket on the vacuum cleaner. The vacuum cleaner is in Standby mode.

2. Switch on the device at the turn switch.
   Note
   The vacuum cleaner is automatically switched on and off with the power tool.
   Note
   The vacuum cleaner has a startup delay of up to 0.5 seconds and an after- running time of up to 15 seconds.
   Note
   See the Technical data for the permissible power rating of the power tool.

3. Remove the angle piece from the suction hose.
   Illustration K

4. Install the tool adapter on the suction hose.

5. Connect the tool adapter to the power tool.
   Illustration L

6. Set the minimum volume flow on the turn switch for the suction hose cross-section. The scale shows the suction hose cross-section.

Note
The different suction hose cross sections are necessary in order to adapt to the different connection cross sections of the processing machines.
Note
For operation as a dust removal device for mobile operation (processing machine plugged into the vacuum cleaner) the integrated monitoring system must be adjusted to suit the connected processing machine (dust generator). This means that the user must be warned when the flow rate drops below the minimum value of 20 m/s needed for correct vacuuming.

Automatic filter dedusting

The device is equipped with a special filter dedusting function, which is particularly effective against fine dust. The flat fold filter is automatically cleaned every 15 seconds (AUTO MAX) or every 60 seconds (AUTO MIN) by a blast of air (pulsing noise).

1. Set the turn switch to the desired program (AUTO MIN-AUTO MAX).
2. Power dedusting (for particularly severe contamination of the flat fold filter): Set the turn switch to program 2, seal the suction pipe or bender with your hand and wait for the automatic filter cleaning to finish (lasts 15 seconds). Illustration M
