Filter cleaning
Filter cleaning should be carried out regularly. Filter cleaning becomes necessary as soon as the suction power decreases (see chapter “Small repairs – do it yourself!” in this operating manual). The unit is equipped with a semi- automatic filter cleaning system. You can clean the filters by closing the inlet of the hand tube (B).

• Procedure:
  Switch the appliance on and then to max. power (A). Close the inlet with your hand or the receptacle/opening in the unit (B). After closing the inlet, wait 2-3 seconds until the maximum negative pressure has been built up. Press the filter cleaning button (C) 5 times quickly in succession. This cleans the filter and restores suction power.

Problem: Industrial vacuum cleaner emits dust
The industrial vacuum cleaner emits dust from the ventilation slots.

Troubleshooting:

1. If the industrial vacuum cleaner emits dust at the ventilation slots, switch off the unit immediately (to “OFF”). Ventilate the work area immediately and leave the room.
2. Check dust bag/disposal bag for correct seating in the collection container.
3. Check the filter for perfect condition. If the filter is damaged or broken, it must be replaced.
   • ATTENTION Only operate the industrial vacuum cleaner with an inserted and undamaged filter. Make sure that the filter is in perfect condition.
   • ATTENTION When carrying out maintenance and repair work it is necessary to dispose of any contaminated objects which cannot be adequately cleaned. Such objects must be placed in impermeable bags in compliance with the relevant regulations for the disposal of such refuse. Objects that had to be disposed of have to be replaced and reinstalled.
4. Check the filter for cleanliness and correct seating in the unit. Clean the filter if necessary (see chapter “Safety instructions” in these operating manual). Allow the filter to dry before reinserting it into the unit.
   VORSICHT Only operate the industrial vacuum cleaner with an inserted and undamaged filter. Make sure that the filter is in perfect condition.
   VORSICHT When opening and closing the filter cover, there is a risk of crushing due to carelessness! Body parts can be crushed by the filter cover folding down quickly. Therefore, be particularly attentive, e.g. when resetting the retaining hook and when slowly lowering the filter cover. Do not allow yourself to be distracted by anything.
