Instructions for use
Read the operating instructions and comply with the important safety recommendations identiÞ ed by the word WARNING!
Operator’s safety
WARNING!
Before starting the vacuum cleaner, it is
absolutely essential to read these operating
instructions and to keep them ready at hand
for consultation.
The vacuum cleaner can only be used by people who
are familiar with the way it works and who have been
explicitly authorised and trained for the purpose.
Before using the vacuum cleaner, the operators must
be informed, instructed and trained on how to work
it and for which substances its usage is permitted
including the safe method for removing and disposing
of the vacuumed material.
WARNING!
The use of vacuum cleaner by people (including
children) with limited physical and mental capacities
or lacking in experience and knowledge is strictly
forbidden, unless they are supervised by a person
who is experienced in the use and safe handling of the
machine.
Children must be supervised to make sure they will
not play with the machine.
General information for using the vacuum
cleaner
Use of the vacuum cleaner is governed by the laws in
force in the country where it is used. Besides the operating
instructions and the laws in force in the country where the
vacuum cleaner is used, the technical regulations for ensuring
safe and correct operation must also be observed (Legislation
concerning environmental and labour safety, i.e. European
Union Directive 89/391/EC and successive Directives). Do
not carry out any operation that could jeopardize the safety of
people, property and the environment. Comply with the safety
indications and prescriptions in this instruction manual.
Proper uses
This machine is suitable for vacuuming different kinds of
(applicable) liquids.
With the appropriate optional accessories, it can also be used
in workshops where metallic shaving machining is done. In
these cases, the machine sucks and separates machining
shavings from liquids (cutting ß uid, emulsions, coolants, etc.)
collecting them quickly.
Any other use is considered improper.
The vacuum cleaner has been designed to be used by one
operator at a time.
General recommendations
WARNING!
Risk of Þ re outbreaks and explosions.
Ŷ The vacuum cleaner can only be used when active
sources of ignition are not going to be vacuumed.
Ŷ It is forbidden to vacuum the following materials:
ƒ burning materials (embers, hot ashes, lighted
cigarettes, etc.);
ƒ flammable liquids, aggressive fuels (e.g.
gasoline, solvents, acids, alkaline solutions,
etc.).
Ŷ It is forbidden to vacuum the following materials:
explosive dust or dust liable to spontaneous
ignition (such as magnesium or aluminium dusts,
etc.).
Ŷ The vacuum cleaner is not suitable for vacuuming
explosive or similar substances, as established
by the laws governing explosive substances,
particularly: liquid fuels and mixtures of
ß ammable dust and liquids.
WARNING!
Emergency
If an emergency situation occurs:
Ŷ Þ lter breakage;
Ŷ Þ re outbreak;
Ŷ short-circuit;
Ŷ engine seizing;
Ŷ electric shock;
Ŷ etc.;

Vacuuming of liquids
The machine vacuums the liquids and deposits them into the
container (2).
Vacuuming of liquids and shavings (optional)
When the machine vacuums the material (shavings and
liquids) which was produced during the machining process,
the solid part is kept in the shaving container (optional),
whereas the liquid part ß ows into the liquid container
underneath (2).
Before turning on the vacuum cleaner, Þ t the vacuum hose
into the inlet (4) and then Þ t the required tool on to the end
part (refer to the manufacturer’s accessory catalogue or
Service Centre).
The ß oat (11) stops the vacuuming operation (the vacuuming
units remain activated) when the liquid container (2) is full; it
is then necessary to turn off the vacuum cleaner and to empty
the liquid container (2).

Setting to work - connection to the power
supply
WARNING!
Ŷ Make sure that the vacuum cleaner is in perfect
condition before starting work.
Ŷ Before plugging the vacuum cleaner into the
electrical mains, make sure that the voltage rating
indicated on the data plate corresponds to that of
the electrical mains.
Ŷ Plug the vacuum cleaner into a socket with a
correctly installed ground contact/connection.
Make sure that the vacuum cleaner is off.
Ŷ The plugs and connectors of the connection
cables must be protected against splashed water.
Ŷ Make sure that connections to the electrical
mains and plug are correct.
Ŷ Use the vacuum cleaners only when the cables
that connect to the electrical mains are in perfect
condition (damaged cables could lead to electric
shocks!).
Ŷ Regularly check that the electric cable does not
show signs of damage, excessive wear, cracks or
ageing.
WARNING!
When the vacuum cleaner is operating:
Ŷ Do not crush, pull, damage or tread on the cable
that connects to the electrical mains.
Ŷ Only disconnect the cable from the electrical
mains by removing the plug (do not pull the
cable).
Ŷ Only replace the electric power cable with one of
the same type as the original (H05 VV-F); the same
rule applies if an extension is used.
Ŷ The cable must be replaced by the manufacturer’s
Service Centre staff or by equivalent qualiÞ ed
personnel.
Extensions
If an extension is used, make sure it is Þ t for the power draw
and protection degree of the vacuum cleaner.
Minimum section of extension cables:
Maximum length = 20 m
Cable = H05 VV-F
Max power (kW) 3 5 15 22
Minimum section (mm
2
) 2.5 4 10 16
WARNING!
Sockets, plugs, connectors and installation of the
extension cable must maintain the IP protection
degree of the vacuum cleaner, as indicated on the data
plate.
WARNING!
The vacuum cleaner’s power socket must be protected
by a differential circuit-breaker with surge current
limitation, that shuts off the power supply when the
current discharged to the ground exceeds 30 mA for
30 msec. or an equivalent protection circuit.
WARNING!
Never spray water on the vacuum cleaner: this could
be dangerous for persons and could short circuit
the power supply. Consult the latest edition of the
European Union Directives, the Laws in the country of
use and the current standards in force (UNI - CEI - EN),
in particular the European standard EN60335-2-69.
