• For all repairs and for replacement of the power cable if damaged contact your dealer or an
authorised service centre to maintain the efficiency of your appliance and the validity of the
guarantee. For the same reasons, you are always recommended to use original spare parts.

use. This could be unpleasant if directed at people, particularly the face.

The manufacturer reserves the right to modify appliances and tools without warning.
Original spare parts and tools should be used to maintain the efficiency of your appliance. Failu­re to do so invalidates the guarantee.

ASSEMBLY AND PREPARATIONS
FOR USE

Important: during assembly and preparation
for use, make sure the appliance is UN­PLUGGED from the mains.

• Release the cover by pulling the clips
outwards (fig.1).

• Remove the diffuser cone, suction con­veyor and, finally, the bottom plate (fig.

2).

• Turn the appliance upside down and fix
the four castors in place by pushing them
into the holes in the bottom of the drum
(fig.3).

• Make sure the polyurethane filter is in
place on the motor housing (fig 4).

• Insert the bottom plate 12, fixing it to the
drum as shown in fig. 5.Insert the diffuser
cone 10 and suction conveyor 11 (fig. 6).

Dry vacuuming

• To use the appliance as a dry vacuum
cleaner, pour about two litres of water in­to the drum. The water should never rea-

ch above the bottom plate (12).

The water filters the dust, preventing it
from being dispersed in the atmosphere.

• Fasten the head back on the drum.

• Attach the hose to the suction port (fig. 7).
To remove, press the locking fins and pull
(fig. 8).

• Fit one end of the telescopic tube to the
handgrip and the other to the most suita­ble tool for the operation to be perfor­med.

• Plug the appliance into the mains socket
and turn on by pressing the ON/OFF
switch on the head.
