5.1 Assembling the equipment
Fitting the equipment head (Fig. 6)
The equipment head (3) is fastened to the tank
(8) by the locking hooks (7). To remove the equipment head (3), open both of the locking hooks (7)
and take off the equipment head (3). When fi tting
the equipment head (3), make sure that both of

5.2 Fitting the fi lters
Caution!
Never use the wet and dry vacuum cleaner without a fi lter.
Always ensure that the fi lters are securely seated.
Fitting the foam fi lter (Fig. 7)
For wet vacuuming, slip the supplied foam fi lter
(16) over the fi lter basket (Fig. 2/4). The pleated fi lter (15) already fi tted upon delivery is not suita-
ble for wet vacuuming.
Fitting the pleated fi lter (Fig. 8)
For dry-vacuuming, slip the pleated fi lter (Fig. 15)
over the fi lter basket (Fig. 2/4). The pleated fi lter
(15) is suitable for dry-vacuuming only.
Fitting the dirt bag
(not supplied)
For vacuuming fi ne, dry dirt it is recommended
that you also fi t the dirt bag. This will ensure that
the pleated fi lter (15) does not clog up so quickly
and help maintain the vacuuming power. It also
makes it easier to dispose of the dust. Slip the
dirt bag over the vacuuming hole. The dirt bag is
suitable for dry-vacuuming only.
5.3 Fitting the suction hose (Fig. 9-12)
Connect the suction hose (11) to the corresponding connector on the wet and dry vacuum cleaner, depending on the application required.
