5. Before starting the equipment

5.1 Assembling the equipment

Fitting the appliance head (Fig. 1/5)

The equipment head (3) is fastened to the tank (7) by the locking hook (6). To remove the equipment head (3), open the locking hook (6) and take oﬀ the equipment head (3). When ﬁ tting the equipment head (3), make sure that the locking hook (6) locks into place correctly.

Fitting the wheels (Fig. 7-13)

Place a split pin for ﬁ tting the wheels (29) through the appropriate hole in the axle (31) and ﬁ t a washer (28), a wheel (22) and a washer to the axle (31) (Fig. 7-8). Now slide the axle (31) through the guides provided for it on the underside of the tank (7) (Fig. 9). Fit a washer and the second wheel (22) to the empty end of the axle (31) and secure it with the other washer (28) and the split pin (29) (Fig. 10-12). Push the covers

(30) on to the outside of the wheels (22) so that the detents engage on the covers (30) for the wheel (22). (Fig. 13)

Fitting the castors (Fig. 6/Item 13)

Fit the castors (13) into the appropriate mountings on the underside of the tank (7). Push the castors (13) ﬁ rmly into the mounting until they engage with a clicking noise (Fig. 6).

Fitting the push bar (Fig. 18)

Fit the push bar handle (35) onto the push bar mounts (38) of the tank and secure the push bar with the supplied screws (32) and fastening nuts (36) as shown in Figure 18.

5.2 Fitting the ﬁ lters Important!

Never use the wet/dry vacuum without a ﬁ lter. Always ensure that the ﬁ lters are securely seated.

Fitting the foam ﬁ lter (Fig. 14/Item 15)

For wet-vacuuming, slip the supplied foam ﬁ lter (15) over the ﬁ lter basket (Fig. 4/Item 4).

Fitting the pleated ﬁ lter (Fig. 15)

For dry-vacuuming, slip the pleated ﬁ lter (Fig. 18) onto the ﬁ lter basket (Fig. 4/Item 4). The pleated ﬁ lter is suitable for dry-vacuuming only.

Fitting the dirt bag (Fig. 17/Item 14)

For vacuuming ﬁ ne, dry dirt it is recommended that you ﬁ t the dirt bag (Fig. 2/Item 14). Slip the dirt bag (14) over the vacuuming hole. The dirt bag (14) is suitable for dry-vacuuming only. The dirt bag makes it easier to dispose of the suckedin dust.

5.3 Fitting the suction hose (Fig. 17/Item 10)

Connect the suction hose (10) to the corresponding connector on the wet/dry vacuum, depending on the application required.

Vacuuming

Connect the suction hose (10) to the suction hose connector (8).

Blowing

Connect the suction hose (10) to the blow connector (9).

Air regulator (Fig. 2/Item 27)

The air regulator (27) can be ﬁ tted between the

Open the water drain screw (17) by turning it anti-

clockwise and drain the liquid. suction hose (10) and the suction tube (11). The suction power of the nozzle can be inﬁ nitely adjusted using the air regulator (27). When wet vacuuming, make selective use of the air regulator to suck in air as well as liquids. This will help to take some strain oﬀ the equipment when vacuuming liquids.

When wet-vacuuming, the ﬂ oating safety switch

(Fig. 4/Item 5) closes when the maximum tank

level is reached. At the same time, the suction

noise of the equipment will change and become

louder.

You must then switch oﬀ the equipment and

empty the tank.

5.4 Suction nozzles

Combination nozzle (Fig. 2) The dual-purpose nozzle (12) is for vacuuming solids and liquids over medium to large areas.

Danger!

The wet/dry vacuum is not suitable for the

vacuuming of combustible liquids. For wet

vacuuming, use only the supplied foam ﬁ lter.

Crevice nozzle (Fig. 2)

The crevice nozzle (16) is designed for vacuuming solids and liquids in corners, edges and other areas that are diﬃ cult to access.

Upholstery nozzle (Fig. 2)

The upholstery nozzle (23) is specially designed for vacuuming solids on upholstery and carpets.

6.4 Blowing

Connect the suction hose (10) to the blow

connector (9) on the wet/dry vacuum.

6.5 Charging the Li battery pack

The corresponding instructions can be found

in the original operating instructions for your

charger.

Fitting the battery (Fig. 16)

Flip up the battery cover (19) as shown in Figure

16. Slot the two rechargeable batteries into the mounts.

6.6 Battery capacity indicator (Fig. 21 / item

39)

Press the battery capacity indicator switch (40).

The battery capacity indicator (39) shows the

charge status of the battery using 3 LEDs.

6. Operation

6.1 On/Oﬀ switch (Fig. 1/Item 2)

Switch position 0: Oﬀ Switch position I: Vacuum setting 1 Switch position II: Vacuum setting 2

6.2 Dry vacuuming

Use the pleated ﬁ lter (18) for dry vacuuming (see point 5.2). The dirt bag (14) can be ﬁ tted in addition when removing particularly stubborn dirt (see point 5.3). Always ensure that the ﬁ lters are securely seated.

All 3 LEDs lit:

The battery is fully charged.

2 or 1 LED(s) lit:

The battery has an adequate remaining charge.

1 LED ﬂ ashing:

The battery is empty, recharge the battery.

All LEDs ﬂ ashing:

The battery pack has been deep-discharged and

is defective. Do not re-use or charge a defective

battery pack.

6.3 Wet vacuuming

For wet-vacuuming, use the foam ﬁ lter (15) (see point 5.2). Check that the ﬁ lter is securely seated at all times.

Water drain screw (Fig.1)

To make the tank (7) easier to empty after wet vacuuming, it is ﬁ tted with a water drain screw (17).
