4.1 WORKING WITH DUST BAGS

If sucking up dry dust an optional dust bag can be used to collect the dust and ease the disposal. To insert the dust bag take off the head (see also figure 3). Insert the dustbag like shown on figure 6. Put on the head again and secure the head with the clamps.

4.2 DRY OR WET FLOOR SUCTION

FIG. 7

	To vacuum insert the hose (A)
		FIG. 8
	into the suction inlet (B).
	To remove the hose twist and
	pull in one movement to
	remove (C)

FIG. 9	4.4 BLOWING - INSERTING AND REMOVING THE
	HOSE
	The machine can also be used for blowing. In some cases it is
	easier first to blow the debris away and then afterwards

ENGLISH

4.5 TURNING THE MACHINE ON

FIG. 10

The machine is turned on/off by pressing the start/ stop button (A).

The machine can optionally be equipped with LEDs with power control (C). By turning the knob the suction of the machine can be controlled. The suction performance is also shown by the LEDs. If equipped with LED the 1st LED from left, when the machine is plugged in, will be ON.

To use the optional socket (B) see next chapter.

The machine can optionally be configured with an indicator (D). The indicator goes on, when the underpressure is high. This can be due to the filter being clogged and needs to be cleaned (see later chapter) or the bag is full and need to be replaced.

FIG. 11

4.6 MACHINE WITH SOCKET AND AUTO START/STOP (OPTIONAL)

The machine can optionally be equipped with a socket that can be used in connecting with a power tool. Connect the power tool to the socket (A). Remove the handtube and fix the conical adapter (B). Insert the conical adapter to the power tool (C). Turn the machine to AUTO mode with the switch (D). The machine will then start, when the power tool is turned on and stop with a delay (in order to empty the hose) when the power tool is turned off.

! WARNING - Do not operate without filter basket and float, as they prevent liquid from entering the impeller and damaging the motor. Do not suck up any liquids without a sponge filter installed.

! WARNING - To reduce the risk of back injury or falls, do not lift a vacuum cleaner heavy with liquid or debris. Scoop or drain enough contents out to make the vacuum cleaner light

enough to lift in a comfortable manner.

NOTE: IF ACCIDENTALLY TIPPED OVER, THE VACUUM COULD LOSE SUCTION. IF THIS OCCURS, PLACE VAC IN UPRIGHT POSITION AND TURN SWITCH OFF. THIS WILL ALLOW THE FLOAT TO RETURN TO ITS NORMAL POSITION, AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CONTINUE OPERATION.

! WARNING - Read the Safety Warnings and Instructions concerning the types of wet materials that cannot be vacuumed with this product.

ENGLISH

! DANGER - This equipment incorporates parts such as switches, motors or the like that tend to produce arcs or sparks that can cause an explosion. Do not pick up flammable, combustible, or hot materials. Do not use around explosive liquids or vapors, as electrical devices produce arcs or

sparks which can cause a fire or explosion - do not use at filling stations or anywhere gasoline is stored or dispensed.

This vacuum cleaner has a built in thermal overload protector to protect the motor from high temperatures. This can occur under heavy use. If the motor temperature shuts off during operation, turn the switch off and allow the motor to cool for 5 minutes. Turn switch on and resume operation.

4.7 EMPTYING THE TANK FOR LIQUID

To empty the tank for liquid unscrew the drain plug (A) and remove it.

FIG. 12

Discharge water from filter.

	4.8 EMPTYING THE TANK FOR DUST/DEBRIS
	To empty the tank for dust/debris take off the head (see
	chapter 3.1). If using a dust bag remove the dust bag and
	insert a new.
	Machines with 20l and 30l plastic tanks are equipped with a
FIG. 13	handle (A) that can be using during disposal of the
	dust/debris.

ENGLISH

5. FILTER CLEANING

The machine can optionally be equipped with a semi automatic filter cleaning system or fully automatic filter cleaning system.

5.1 MANUAL FILTER CLEANING

When sucking fine dust the filter will eventually get clogged and suction will go down. The filter therefore needs to be cleaned to restore suction. If the machine is not equipped with semior fully automatic filter cleaning system (see next chapters), the filter can be cleaned in the following manual way. Turn the knob (A) and remove the knob from the filter disc (B). Remove the filter (C). Clean the filter under cold water (D). Let is dry (E) until completely dry. Install backwards by adding filter (F). Fixing the filter disc (G) and securing it with the knob (H).

FIG. 14

5.2 SEMI AUTOMATIC FILTER CLEANING (OPTIONAL)

When the machine is equipped with the semi automatic filter cleaning system, the filter can be cleaned by closing the inlet of the handtube (A). However, first turn the machine to max. power if equipped with power control (see figure 10). Close the inlet which can be done with your hand or the receptable/hole in the machine

(B) can be used. After closing the inlet wait 2-3 seconds until the maximum underpressure has been built up. Press the filter cleaning FIG. 15 button (C) 5 times fast after each other. This action will clean the

filter and restore suction performance.

5.3 FULLY AUTOMATIC FILTER CLEANING (OPTIONAL)

The fully automatic filter cleaning system cleans the filter automatically approx. every 20 seconds. The filter cleaning takes less than a second and a very little interruption of the suction performance takes place during the filter cleaning. A small “bang” can be heard. The automatic filter cleaning system works best, when the underpressure in the machine is high. If filter for some reason should be clogged and suction is low then turn the machine to max. power (if configured with power controller) then close the inlet of the machine and wait until a small “bang” can be heard. The filter will then be cleaned and suction restored.

7. TROUBLE SHOOTING

Repair or service of electrical components such as cord or motor, must only be carried out by an authorized service center.

Vacuum does not start:	• Check to see that the plug is correctly inserted in the electrical outlet and
		that there is power at receptacle.
	• A circuit breaker may have tripped. Check the circuit breaker box.
	• The cord or plug may be damaged. Call the Customer Service Department to
		get the nearest authorized service center.
Motor does not run in	• Power tool defective or not connected properly. Check that the power tool
automatic mode		works or that the plug is inserted correctly.
	• The power rating of the electrical tool is too low. Note that minimum powe
		rating is P>50W
Motor stops:	•	A thermal overload protector will shut off the motor if the motor
		temperature is too high. If this occurs, turn the switch off. Wait 10 minutes
		for the motor to cool. Turn switch on and resume operation.
Suction power is reduced:	• The tank may be full and needs to be emptied. See chapter 4.7 and 4.8.
	• The wands, hose and nozzle may be clogged and need to be cleaned.
	• Any of the above may be damaged and need to be replaced.
	• The filter may be clogged. Use the Filter Cleaning System (see chapter 5), to
		clean the filter.
	• Check the filter and replace it, if it’s necessary. Make sure that is installed
		properly.
	• The hose connection is loose and need to be tightened.
Static shocks:	•	If the environment is too dry, add moisture to air. If possible, use a
		humidifier.
	• In case the relative humidity of air is low, please note that this situation will
		not have any effect on use of the vacuum cleaner.
