ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

•Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before carrying out any work on the tool.

•Always remove dust ahead of time, as suction power will be reduced if there is too much dust in cleaner.

•Always be sure to check that both filter and prefilter are loaded correctly prior to using cleaner. If they are not loaded correctly, dust will get into the motor housing, and cause motor failure.

If the following examples occur, filter and prefilter are not loaded correctly. Reload them correctly to rectify problem.

	becomes small. Dry it out thoroughly before
	use. An insufficiently dried filter may cause
	poor suction and shorten the service life of
	the motor.
