Purpose and intended useThe vacuum cleaners described
in this operating manual are
suitable for
– commercial use, e.g. in ho-
tels, schools, hospitals, factories, shops, offices and
rental businesses.
– for separation of any kind
of dust with exposure limits,
including carcinogenic dust
and hazardous dust (dust
class H).
Use the closable plastic sack to
ensure dust-free transport of the
vacuum cleaner and contaminated parts (hose, handpipe, nozzles, etc.). Once the asbestos
vacuum cleaner has been used
in an exclusion area as defined
in TRGS 519, it should no longer
be used in so-called “white” areas. Exceptions are only permitted if the asbestos cleaner has
previously been completely decontaminated by a specialist as

Permanent filters should be replaced by a specialist only in
suitable rooms (e.g. contamination stations).
The following materials should
not be picked up by the vacuum
cleaner:
- hot materials (burning cigarettes, hot ash, etc.)
- flammable, explosive dust
(e.g. magnesium or aluminium dust, etc.)

in the room must be adequate if
the exhaust air from the vacuum
cleaner is blown into the room
(please observe regulations valid in your country).
Before starting work, the operating staff must be informed on
- use of the vacuum cleaner
- risks associated with the material to be picked up
- safe disposal of the picked
up material.
Regulations on asbestos
abatement in the Federal
Republic of Germany
Precautions and safety
regulations when using the
vacuum cleaner
In accordance with TRGS 519
the vacuum cleaner may only
be used for asbestos abatement
and repair work on components
and fittings and machines and
appliances in closed rooms if
the extent of the following work
is only small and the exposure
level is low:
- auxiliary work according to
TRGS 519, No. 2.4
- clearing material out of rooms
contaminated with asbestos
Before start-up
Inspect power cord regularly to
detect signs of damage, e.g.
cracks or ageing.
If the power cord is damaged,
it must be replaced by NilfiskAlto-Service or an electrician to
avoid danger before use of the
vacuum cleaner is continued.
- setting up construction sites
if it cannot be excluded that
asbestos fibres will be released
- cleaning of rooms and objects contaminated with asbestos.
Inspect the vacuum cleaners to
ensure that they are in proper
condition. Plugs and couplings
in power cords must at least
have splash protection.
Never use the vacuum cleaner if
the filter element is damaged.
Picking up liquids
1)
Option depending on model
Use only the type of power cord
specified in the operating manual.
Do not damage the power cord
(e.g. by moving over it or pulling
or crushing it).
Disconnect the power cord by
pulling the plug only (do not pull
or tug the power cord).
If foam develops or liquid emerges, stop work immediately and
empty the dirt tank.
Regularly clean the built in
float (ATTIX 350-0H/3600H/360-2H/550-0H/5502H/751-0H) and level indicator
hose (ATTIX 560-2HXC) to limit
the water level and check that
they are not damaged.
See section 5 for information on
handling liquids and (hazardous) dust.
Electrical components
Check the rated voltage of the
vacuum cleaner before connecting it to the mains supply system.
Ensure that the voltage shown
on the rating plate corresponds
to the voltage of the local mains
power supply.
When using an extension lead,
check the minimum cross-sections of the cable:
Cable lengthmCross section
<16 A<25 A
up to 20 m
20 to 50 m
ø1.5mm²ø2.5mm²
ø2.5mm²ø4.0mm²
Arrange the electrical parts
(sockets, plugs and couplings)
and lay down the extension lead
so that the protection class is
maintained.
If you are using an extension
cord, use only those specified
by the manufacturer or higher
quality ones (see section 9.4
„Technical data“).
It is recommended that the vacuum cleaner should be connected via a residual current circuit
breaker. This stops the supply
of electricity if the leakage current to earth exceeds 30 mA for
30 ms or it has an earth tester
circuit.
Tool socketUse the socket on the vacuum
cleaner for the purpose defined
in the operating instructions
only.
Before plugging an appliance
into the appliance socket:
1. Switch off the vacuum cleaner
Never spray water on to the upper section of the vacuum cleaner. Danger for persons, risk or
short-circuiting.
Observe the latest edition of the
IEC regulations.
2. Switch off the appliance to
be connected.
CAUTION!
Follow the operating instructions
and safety instructions for appliances connected to the power
tool socket.
Maintenance, cleaning and
repair
Only carry out maintenance
work described in the operating
instructions.
– wear protective clothing
– clean the maintenance area
so that no harmful substances get into the surroundings.
Always pull out the mains plug
before cleaning and maintenance of the vacuum cleaner.
Before removing the vacuum
cleaner from the area contami-
nated with harmful substances:
During maintenance and cleaning, handle the vacuum cleaner
in such a manner that there is
no danger for maintenance staff
or other persons.
– clean the outside of the vac-
uum cleaner, wipe it clean or
pack the vacuum cleaner in
well sealed packaging
– and avoid spreading depos-
ited harmful dust.
In the maintenance area
– use filtered compulsory ven-
