1 Important safety instructions
Symbols used to mark
instructions
Before using the
vacuum cleaner,
always read the
operating in-
structions and
keep them read-
ily available.
This symbol is
used to mark
safety instruc-
tions that must
be observed to
prevent damage
to the vacuum cleaner and its
performance.
This symbol is
used to mark
safety instructions
that must be ob-
served to prevent
damage to persons.
This symbol in-
dicates tips and
instructions to
simplify work and to ensure safe
operation.
For your own safety
Only allow the vacuum cleaner
to be used by persons who have
been trained in its use and who
have been explicitly authorized
to use it.
Despite its simple handling the
vacuum cleaner is not suitable
for children.
The use of the vacuum cleaner
is subject to valid national regu-
lations. Besides the operating
instructions and the binding
accident prevention regulations
valid in the country of use, ob-
serve recognized regulations for
safety and proper use.
Do not use any unsafe work
techniques.
Purpose and intended use
The vacuum cleaners described
in this operating manual are
suitable for
– commercial use, e.g. in
hotels, 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).
Permanent filters should be
replaced by a specialist only in
suitable rooms (e.g. contamina-
tion stations).
The following materials should
not be picked up by the vacuum
cleaner:
- hot materials (burning ciga-
rettes, hot ash, etc.)
- flammable, explosive, ag-
gressive liquids (e.g. petrol,
solvents, acids, alkalis, etc.)
- flammable, explosive dust
(e.g. magnesium or alumini-
um dust, etc.)
When dust removers are used,
the rate at which air is ex-
changed in the room must be
adequate if the exhaust air from
the vacuum cleaner is blown into
the room (please observe regu-
lations valid in your country).
Before starting work, the operat-
ing staff must be informed on
- use of the vacuum cleaner
- risks associated with the ma-
terial to be picked up
- safe disposal of the picked
up material.

Dust Class H (high). The
dusts which belong to
this class are: dusts with
OEL values, all carcinogenic
dusts and dusts which are mixed
with pathogenic agents. Vacu-
ums for Dust Class H are tested
in their entirety and have a max-
imum degree of permeability of
0.005%. The disposal must be
dust free.
Precautions and safety
regulations when using the
vacuum cleaner
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 Nilfisk-Ad-
vance-Service or an electrician
to avoid danger before use of
the vacuum cleaner is contin-
ued.
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).
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
If foam develops or liquid
emerges, stop work immediately
and empty the dirt tank.
Regularly clean the built in float
(IVB 3-H) and level indicator
hose (IVB 5-H/7-H) to limit the
water level and check that they
are not damaged.
See section 5 for information on
handling liquids and (hazard-
ous) dust.
Electrical components
Check the rated voltage of the
vacuum cleaner before con-
necting it to the mains supply
system. Ensure that the voltage
shown on the rating plate cor-
responds to the voltage of the
local mains power supply.
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 con-
nected via a residual current
circuit breaker. This stops the
supply of electricity if the leak-
age current to earth exceeds 30
mA for 30 ms or it has an earth
tester circuit.
When using an extension lead,
check the minimum cross-sec-
tions of the cable:
Cable length
m
Cross section
<16 A <25 A
up to 20 m
ø1.5mm² ø2.5mm²
20 to 50 m
ø2.5mm² ø4.0mm²
Arrange the electrical parts
(sockets, plugs and couplings)
and lay down the extension lead
so that the protection class is
maintained.
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.

Tool socket
Use 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 clean-
er
2. Switch off the appliance to
be connected.
CAUTION!
Follow the operating instructions
and safety instructions for appli-
ances connected to the power
tool socket.
Maintenance, cleaning and
repair
Only carry out maintenance
work described in the operating
instructions.
Always pull out the mains plug
before cleaning and mainte-
nance of the vacuum cleaner.
During maintenance and clean-
ing, handle the vacuum cleaner
in such a manner that there is
no danger for maintenance staff
or other persons.
In the maintenance area
– use filtered compulsory ven-
tilation
– wear protective clothing
– clean the maintenance area
so that no harmful substanc-
es get into the surroundings.
Before removing the vacuum
cleaner from the area contami-
nated with harmful substances:
– 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.
During maintenance and repair
work all contaminated parts that
could not be cleaned satisfacto-
rily must be:
– packed in well sealed bags
– disposed of in a manner that
complies with valid regula-
tions for such waste remov-
al.
A dust test must be performed at
least once every year by Nilfisk-
Advance service or a trained
person. This test includes, for
example, whether there is dam-
age to the filter, the vacuum
cleaner is sealed to the air and
the control equipment works
properly.
Accessories and spare parts
Use only the brushes supplied
with the vacuum cleaner or
specified in the operating manu-
al. The use of other brushes can
adversely affect safety.
Use only original Nilfisk-Ad-
vance accessories and spare
parts (see section 9.5). The use
of other parts can adversely af-
fect safety.
