Operation

Connect the unit to a suitable power source, note require-
ments on the ID plate. If an extension cord is to be used,
only waterproof cords are acceptable.
Th e DC 3800c/a is equipped with a fi lter indication lamp
that indicates when the fi lter needs cleaning or changing.
Th e fi lter is generally cleaned once or twice daily during
normal continuous operation. Th e unit must be in operation
to perform fi lter cleaning. Loose the tube from the suction
pipe and press the plastic cage against the black stop head
on the exhaust channel so that maximum pressure is cre-
ated in the cyclone.
Open the port on the side of the unit three to six times. Th is
reverse pulse of air cleans the fi lter.

cable should be disconnected from the supply. Fluids should
not come into contact with the motor. When cleaning with

should be changed every 300 running hours. Use breathing
protection during a fi lter change. Th e operation should be
performed in a closed area. Used fi lters should be sealed in
a plastic sack and disposed of properly.
