Operation
Pull the plug out of the socket before cleaning or per-
u
forming maintenance on the vacuum cleaner, making
tool adjustments, changing accessories or putting
away the vacuum cleaner. This safety measure prevents
the vacuum cleaner from being started accidentally.
Start-up
Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage of the
u
power source must correspond with the data on the type
plate of the vacuum cleaner.
The dust extractor must categorically not be used in poten-
tially explosive areas.
To ensure optimum suction power, you must always fully un-
wind the vacuum hose (16) from the top part of the dust
extractor (7).
Products that are only sold in AUS and NZ: Use a resid-
u
ual current device (RCD) with a nominal residual current
of 30 mA or less.
Do not use damaged filters (e.g. no cracks, small
u
holes, etc.). Replace any damaged filters immedi-
ately.

– Mount the dust extraction adapter (17).
– Insert the dust extraction adapter (17) into the extraction
outlet of the power tool.
Note: When working with power tools that have a low air
feed into the vacuum hose (e.g. jigsaws, sanders, etc.), the
false air intake (31) of the vacuum hose (16) must be
opened. This will improve the total output of the dust ex-
tractor and the power tool.
To do this, turn the ring above the false air intake (31) until
the opening is at its maximum size.

off" symbol.
Wet Extraction
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum combustible
u
or explosive liquids, such as petrol, oil, alcohol or
solvents. Do not vacuum hot, burning or explosive
dust. Do not operate the vacuum cleaner in areas sub-
ject to explosion hazards. Dust, vapours and liquids can
ignite or explode.
The vacuum cleaner must not be used as a water
u
pump. The vacuum cleaner is designed for vacuuming air
and vacuuming water mixtures.

u
work on the dust extractor.

is reduced when the maximum fill level is reached.Switch the
vacuum cleaner off immediately (on/off switch (5)/mode se-
lector switch (5) to the "vacuum" symbol).
