Dry vacuum cleaning
Caution
Please note the following when switch-
ing from wet to dry vacuum cleaning:
If you vacuum dry dust while the filter ele-
ment is still wet the filter will become ob-
structed and may be damaged beyond
repair.
Dry the wet filter properly before use or
replace it with a dry one.
Change the filter, if required, according
to instructions under the section "Main-
tenance and Care".
Wet suction (optional)
Note
For sucking in wet substances, the vacu-
uming material container available in the
standard model must be replaced with a
"container for wet and dry vacuuming" that
is available as an accessory.
The floater switch in the container for wet
and dry vacuuming interrupts the suction
flow when the maximum filling level is
reached.
When the suction flow is interrupted by the
floater switch:
Switch off IV 100/40 or IV 100/55 at the
ON/OFF switch.
For IV 100/75, press "Switch-off appli-
ance" switch.
Drain off the liquids by opening the
drain valve located at the base of the
container.
Shutting down
For IV 100/75, press "Switch-off appli-
ance" switch.
Switch off the appliance using the On/
Off switch.
If necessary, dismantle the accessory
and rinse it with water and let dry.
Empty the vacuuming material contain-
er (refer chapter "Emptying vacuuming
material container").
Vacuum and wipe the appliance inside
and outside.
Emptying the vacuuming material
Note
The vacuuming material container needs to
be emptied if it is full until about 3 cm below
the upper rim.
Switch off the appliance and secure it
using the parking brakes at the guide
rollers.
Open the vacuuming material container
upward at the lock (see figure).
Pull out the vacuuming material con-
tainer from the appliance using the han-
dle that has been provided for the
purpose.
Empty the vacuuming material contain-
er and insert it back into the appliance
using the reverse sequence.
Dust collection bag
You can insert a dust collector in the vacu-
uming material container to empty the ap-
pliance without causing dust.
Insert the dust collection bag into the
container and attach it carefully to the
container wall.
Put over the edge of the bag over the
rim of the vacuuming material contain-
er.
Insert the vacuuming material container
back into the appliance.
After finishing use, close the dust col-
lection bag and remove it from the vac-
uuming material container.
Dispose off the dust collection bag with
its contents according to the applicable
regulations.
