Caution: Appliance socket
The appliance socket is designed for electrical auxiliary equipment; see technical data for reference.
Prior to plugging in an appliance, always switch off the machine and the appliance that is to be connected.
Read the operating instructions for the appliance to be connected and observe the safety notes contained in these.
An earthed appliance socket is integrated in the machine. An external power tool can be connected there. The socket
features permanent power on when the switch is set to the
cord.
Australia: The socket has a 5 Amp thermal fuse to protect the machine against overload. If the power consumption gets
too high the thermal fuse activates and cuts the power to the socket outlet. The thermal fuse can be deactivated again
by pressing the knob.

, the machine can be switched on and off from the connected power tool. Dirt is picked up from the
source of dust immediately. To comply with regulations, only approved dust-producing tools should be connected. The
maximum power consumption of the connected electrical appliance is stated in the Specifications section.

Push & Clean
The PC machine is equipped with a semiautomatic filter cleaning system, Push & Clean. The filter cleaning system must
be actuated when the suction performance starts to fade. Regular use of the filter cleaning feature maintains suction
performance and increases the lifetime of the filter. For instructions, see the quick reference guide.
AFC - Auto Filter Cleaning
The AFC machine is equipped with an automatic filter cleaning system, Auto Filter Cleaning. A frequent cleaning cycle
will automatically run during operation to ensure that suction performance is always at its best.
If suction performance decreases or in very dusty applications, a manual filter cleaning operation is recommended:
Switch off the machine.
Close the nozzles or suction hose opening with the palm of your hand.
Turn the switch to position I and let the machine operate at full speed for approx. 10 seconds with the suction hose
opening closed.
If suction power is still reduced take out the filter and clean it mechanically or replace the filter. For certain applications,
such as wet pick-up, it is recommended to turn off the Auto Filter Cleaning system.
Antistatic connection
Caution: The machine is equipped with an antistatic system to discharge any static electricity that may develop
during dust pick-up.
The antistatic system is located in the front part of the motor top and creates an earth ground connection to the inlet
fitting of the container. For correct operation, the use of an electrically conductive or antistatic suction hose is
recommended. When inserting the optional disposal bag make sure the antistatic connection is maintained.
