To prepare your vacuum cleaner for dry vacuuming, install the cartridge filter over the filter cage. Carefully push filter until it sits flush
forming a tight seal. Tighten the filter retainer lock clockwise to secure against the internal filter cage (Fig. 18).
6.6.2.
Install the dust bag and/or the disposable bag onto the suction port inlet. Refer to sections 5.9 & 5.10 for installation instructions.
IMPORTANT: Before picking up dust with occupational exposure limit values:
Check that all the filters are present and properly fitted.
For safety reasons, a visual warning indicator will activate if the air flow in the suction hose drops to below 20 m/s.
IMPORTANT: Dispose of the dirt in accordance with legal regulations.
WARNING! Remove the electrical plug from the socket before emptying after dry pick-up. After removing the suction hose from the
machine, close the cover gasket.
NOTE: The requirements for the ingress degree (dust category M) have only been certified for dry vacuuming.
IMPORTANT: Check the filter regularly for optimal performance. An old or blocked filter will reduce suction performance.
WARNING! When using the tank liner, be careful not to vacuum heavy or sharp objects.
WARNING! When removing the tank liner, use a P2-respirator, and securly tie a knot in the disposable bag.
DO NOT make contact with any sharp objects and then carefully dispose of in accordance with local disposal regulations.

8. TROUBLESHOOTING

WARNING! Remove from mains supply before Troubleshooting or performing any maintenance.
8.1.
CLEANING PERFORMANCE
8.1.1.
If your motor is operating, then the most likely cause for a loss in suction is a blockage or an opening in the vacuum. To maintain
a high cleaning performance from your machine, it is important to replace or clean cartridge filters as necessary.
8.1.2.
Replace full dust collection bags to prevent performance drops. A performance drop with clean filters can only be caused by a
blockage in the tools or the hose.
