Dust Filter Cleaning And Integrity Check - Nilfisk-ALTO FLOORTEC 760 User Manual

DUST FILTER CLEANING AND INTEGRITY CHECK

The dust filter must be regularly cleaned to maintain the
efficiency of the vacuum system. Follow the recommended filter
service intervals for the longest filter life.
WARNING!
Wear safety glasses when cleaning the filter.
Do not puncture the filter.
Clean the filter in a well-ventilated area.
Wear appropriate dust mask to avoid breathing in
dust.
NOTE
Besides the standard paper filter, polyester filter is
also available.
1. Drive the machine on a level floor and ensure that it cannot
move.
2. Turn the ignition key (2) to "0".
3. Remove the hopper (14).
4. Disengage the levers (A, Fig. 11) and turn the filter holder
(B) downwards.
5. Remove the dust filter (C).
6. In an outdoor area, clean the dust filter by shaking it on
a level and clean surface, tapping the side (E, Fig. 12)
opposite to the wire gauze (F).
7. Complete the cleaning procedure by using compressed
air (G) at maximum 6 Bar, blowing only from the side
protected by the wire gauze (F).
Moreover, according to the filter type, observe the following
cautions:
• Paper filter (standard): Do not use water or detergents
to clean it, otherwise it can be damaged.
• Polyester filter (optional): For a better cleaning, it is
allowed to wash the filter with water and non-lathering
detergents. This provides better quality cleaning but
reduces the life of the filter, which will have to be
replaced more frequently. The use of inadequate
detergents can damage the filter.
8. Check the filter body for tears. Clean the gasket (H) along
its perimeter and check it for integrity. If necessary, replace
the filter.
9. If necessary, clean the filter compartment rubber gasket
(D, Fig. 11) along its perimeter and check it for integrity. If
necessary, replace it.
10. Assemble the components in the reverse order of
disassembly.
Pre-filter Cleaning (optional)
11. Perform steps 1 to 3.
12. Remove the pre-filter (K, Fig. 13) and clean it with
compressed air at maximum 6 Bar.
13. Assemble the components in the reverse order of
disassembly.
