Vacuum cleaner used for absestos

On vacuum cleaners with an accessory for the removal of
asbestos dust the ABS container insert or the protective bag
system must always be used. An exhaust connection must be

exhausted from the working area. The exhaust hose can be
directed to the open air or to a ventilation system installed in
the working area.
The exhaust connection for the air outlet must be fitted with a
