About the cyclone attachment
Using the cleaner with the cyclone attachment installed
reduces the amount of dust that enters the capsule,
which helps to prevent the suction force from weaken-
ing. In addition, cleaning after use is also simple.
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool. If the
battery cartridge is left inserted, the cleaner may start
unexpectedly and result in injury.
CAUTION:
Clean the mesh filter of the
cyclone attachment and the filters of the cleaner
unit when they become clogged. Continued use in
the clogged condition may result in heating or smoke.
NOTICE:
When the cyclone attachment is
attached, do not use the cleaner in the horizontal
or upward facing condition. Doing so may cause
the mesh filter to become clogged.
NOTICE:
Always use the cleaner with the filters
installed, even when using the cyclone attach-
ment. Using the cleaner without the filters installed
may result in a motor malfunction.
NOTE: Check that the cyclone attachment, cleaner,
and straight pipe are locked properly before use.
NOTE: Empty the dust case of the cyclone attachment
and the capsule of the cleaner when dust has accumu-
lated. Continued use will result in weakened suction force.
NOTE: You can also use the cyclone attachment with-
out lock function.
NOTE: To install or remove the cyclone attachment, refer to
the section "Installing or removing the cleaner attachment".

tons lock with a click.

NOTE: Check that the cyclone attachment, cleaner,
and straight pipe are locked properly before restarting
operation.
NOTE: If the suction force does not recover even
after disposing of the dust and cleaning the mesh
filter, check whether dust has accumulated in the
capsule of the cleaner or clogging has occurred.
Cleaning
When the dust case becomes dirty or the mesh filter is
clogged, remove and wash them with water. (Refer to
"Disposing of dust" for the removal procedure.)
Dry the parts thoroughly before reinstallation and use.
