If used correctly, additional accessories, suction nozzles and suc-
tion hoses can enhance the cleaning action and reduce the cleaning
effort.
Effective cleaning is achieved if you follow just a few guidelines in
combination with your own practical experience in special fields.
Here are some basic tips.
Before picking up dry substances, always ensure that a filter bag is
inserted in the tank (see page 23 for part #'s).
After picking up liquids, the filter element is wet. A damp filter ele-
ment clogs more quickly when dry substances are picked up. For this
reason the filter element should be washed and dried or replaced by
a dry element before dry substances are picked up.
Before liquids are picked up, always remove the filter bag/disposal
bag.
If foam appears at exhaust vents, stop work immediately and pro-
perly dispose of chemicals in the tank in accordance with the ap-
plicable regulations.
