Wet vacuum cleaning

→ Attach the accessories to vacuum moisture or wetness to the suction pipes or directly to the handle.

Caution:

Do not use a filter bag!

Immediately switch the appliance off if foam forms or liquids escape!

Note: If the container is full a float closes the suction opening and the appliance works at a higher speed. Switch off the appliance immediately and empty the container.

Working with electrical power tools

→ Adapt the adapter to the connection diameter of the electric tool using a knife if necessary.
→ Illustration C1

A) Plug the enclosed adapter onto the handle of the suction hose and connect the electric tool with the connection.

→or

B) Use the flexible tool hose to gain more flexibility in your work. Connect this hose to the suction hose and to the adapter and then to the connection of the electric tool.

→ Illustration C2

For appliances with built-in socket:

Connect the mains plug of the electric power tool to the vacuum cleaner.

→ Illustration C 3

Switch the appliance on (move the rotary switch to the left to position + MAX) and start working.

Note: The suction turbine starts with a delay of 0.5 seconds after the electric tool has been switched on. After the electric tool has been switched off, the suction turbine will continue to run for approx. 5 seconds to suck in the remaining dirt from the suction hose.

Efficient filter cleaning

If the filter cleaning indicator is red, initiate the filter cleaning.
