Safety information

Caution! When using power tools, observe the following basic safety measures for the
prevention of electric shocks and the risk of injury and fire:
To avoid accidents and injuries:
- This device can be used by children aged 8 and over and by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities or with a lack of experience or knowledge, if they are supervised or have been instructed regarding safe use of the device and understand the resulting risks. Children are not permitted to play with the device. Cleaning and user maintenance are not to be undertaken by children without supervision.
- Never leave a machine which is ready for operation unattended at the workplace.
• People and animals must not be vacuumed with the machine. - Do not vacuum any hot, incandescent, flammable, explosive materials, or those which endanger health. This includes hot ashes, petrol, solvents, acids or caustic solutions. Personal injury could occur.
- Nozzles and suction tubes must not reach head level whilst in use. Personal injury could occur.
To avoid accidents and injuries from electric shocks:
- Ensure that the mains cable is not damaged by being pulled over sharp edges, by jamming, or by pulling on the cable.
• Before each use, check the
power supply lead and the extension cable for damage and ageing. Do not use the equipment if the cable is damaged or worn. Danger of electric shock hazard.
- If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a customer service agent of the same or a similarly qualified person in order to prevent hazards.
- Switch the machine off and disconnect the mains plug:
- when the machine is not in use,
- before the machine is opened up,
- for all maintenance and cleaning work,
- if the connecting cable is damaged or tangled up.
- Never use the mains lead to pull the plug out of the socket or to pull the appliance. Protect the cable from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
• Make sure that the mains voltage corresponds with the information on the rating plate. - Only plug the appliance into a socket which is safeguarded.
- The device must only be connected to a mains socket via a residual-current circuit breaker (RCD) with a rated leakage current of not more than 30 mA.
- Do not expose the unit to rain

CAUTION! The following states how damage to the appliance and possible injury to people can be avoided:
GB IE
- Ensure that the machine is correctly assembled and the filters are in the correct position.
- Do not use without the filter. This could damage the machine.
- Only use replacement parts and accessories delivered and recommended by our Service Centre. The use of parts by other manufacturers immediately renders the guarantee void.
- Only have repairs carried out at our authorised customer service points.
- Observe the instructions for cleaning and maintenance of the machine.
- Store the appliance in a dry place and out of reach of children.
B Assembly

-
Place the motor housing (4) on top of the container (7) and close it with the clips (6).
The motor head (4) can only be placed in one position on the container (7). The air flow control (3) and the device socket (11) must be above the suction connection (10). The water duct connector (5) must be above the suction connector (10). -

Breaks
If you want to store away the assembled suction equipment when you take a break, you can plug the suction pipe into the accessory holders (8a) on the castors.

Dry vacuuming
Vacuuming with the paper filter bag:

To avoid the fluted filter becoming clogged, we recommend the additional use of a paper filter bag (brown).
- Fold the side flaps on the paper filter bag (12) down on the perforation.
- Unfold the paper filter bag (12) completely and invert it over the internal suction fitting of the suction connection (10).
The sealing ring on the filter bag opening must completely enclosed the arm on the suction nozzle.

A fine dirt filter bag made of micro filter fleece is also optionally available, which can be used in place of the included paper filter bag (see "Replacement parts/Accessories").
Vacuuming fine dust:
Certain suction processes (e.g. sanding paints and varnishes, drilling walls, grinding or drilling hard wood) can pose a risk due to hazardous dust.
We recommend using the following optional filter combination, which is available, for fine dust (see "Spare parts/Accessories"):
- Fine dust filter bag made of fleece (optionally available see "Replacement parts/Accessories"), which is used in stead of the paper filter bag (12) included in the scope of delivery.

Wet suctioning

For wet suctioning, always attach the water tank (19).
- For wet suctioning, place the foam filter (11) onto the filter basket (4a). To prevent the foam filter (11) from tearing,
- Only insert dry filters;
- Before inserting, twist the edge of the filter slightly and then roll it back.
- Suctioning up (draining): Place the suction hose (16) on the handle part (15) into the water tank and suction up the water.
- Empty the dirt container immediately after vacuuming, as it is not designed to store liquids (see "Cleaning/Maintenance").

Never reach into the water to be suctioned up. Danger of electric shock.

When the container (7) is full, the suction opening is shut off by a float, and suction is then cut off. Switch the device off, remove the water tank (B 19) and the motor head (A 4) and empty the container (A 7). Afterwards, make sure to re-assemble the device completely.
GB IE

If foam or liquid exits, switch off the machine immediately.

Carpet cleaning

For carpet cleaning, only use the washer nozzle with the attachment for hard surfaces (24) or the washer nozzle for cleaning upholstery (23).

To prevent the foam filter (11) from tearing,
- Only insert dry filters;
- Before inserting, twist the edge of the filter slightly and then roll it back.
-
Fill the water tank (B 19) with fresh water (max. 3 l). Pay attention to the markings on the container (A 19).

Pull (do not push!) the nozzle (A 23/24) in rows over the carpet/ upholstery.
Overlap the rows a bit to ensure thorough cleaning.
