5. Safety instructions

⚠️ DANGER!

• The appliance may only be connected to alternating current. The voltage must correspond with the type plate on the appliance.
• Never touch the mains plug and the socket with wet hands.
• Do not pull the plug from the socket by pulling on the connecting cable.
• Check the power cord with mains plug for damage before every use. To avoid risks, arrange immediately the exchange by an authorized customer service or a skilled electrician, if the power cord is damaged.
• To avoid accidents due to electrical faults we recommend the use of sockets with a line-side current-limiting circuit breaker (max. 30 mA nominal tripping current).
• Turn off the appliance and remove the mains plug prior to any care and maintenance work.
  • Repair works may only be performed by the authorised customer service.

⚠ WARNING!

- This appliance is not intended for use by persons with limited physical, sensory or mental capacities or lacking experience and/or skills, unless such persons are accompanied and supervised by a person in charge of their safety or they have received precise instructions on the use of this appliance and have understood the resulting risks.

• Children may only use this appliance if they are over the age of 8 and supervised by a person in charge of their safety, or if they have received instructions on the use of this appliance and have understood the resulting risks.

• Children must not play with this appliance.

- Supervise children to prevent them from playing with the appliance.

- Cleaning and user maintenance must not be performed by children without supervision.

- Keep packaging film away from children - risk of suffocation!

- Switch the appliance off after every use and prior to every cleaning/maintenance procedure.

- Risk of fire. Do not vacuum up any burning or glowing objects.

- The appliance may not be used in areas where a risk of explosion is present.

- Immediately switch the appliance off or pull the power plug if foam forms or liquids escape!

- Do not use abrasives, glass or universal cleaners! Never immerse the appliance in water.

• For cold ash only, see manual!

- Do not vacuum any soot or flammable substances.

• Always check hoses and vacuum cleaner for heating when vacuuming.

• Always empty and clean vacuum cleaner before and after vacuuming.

"Cold ashes" are ashes that have cooled for a sufficient time and no longer contain pockets of embers.

This can be determined by sifting through the ashes with a metal implement before using the equipment. The cold ashes emit no further perceptible heat radiation.

Certain materials may produce explosive vapours or mixtures when agitated by the suction air! Never vacuum up the following materials:

- Explosive or combustible gases, liquids and dust particles (reactive dust particles)

- Reactive metal dust particles (such as aluminium, magnesium, zinc) in combination with highly alkaline or acidic detergents

- Undiluted, strong acids and alkalies

• Organic solvents (such as petrol, paint thinners, acetone, heating oil).

In addition, these substances may cause the appliance materials to corrode.

⚠ WARNING!

This electric tool generates an electromagnetic field during operation. This field can impair active or passive medical implants under certain conditions. In order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with medical implants consult with their physician and the manufacturer of the medical implant prior to operating the electric tool.

Installing the castor mounts (fig. D+E)

1. Turn the stainless steel container (9) upside-down (the machine head (2) must be removed).
2. Push the castor mounts (5) into the cut-outs provided on the wheel mounting base (7). (4x)
3. Fasten the castor mounts (5) with a screwdriver (not included in the delivery) and one screw each (21). (4x)

Installing the castors (fig. F)

Press the four castors (6) into the holes in the castor mounts (5).

Installing the machine head (2) and the handle (1)(Fig. G)

1. Place the machine head (2) on the stainless steel container (8). Secure the machine head (2) with the locking hooks (4). When installing the machine head (2), ensure that the locking hooks (4) latch into place correctly.
2. Place the handle (1) on the machine head (2) and fasten it with two screws (21) with a screwdriver (not included in the delivery).

Installing the foam filter (H) (fig. 3+8)

Never use the device without filter! Always ensure that the filters are correctly fitted!

Installing the foam filter (15): For wet vacuuming, slide the foam filter (15) provided over the filter basket with safety float valve (13).

Installing the HEPA filter (17) (fig. I)

For dry vacuuming, slide the HEPA filter (17) provided over the filter basket with safety float valve (13). The HEPA filter (17) is only suitable for dry vacuuming!

Installing the paper filter bag (16) (fig. J)

It is recommended to use an additional paper filter bag (16) when vacuuming fine, dry dirt. Slide the paper filter bag (16) over the suction opening in the stainless steel container (9). The paper filter bag (16) is only suitable for dry vacuuming. The paper filter bag (16) makes it easier to dispose of the dust collected.

Installing the suction hose (fig. K+L)

Connect the suction hose (14) to the corresponding port, depending on the desired use, on the wet and dry vacuum.

Vacuuming:

Connect the suction hose (14) to the suction hose port (9). To do so, slide the end of the suction hose (14) with the two nipples into the suction hose port (9) (A). Insert the two nipples into the recesses.

Once the suction hose is fully inserted, turn it clockwise (B).

Blowing:

Connect the suction hose (14) to the suction hose port (12). Slide the end of the suction hose (14) with the two nipples into the blowing function connection port (12). Insert the two nipples into the recesses. It is not necessary to turn it here.

Installing the plastic extension tubes (20), handle (20.1), suction hose (14) and nozzle (18+19) (fig. M)

Wet and Dry vacuuming

Assemble the plastic extension tubes (20) by pushing them together.

Connect the assembled plastic extension tubes with the handle (20.1).

Fit the floor nozzle (18) or joint nozzle (19) to the other end of the assembled plastic extension tubes.

Switching on/off (fig. N)

The on/off switch (10) has two settings

- Switch setting 0: Off

- Switch setting I: On

Press the on/off switch (10) to switch on.

Switch setting I: On

Press the on/off switch (10) again to switch the device off. Switch setting 0: Off

Dry vacuuming and ash cleaning (fig. I) ⚠ WARNING!

The vacuuming of glowing embers and of materials that are combustible, explosive or harmful to health is prohibited. There is a risk of injury!

Use the HEPA filter (17) for dry vacuuming and ash cleaning. The paper filter bag (16) can be used in addition. This ensures that the HEPA filter (17) remains free of dust for longer and maintains the vacuum power for longer.

In addition, the disposal of the dust is also easier.

Always ensure that the filters are correctly fitted.

Wet vacuuming (fig. H)

Use the foam filter (15) for wet vacuuming. Ensure that the foam filter (15) is correctly fitted.

If the stainless steel container (8) is full, the safety float valve (13) closes the suction port and suction operation is interrupted.

⚠ WARNING!

The device is not suitable for vacuuming flammable liquids. For wet vacuuming, use the only the foam filter (15) provided. To remove the liquid vacuumed up from the stainless steel container, take off the machine head (2) by releasing the locking hooks (4) from the stainless steel container (8). Pour out the liquid residue.

9. Maintenance and cleaning

⚠ WARNING!
