A. Ordinary cleaning
In the case of continuous operation this should be carried out weekly, in the
case of infrequent operation it need be carried out only after use.
Remove impeller, cover the top opening by means of a piece of cardboard
or similar and run the appliance with 1 - 2 liter of lukewarm water max. 40 °C
and a little washing up liquid for some minutes, then rinse with fresh water.
Remove the filter from the suction pipe and clean separately. Rinse the water
reservoir thoroughly with water.
B. Thorough cleaning
If the output of the unit drops because of accumulation of dirt, a more thor-
ough cleaning has to be undertaken. Take off the suction pipe, taking care
to loosen only the three screws visible from the outside. The covered screws
must under no circumstances be slackened off since this would throw the
impeller out of balance.
Clean exit parts to the impeller disks (possibly with a bent strip of sheet metal),
remove residue in the atomizing ring with a hard paint brush.
Rotate impeller by hand and check that is does not chafe against the atom-
izing ring. Flush the unit carefully with mains water
After cleaning, allow the unit to drip off for at least a quarter of an hour in its
normal position. Subsequently run the unit for a quarter of an hour without
water.
C. Periodical thorough cleaning
Every 6 - 12 months: put the unit upside down, detach top part of housing
by loosening the 3 screws in the feet of the unit. Next, only slacken off the
14 mm hexagon head screws in the U-notches, remove the other two. Lift
out the atomizer assembly. Do not open motor cover! Clean atomizing ring
and the inside of the unit. Then proceed as under B.
If loud noises are produced by the bearings (rolling, whistling, humming),
the unit must be switched off immediately and sent to the Condair distributor
for replacement of bearings.
The motor must not be opened, since this would invalidate our guarantee.
In the case of other breakdowns, and in the absence of qualified personnel
and suitable tools, the unit should be sent to the Condair distributor.
The unit should always be sent in the original box, since we cannot be held
responsible for any damage caused during transit. An original packing case,
can be requested from the Condair distributor.
