Start up

 If necessary, peel the adhesive label in
the relevant national language off the
accompanying adhesive label sheet
and paste it over the German text on
the appliance.
Note: Additional regulations can be appli-
cable to dusts with an ignition capacity be-
low 1mJ.
Note: You can use this appliance to take up
all types of dust up to dust class H. The use
of a safety filter bag is required by law.
Note: As an industrial vacuum cleaner the
appliance is suitable for vacuuming up dry,
combustible dusts with MAK values.
 Bring the appliance to working position
- secure it, if required, with parking
brakes.
 Insert the suction hose into the suction
hose connection.
 Attach the desired accessoried to the
suction hose.
 Ensure that the vacuum material con-
tainer has been inserted properly.

Power connection

Caution
The highest allowed net impedance at the
electrical connection point (refer to techni-
cal data) is not to be exceeded. In case of
confusion regarding the power impedance
present on your connection, please contact

Safety filter bag
You must insert a safety filter bag into the
vacuuming material container to empty the
appliance without causing dust:
 Insert the safety filter bag into the con-
tainer and attach it carefully to the con-
tainer wall.
 Put over the edge of the bag over the
rim of the vacuuming material contain-
er.
 Insert the vacuuming material container
back into the appliance.
 After use, close the safety filter bag and
remove it from the vacuuming material
container.
 Dispose of the safety filter bag with its
contents according to the applicable
regulations.
Monitoring the suction performance
The machine is equipped with a suction
power monitor. If the air speed in the suc-
tion hose falls below 20 m/s, the manome-
ter will display 19.5 kPa:
Perform the following activities to regain the
prescribed air speed of more than 20 m/s:
 Switch off the appliance using the On/
Off switch.
 Clean the filter (see chapter "Cleaning
the filter").
 Check suction hose and attachments
for blocks.
If these measures do not lead to the de-
sired reduction in pressure display:
 Switch off the appliance and replace the
filter (see Chapter "Exchanging/replac-
ing the filter")
