FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

WARNING:
• Before plugging the cleaner, always make sure that
the cleaner is switched off. Plugging the cleaner with
the switch on may cause an unexpected start resulting
in serious personal injury.
Switch action (Fig. 1)
To start the cleaner, rotate the switch lever to the "I" side.
To stop it, rotate the switch lever to the "O" side. (Fig. 2)
The suction force can be adjusted according to your work
need.
Suction force can be increased by turning the suction
force adjusting knob from the
symbol.
Also, set the hose diameter selection dial to the hose's
diameter that you are going to use.
Hose diameter selection dial
Turn the dial direction in accordance with the hose you
use.
NOTE:
Do not set the dial at the middle. Always turn either side
according to the hose diameter.
Warning beep
There are two types of beeping sound. One is short
beeps, and the other is long beep.
When the air flow speed falls under 20 m/s, the cleaner
emits short warning beeps for safety reasons. When it
sounds, check the hose diameter selection dial or if the
suction force is not too low. If the beeps keep sounding,
perform maintenance or ask your local service center.
When the tank is filled with liquid, the cleaner emits long
warning beep.
When the tank is full and the beep sounds, switch off the
cleaner and empty the tank.

Connecting electric power tools
WARNING:
• Make sure that both the cleaner and the electric power
tool are switched off before connecting or
disconnecting. Connecting the power tool to the
cleaner with both of them being switched on may cause
unexpected and sudden start resulting serious
personal injury.
• Never connect an electric power tool with an input
power exceeding that specified in the
"SPECIFICATIONS" to the socket of the cleaner by
turning the suction force adjusting knob. Connecting
the electric power tool exceeding the specified input
power may cause overheat and damage to the cleaner.
• When connecting a grounded tool, insert a plug with a
grounding plate to the socket of the cleaner.
The cleaner can be connected to an electric power tool up
to input power shown in the "SPECIFICATIONS". (Fig. 3
& 2)
1. To connect an electric power tool, open the outlet cap
and insert the power tool plug into the socket of the
cleaner. (Fig. 4)
2. When connecting an electric power tool, secure the
power supply cord and hose by the hose bands at
regular distance. It prevents the hose from entangling
the power supply cord.
3. Rotate the switch lever to the "AUTO" position.
4. Move the suction force adjusting knob to the position
suitable for the input power of the electric power tool
you intend to use.
5. Switching on and off of the connected electric power
tool simultaneously brings the cleaner switching on
and off action. The cleaner still works for a few
seconds even after the electric power tool is switched
off.
6. After use, disconnect the power tool from the socket of
cleaner.
7. Switch off the cleaner after use.
Auto-suction stop during suction
operation
WARNING:
• Do not pick up foam or soapy liquid. Picking up
foam or soapy liquid can cause foam to come out of air
exit before the auto-suction stop works. Continuing to
using in this condition may cause an electric shock and
breakage of the cleaner.
The cleaner has a mechanism that prevents water from
immersing into the motor when picking up more than a
certain amount of water.
When the tank is full with liquid, the cleaner emits long
warning beep. Switch off the cleaner and empty the tank
when this beep sounds.
Usage of base hook
CAUTION:
• Be careful not to pinch your fingers when closing
the base hook. Failure to do so may cause personal
injury.
