also do the same if using a fleece filter bag (see "Automatic
filter cleaning (see figure I)", page 24).
The vacuum cleaner contains dust
WARNING
particles that pose a risk to health.
Emptying and maintenance procedures, including the
disposal of dust collectors, should only be carried out by
professionals. Suitable protective equipment is re-
quired. Do not operate the vacuum cleaner without the
complete filter system. Otherwise, you are putting your
health at risk.
Inserting the disposal bag
– Open the catches (15) and remove the top part of the va-
cuum cleaner (13).
– Insert the disposal bag (29) into the container (1) with
the inlet facing forwards.
– Pull the inlet over the connection flange and all the way
into the recess of the connection flange.
– Make sure that the disposal bag (29) touches all the in-
side walls of the container (1).
– Fold the rest of the disposal bag (29) over the edge of the
container (1).
– Put the top part of the vacuum cleaner (13) on and close
the catches (15).
Removing and sealing the disposal bag
– Open the catches (15) and remove the top part of the va-
cuum cleaner (13).
– Pull the full disposal bag (29) backwards out of the con-
nection flange.
– Carefully take the disposal bag (29) out of the container
(1) without damaging it.
When doing so, make sure that the disposal bag does not
scrape against the connection flange or other sharp ob-
jects.
– Remove the adhesive strip cover and tape up the disposal
bag.
Then tie up the disposal bag (29) below the inlet using
the adhesive strip cover that has been removed.
Changing/inserting the dust bag (accessory)
– Open the catches (15) and remove the top part of the va-
cuum cleaner (13).

Fitting the rubber lip (wet extraction) (see figure
E)
Note: The requirements for the degree of penetration (dust
class M) have only been verified for dry extraction.
– Use a suitable tool to lift the brush inserts (33) out of the
floor nozzle (34).
– Place the rubber lips (32) in the floor nozzle (34).
Note: The textured side of the rubber lips must be facing
outwards.
Attaching the L-Boxx (see figure F)
You can attach an L-Boxx to the top part of the dust extractor
for transporting the extractor and to provide space-saving
storage for extractor accessories and/or the power tool.
– Click the L-Boxx onto the adapters (11).
Do not use the dust extractor with an L-Boxx attached.
u
This will raise the dust extractor's centre of gravity. The
extractor may tip over. There is a risk of injury and dam-
age if you do this.
Do not carry the dust extractor by the carrying handle
u
of the attached L-Boxx. The dust extractor is too heavy
for the carrying handle of the L-Boxx. There is a risk of in-
jury and damage if you do this.
Operation
Pull the plug out of the socket before cleaning or per-
u
forming maintenance on the vacuum cleaner, making
tool adjustments, changing accessories or putting
away the vacuum cleaner. This safety measure prevents
the vacuum cleaner from being started accidentally.
Start-up
Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage of the
u
power source must correspond with the information on
the type plate of the dust extractor. Chargers labelled as
230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
Make sure you inform yourself about the applicable
u
regulations/laws on how to handle harmful types of
dust in your country.
The dust extractor may be used for vacuuming and extract-
ing the following materials:
– Dusts with an exposure limit of ≥ 0.1 mg/m
Products that are only sold in AUS and NZ: Use a resid-
u
ual current device (RCD) with a nominal residual current
of 30 mA or less.
The dust extractor must categorically not be used in poten-
tially explosive areas.
To ensure optimum suction power, you must always fully un-
wind the vacuum hose (27) from the top part of the dust ex-
tractor (13).
