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".
1. To connect an electric power tool, open the outlet cap
and insert the power tool plug into the socket of the
cleaner. (Fig. 3 & 2)
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. (Fig. 4)
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.
NOTICE:
• Do not apply an excessive force on the base hook. The
excessive force on the base hook may damage the
base hook. Close the base hook when not in use.
Opening the base hook allows the following usage.
1. Storing the power supply cord (Fig. 5)
NOTICE:
• Do not use the cleaner or a connected electric
power tool with a power supply cord wound on the
base hook. Using the cleaner or the connected electric
power tool with power supply cord may cause damage
the power supply cord.
2. Storing the front cuffs (Fig. 6)
Front cuffs 22, 24 and 38 can be stored (up to two at a
time.)
3. Storing the hose (Fig. 7)
4. Resting a reasonable size of electric power tool
for the base hook, such as circular saw. (Fig. 8)
Locking or unlocking the caster (Fig. 9)
To lock the caster with a stopper, lower the stopper lever
and the caster no longer will rotate. To release the caster
from the locked position, raise the stopper lever.
Locking the caster is convenient when storing the cleaner,
stopping the work on the way and keeping the cleaner
still.
To operate the stopper, move it by hand.
NOTICE:
• When moving the cleaner, make sure that the caster is
unlocked. Moving the cleaner with the caster in the
locked position may cause damage to the caster.
Cap
There is a cap on the mounting port. The cap prevents the
vacuumed dust from getting out from the cleaner.
ASSEMBLY

• This unit may contain hazardous dust. When replacing
filter elements and dust bag, always use a P2-
respirator.
• Always be sure that the cleaner is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the cleaner.
