Do not tilt the cleaner if there is liquid in
the dirt tank.
Do not use a crane hook to lift the cleaner.
Never spray water on to the upper section
of the vacuum cleaner.
Connectors and couplings of power supply
cords and extension leads must be water-
tight.
Contact with live components leads to seri-
ous or even fatal injuries.
As an extension lead, only use the version
speci ed by the manufacturer or one of a
higher quality.
When using an extension lead, check the
minimum cross-sections of the cable:
Cable length
rst
up to 20 m
20 to 50 m
Arrange the electrical parts (sockets, plugs
and couplings) and lay down the extension
lead so that the protection class is main-
tained.
It is recommended that the vacuum cleaner
should be connected via a residual current
circuit breaker.
Touching a faulty mains connecting lead can
result in serious or even fatal injuries.
Do not damage the mains power lead (e.g.
by driving over it, pulling or crushing it).
Regularly check whether the power cord is
damaged or shows signs of ageing.
Have the faulty mains connecting lead re-
placed by your PROTOOL service represent-
ative or a quali ed electrician prior to using
the appliance again.
The appliance socket is only designed for
the purposes de ned in the operating in-
structions. The connection of different ap-
pliances can result in damage.
Prior to plugging in an appliance, always
switch off the vacuum cleaner and the ap-
pliance that is to be connected.
Read the operating instructions to the ap-
pliance to be connected and observe the
safety notes contained in these.
The appliance can be damaged as a result
of being connected to an unsuitable mains
