Start up
The appliance allows 2 operating modes:
1 Industry vacuum cleaner mode (socket
not used)
2 Dedusting mode (socket used)
Connect the suction hose and insert the
suction nozzle or connect to the dust-
generating device depending on the op-
erating mode.
WARNING

place while vacuuming.
WARNING
Do not vacuum without the filter elements;
otherwise, the suction motor can get dam-
aged and this can be hazardous to health
on account of increased release of fine dust
particles.
Anti-static system
Static charge is deflected by providing
earthing to the connection nozzles. This
prevents the formation of sparks and cur-
rent shocks with attachments with electro-
statically grounded accessories included in
the delivery.
