2 Description
2.1 Use of the product as directed
The appliance is a universal industrial vacuum cleaner with an effective filter cleaning system for dry dust. It is suitable
for wet and dry vacuum cleaning applications.
The appliance can be powered by the electric mains supply or operated cordlessly using Hilti 36V Li‑ion batteries.
When powered by the electric mains supply, the appliance can be used simultaneously as a charging station for all
Hilti Li‑ion batteries (14V/22V/36V). When the adapter plate and pushbar are fitted (accessories), the vacuum cleaner
can be used as a trolley to transport up to three Hilti toolboxes.
The appliance is suitable for collecting the slurry created by wet drilling or wet cutting operations on mineral materials
using Hilti diamond coring or Hilti diamond sawing equipment and for collecting large quantities of dry mineral dust
when working with Hilti diamond grinders and cutters, rotary hammers and dry cutting core bits.
The VC 20‑UM‑Y and VC 40‑UM‑Y are suitable for picking up dry and non-flammable dusts, liquids, wood chips or
shavings, mineral dusts containing quartz and hazardous dusts with exposure limit values (e.g. MAK or AGW values)
≧0.1 mg/m³ (dust class M as per IEC/EN 60335-2-69).
Picking up any other hazardous substances is not permissible.
Picking up oil or liquids with a temperature of over 60°C is not permissible.
When picking up dusts with an exposure limit value, steps must be taken to ensure adequate air exchange in the room
if the exhaust air from the appliance is released into the room (please observe the locally applicable regulations).
The appliance must not be used to pick up materials that present a risk of explosion, glowing or burning materials,
flammable materials (exception: wood chips or shavings), aggressive dusts (e.g. magnesium or aluminium dust, etc.)
or aggressive liquids (e.g. gasoline, solvents, acids, coolants or lubricants, etc.).
Do not operate the appliance when laid on its side (always operate in upright position).
The total weight of the appliance including the waste material picked up must not exceed 80 kg.
