1. Dry the filter.
2. Clean the dirt receptacle with a moist
cloth and dry it off.
Switching on the device
1. Plug the mains plug into the socket.
2. Switch on the device via the suction tur-
bine power switches.
Note
Always switch the suction turbines on and
off one after the other. For the correct func-
tion of the pressure gauge for monitoring
the minimum volume flow, all suction tur-
bines must be switched on.
3. Start the vacuuming process.
Reading the minimum volumetric
A pressure gauge showing the vacuum in-
side the device is mounted on the front of
the device. The main filter must be cleaned
when the maximum vacuum (see table) is
reached (see chapter Dedusting the main
filter). This value depends on the device
performance and the suction hose used. If
the vacuum is not significantly reduced by
dedusting, the filter must be replaced (see
chapter Replacing the main filter).
ATTENTION
Exceeding the maximum vacuum
Suction loss
If the specified value is exceeded, the air
speed in the suction hose drops below
20 m/s. Clean or replace the filter.

Dedusting the main filter
The main filter must be cleaned if the pres-
sure gauge shows the maximum vacuum
(see chapter Reading the minimum volu-
metric flow).

6. Pull the dirt receptacle out of the device
by the bow handle.
7. Empty the dirt receptacle. To do this, re-
move the dust bag / safety filter bag if
necessary (see Removing the dust bag/
safety filter bag).
WARNING
Improper handling when locking the dirt
receptacle
Risk of crushing
Under no circumstances should you hold
your hands between the dirt receptacle and
filter ring or allow them to come close to the
lifting mechanism while locking it.
Lock the dirt receptacle by operating the
bow handle with both hands.
8. Fit the dirt receptacle and lock it with the
bow handle.
