To prevent static electricity your
hand must touch the metal inlay on
the underside of the vacuum hand
piece. Be certain to continuously
touch this inlay when vacuuming
fine dust, flour or sawdust as these
materials are more likely to create a
static discharge. To further prevent
static discharge, pull the vacuum
along by the hose with one hand
while continuing to hold the hand
piece in the other hand.
Adjusting the suction (see fig. 11)
You can adjust the suction power to suit
the type of flooring. By reducing the
