1. General instructions
Clean the device (see "CLEANING").
WARNING
For maintenance by the user, the vacuum cleaner must
be taken apart, cleaned and maintained, to the extent
possible, without endangering maintenance staff or other
people.
Preventive measures
Appropriate preventive measures include: cleaning the
device before disassembly; providing local fi ltered forced
ventilation where the vacuum cleaner is disassembled;
cleaning of the maintenance area and providing suitable
personal protective clothing and equipment.
When carrying out maintenance or repairs, it is essential
to dispose of any contaminated objects that cannot be
adequately cleaned. These objects must be disposed
of using impermeable bags and in accordance with the
applicable regulations for removing such waste.

Remove battery.
(3) Open the clamps. Remove the upper part of the device
from the tank.
(4) Unscrew the screws on the bottom of the upper part
(see Fig. 9) so that the fi lter and fi lter bracket can be
removed.
(5) Seal the removed fi lter immediately in a dust-tight
plastic bag and dispose of it in accordance with
regulations.
(6) Insert a new fi lter into the fi lter holder and use the screw

3. Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that
they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws
.

be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so
could result in serious hazard.
4. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very "heart" of the power
tool.
Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not
become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.
5. Inspection of terminals (tool and battery)
Check to make sure that swarf and dust have not
collected on the terminals.
On occasion check prior, during and after operation.
CAUTION
Remove any swarf or dust which may have collected on
the terminals.
Failure to do so may result in malfunction.
6. Check for Dust
Dust may be removed with a soft cloth or a cloth
dampened with soapy water. Do not use bleach,
chlorine, gasoline or thinner, for they may damage the
plastics.
7. Storage
Store the power tool and battery in a place in which
the temperature is less than 40°C and out of reach of
children.
NOTE
Storing lithium-ion batteries.
Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully
charged before storing them.
Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of batteries with
a low charge may result in performance deterioration,
signifi cantly reducing battery usage time or rendering
the batteries incapable of holding a charge.
However, signifi cantly reduced battery usage time may
be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the
batteries two to fi ve times.
If the battery usage time is extremely short despite
repeated charging and use, consider the batteries
dead and purchase new batteries.
CAUTION
In the operation and maintenance of power tools, the
safety regulations and standards prescribed in each
country must be observed.
