Noise/Vibration Information
Noise emission values determined according
to EN 60335-2-69.
Typically the A-weighted sound pressure level of the dust ex-
tractor is 74 dB(A). Uncertainty K = 3 dB. The noise level
when working can exceed the volume stated. Wear hearing

Assembly
Pull the plug out of the socket before cleaning or per-
u
forming maintenance on the vacuum cleaner, making
tool adjustments, changing accessories or putting
away the vacuum cleaner. This safety measure prevents
the vacuum cleaner from being started accidentally.
Fitting the vacuuming accessories (see figure A)
The vacuum hose (16) is equipped with a clip system which
can be used to connect vacuuming accessories (dust extrac-
tion adapter (14), curved nozzle (17)).
Fitting the nozzles and tubes
– Push the curved nozzle (17) onto the vacuum hose (16)
until you hear both snap fasteners (26) on the vacuum
hose engage.
– Then attach the required extraction accessory (floor
nozzle, crevice nozzle, suction tube, etc.) firmly to the
curved nozzle (17).
– To remove the accessory, press the snap fasteners (26)
inwards and pull apart the components.
Fitting the dust extraction adapter
– Push the dust extraction adapter (14) onto the vacuum
hose (16) until you hear both snap fasteners (26) on the
vacuum hose engage.

Fitting the vacuum hose
Vacuuming function (see figure B1)
– Push the vacuum hose (16) into the hose connection
piece (2) and turn it as far as possible in the direction of
rotation .
Note: The friction generated by the dust in the vacuum hose
and accessory during extraction causes an electrostatic
charge that the user may experience as static discharge (de-
Minimum
pending on environmental factors and their physiological
power
state).

Bosch generally recommends using an anti-static vacuum
hose (accessory) to vacuum up fine dust and dry materials.

Blowing function (see figure B2)
The vacuum cleaner has a blowing function. Do not
u
blow exhaust air out into the open air. Only use the
blowing function with a clean hose. Dust can be hazard-
ous to health.
For the blowing function, only insert the blowing hose (32)
(accessory) with the appropriate attachment, as illustrated
here. The vacuum hose supplied must not be used for blow-
ing.
– Switch on the dust extractor for at least 5 seconds (mode
selector switch (4) set to the "extraction" symbol) to
clean the vacuum hose (16) of dust deposits.
– Turn the vacuum hose (16) as far as possible in the direc-
tion of rotation
piece (2).
– Push the blowing hose (32) into the hose connection
piece (12) and turn it as far as possible in the direction of
rotation .
Inserting/removing the plastic bag or dust bag
(dry vacuuming) (see figures C1–C4)
For dry vacuuming, you can insert a plastic bag (18) or a
dust bag (accessory) into the container (1). This makes it
easier to dispose of coarse dirt.
Inserting the plastic bag
– Open the catches (8) and remove the top part of the va-
cuum cleaner (7).
– Insert the plastic bag (18) into the container (1) with the
inlet facing upwards. Secure the plastic bag under the
suction hole (27) using the clips (28).
– Make sure that the plastic bag (18) touches all the inside
walls of the container (1).
– Fold the rest of the plastic bag (18) over the edge of the
container (1).
– Put the top part of the vacuum cleaner (7) on and close
the catches (8).
Removing and sealing the plastic bag
– Open the catches (8) and remove the top part of the va-
cuum cleaner (7).
and pull it out of the hose connection
