– Pull the edge of the full plastic bag (18) backwards out of
the clips (28).
– Carefully take the plastic bag (18) out of the container
(1) without damaging it.
– When doing so, make sure that the plastic bag does not
scrape against the intake port (27) or other sharp ob-
jects.
Changing/inserting the dust bag (accessory)
– Open the catches (8) and remove the top part of the va-
cuum cleaner (7).
– Pull the full dust bag (18) backwards out of the connec-
tion flange. Close the opening in the dust bag by turning
down the top. Take the closed dust bag out of the con-
tainer (1).
– Place the new dust bag over the vacuum cleaner's con-
nection flange. Make sure that the entire length of the
dust bag touches the inside wall of the container (1).
– Put the top part of the vacuum cleaner (7) on and close
the catches (8).
Fitting the rubber lip (wet vacuuming) (see
figure D)
– Use a suitable tool to lift the brush inserts (23) out of the
floor nozzle (24).
– Place the rubber lips (22) in the floor nozzle (24).
Note: The textured side of the rubber lips must be facing
outwards.
Inserting the wet filter (wet vacuuming) (see
figures E1–E2)
To make disposal easier when vacuuming water-solid mix-
tures, the vacuum cleaner has a wet filter (20) that separ-
ates the liquid from the solids.
– Open the catches (8) and remove the top part of the va-
cuum cleaner (7).
– Turn the filter holder (29) as far as possible in the direc-
tion of rotation and take the filter holder, together with
the main filter (19), out of the top part of the vacuum
cleaner (7).
– Place the wet filter (20) over the filter basket (30).
– Put the top part of the vacuum cleaner (7) on and close
the catches (8).
Operation
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.
When operating the dust extractor, ensure that the lockable
castors on the dust extractor are blocked to prevent the dust
extractor from rolling away unintentionally. Test the correct
functioning of the castors on the relevant surface before op-
eration.
Bosch Power Tools
Start-up
Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage of the
u
power source must correspond with the data on the type
plate of the vacuum cleaner.
Make sure you inform yourself about the applicable
u
regulations/laws on how to handle harmful types of
dust in your country.
The dust extractor may be used for vacuuming and extract-
ing the following materials:
– Dusts with an exposure limit of > 1 mg/m
Products that are only sold in AUS and NZ: Use a resid-
u
ual current device (RCD) with a nominal residual current
of 30 mA or less.
The dust extractor must categorically not be used in poten-
tially explosive areas.
To ensure optimum suction power, you must always fully un-
wind the vacuum hose (16) from the top part of the dust ex-
tractor (7).
Dry vacuuming
Note: When carrying out dry extraction, ensure that the main
filter (19) is inserted into the dust extractor.
Vacuuming up dust deposits
– To switch on the dust extractor, set the
mode selector switch (4) to the "extraction"
symbol.
– To switch off the dust extractor, set the
mode selector switch (4) to the "switch off"
symbol.
Extracting dust that accumulates from working power
tools (GAS 15 PS) (see figure F)
There must be a sufficient air exchange rate in the
u
room when the exhaust air comes back into the room.
Be aware of the corresponding national regulations.
The dust extractor has a plug socket with a protective earth
contact (3) that can be used to connect an external power
tool. Observe the maximum permitted connected load of the
connected power tool.
– Fit the dust extraction adapter (14).
– Insert the dust extraction adapter (14) into the extraction
outlet of the power tool.
Note: When working with power tools that have a low air
feed into the vacuum hose (e.g. jigsaws, sanders, etc.), the
false air intake (31) of the dust extraction adapter (14) must
be opened. This will ensure that the semi-automatic filter
cleaning function works correctly.
To do this, turn the ring above the false air intake (31) until
the opening is at its maximum size.
– To activate the automatic start/stop
function of the dust extractor, set the
mode selector switch (4) to the "auto-
matic start/stop" symbol.
