Extraction of dusts resulting from running power tools

(see figure G)

 An adequate ventilation rate (L) must be provided for

when the outgoing air is circulated. Observe the re-

spective national regulations.

A socket outlet with earthing contact 4 is integrated in the

vacuum cleaner. An external power tool can be connected

there. Observe the maximal allowable load of the connected

power tool.

– Mount the tool sleeve 20 (see “Mounting the Tool Sleeve”,

page 19).

– Insert the tool sleeve 20 into the vacuum connection of the

power tool.

– To start the vacuum cleaner’s automatic

Start/Stop feature, set the mode selector

switch 6 to the “Automatic Start/Stop” sym-

bol.

–To start the operation of the vac, switch on the power tool

connected to the socket 4. The vacuum cleaner starts au-

tomatically.

– Switch the power tool off to end the vacuuming.

The delayed action shutdown of the Automatic Start/Stop

continues to run for up to 15 seconds in order to extract re-

sidual dust from the vacuum hose.

– To switch the vacuum cleaner off, set the mode

selector switch 6 to the “Off” symbol.

Wet Vacuuming

 Do not vacuum inflammable or explosive fluids; for ex-

ample, benzene, oil, alcohol, solvents. Do not vacuum

hot or burning dust. Do not operate the machine in

rooms where the danger of an explosion exists. The

dusts, vapours or fluids can ignite or explode.

 The vacuum cleaner may not be used as a water pump.

The vacuum cleaner is intended for vacuuming air and wa-

ter mixtures.

 Before any work on the vacuum cleaner itself, pull the

mains plug.

Note: The requirements for the ingress degree (dust

category L) have only been proven for dry vacuuming.

– Remove the disposal bag 23 or the dust bag and empty the

container 1 before wet vacuuming.

Note: For easier disposal when vacuuming liquid-solid mix-

tures, use a wet filter bag (accessory), which separates liq-

uids from solids.

– Mount the rubber lips into the floor nozzle (see “Inserting

the Rubber Lip”, page 19).

– Switch the automatic filter cleaning (AFC) off (see “Deacti-

vating the AFC”, page 20).

The vacuum cleaner is equipped with filling-level sensors 35.

When the maximum filling height is reached, the vacuum

cleaner switches off. Set the mode selector switch 6 to the

“off” symbol.

Note: When vacuuming non-conductive liquids (e. g. drilling

emulsion, oil and grease), the vacuum cleaner is not switched

off when the container is full. The level must be monitored

continuously and the container emptied in time.

To prevent the formation of mould after wet vacuuming:

– Take out the flat-fold filter 24 and allow it to dry well.

– Remove the vacuum cleaner lid 10 open the filter cover 34

and allow both components to dry thoroughly.

Filter Cleaning

Automatic filter cleaning (see figure H)

In automatic filter cleaning mode (AFC = Automatic Filter

Cleaning), the flat-fold filter 24 is cleaned every 15 seconds

by means of air blasts (pulsating noise).

The filter cleaning system must be actuated at the latest when

the vacuuming performance is no longer sufficient.

Regular use of the filter cleaning feature increases the tool life

of the filter.

To achieve ideal filter tool life, deactivate the automatic filter

cleaning in exceptional cases, e. g., when vacuuming pure liq-

uids or when working with a paper filter bag.

A flat-fold filter contaminated only on the surface is fully func-

tional. Manual cleaning of the flat-fold filter by striking/tap-

ping against it or blowing it out is not necessary, and can even

damage the filter.

Note: The automatic filter cleaning is factory-set.

Switching the automatic filter cleaning on/off is only possible,

when the VAC is running.

– Deactivating the AFC

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

 Before any work on the vacuum cleaner itself, pull the

mains plug.

 For safe and proper working, always keep the vacuum

cleaner and ventilation slots clean.

 Wear a dust protection mask when maintaining and

cleaning the vacuum cleaner.

If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to

be done by Bosch or an authorized Bosch service agent in or-

der to avoid a safety hazard.

A dust-technical inspection is to be carried out at least once

every year by the manufacturer or an instructed person, e. g.

for damage of the filter, tightness against leakage of the vacu-

um cleaner and function of the control/monitoring unit.

For category L vacuum cleaners that were in contaminated

environments, the exterior as well as all machine parts should

be cleaned or treated with sealants. When performing mainte-

nance and repair work, all contaminated components that

cannot be cleaned to satisfactory must be disposed of. Such

components must be disposed of in impermeable plastic bags

conforming with the valid regulations for the disposal of such

waste.
