OPERATION

WARNING:

• Always use a P2-respirator.

CAUTION:

• If foam or liquid escapes from the tool, switch off

immediately. Continuing to using in this condition may

cause an electric shock and breakage of the cleaner.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING:

• Always use a P2-respirator during performing

maintenance.

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or

maintenance.

• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the

like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.

• A technical inspection, including inspection of filters, air

tightness, and control mechanism, must be performed

at least once a year by an instructed person.

• During maintenance, all contaminated items which

cannot be satisfactorily cleaned must be disposed.

Such items must be disposed of in impervious bags

which accord with your country’s regulations.

• After the operation in the hazardous area, the outside

of the tool must be decontaminated by vacuum

cleaning methods and wiped clean or treated with

sealant before you take the tool out of a hazardous

area. All the parts of the tool must be regarded as

contaminated when removed from the hazardous area,

and appropriate action must be taken to prevent dust

dispersal.

• Change the air filter when the air filter is clogged with

dust or you feel that the cleaner’s performance

declined.

• Check the filters periodically. If there is a tear on it,

replace it immediately.

Removing the air filter

CAUTION:

• Wait for about 5 minutes so that dust in the tank

completely settles down.

• Make sure that the tool is unplugged.

• Be careful not to let the dust enter inside the tank cover

when removing the air filter. (Fig. 18)

Unhook the tank cover and remove it carefully. Put it up

side down. (Fig. 19)

Unlock the filter hooks by flipping the stopper lever.

(Fig. 20)

Cover the air filters with a plastic bag. (Fig. 21)

Remove the air filters from the tank cover carefully and tie

the plastic bag firmly.

Assembling the air filter

When you get the air filter components separately,

assemble them as follows. (Fig. 22)

Put the prefilter over the powder filter. (Fig. 23)

Make sure that the borders of prefilter and powder filter

are set properly.

Installing the air filter (Fig. 24)

Wipe off the seal face.

Set the new air filters and fix them with the filter hooks.

Flip the stopper lever to lock the air filters.

Set the tank cover onto the tank and lock it with hooks.

NOTICE:

• Make sure the hooks on the filters are set at the correct

position. (Fig. 25)

Cleaning the level sensors (Fig. 26)

The level sensors detect liquid when the tank becomes

full with liquid. Clean the level sensors with a soft cloth

from time to time when changing the air filters.

Cleaning the air filters

Clogged filter causes poor suction performance.

Clean out the filters from time to time.

To remove dust or particles adhering to the filters, remove

the prefilter from the air filter. And tap the prefilter several

times. (Fig. 27)

Occasionally wash the powder filter in water, rinse and dry

thoroughly in the shade before use. Never wash filters in a

washing machine.

NOTE:

• Do not rub and scratch the powder filter, the prefilter, or

damper with hard objects such as a brush and a

paddle.

• The filters are consumable and are recommended to

have some spares for them.

Storage of power supply cord (Fig. 28 &

29)

Wind up the power supply cord around the multi-hook or

the base hook.

Storage of accessories

NOTE:

• Do not apply an excessive force to the accessories that

are held by the pipe holder. Applying an excessive

force to these accessories may cause damage to the

pipe holder. (Fig. 30)

Pipe rest can be used to store straight pipe, bent pipe and

others by just inserting these accessories. (Fig. 31)

The pipes can be placed into the pipe holder when also

stopping using the cleaner on the way for a while.

(Fig. 32)

You can place the cap in multi-hook while the hose is
