Maintenance, cleaning and
decontamination
WARNING!
To guarantee the safety level of the vacuum
cleaner, only original spare parts supplied by
the manufacturer should be used.
WARNING!
The precautions described below must be
taken during all maintenance operations,
including cleaning and replacing the primary
and absolute filters.
WARNING!
The maintenance, cleaning and
decontamination operations must
only be performed with the vacuum
cleaner turned off and the plug
disconnected from the power socket.
It is absolutely forbidden to
perform maintenance with the
plug connected to the socket.
Danger of electric shock!
■ If the user is performing the maintenance
operations, the vacuum cleaner must be
disassembled, cleaned and overhauled as far
as reasonably possible without hazards for the
maintenance personnel or other people. The
suitable precautions include decontamination
before disassembling the vacuum cleaner,
adequate filtered ventilation of the exhaust
air from the room in which it is disassembled,
cleaning the maintenance area and suitable
personal protection.
■ The external parts of the vacuum cleaner must
be decontaminated by cleaning and vacuuming
methods, dedusted or treated with sealant before
being taken out of a hazardous zone.
■ All parts of the vacuum cleaner must be
considered as contaminated when they
are removed from the hazardous zone and
appropriate actions must be taken to prevent dust
from dispersing.
■ When maintenance or repair procedure are
carried out, all the contaminated elements that
cannot be properly cleaned, must be eliminated.
■ These elements must be disposed of in sealed
bags in accordance with applicable regulations
and local laws on the disposal of such material.
■ This procedure must also be followed when the
filters are eliminated (primary and absolute filters).
■ Compartments that are not dust-tight must
be opened with suitable tools (screwdrivers,
wrenches, etc.) and thoroughly cleaned.
■
A check must be carried out by the manufacturer
or the personnel of the same at least once a year.
For example: Check the air filters to find out
whether the air-tightness of the vacuum cleaner
has been impaired in any way and make sure that
the electric control panel operates correctly.
WARNING!
In particular, on Class H vacuum cleaners, the
filtering efficiency of the vacuum cleaner must
be checked at least once a year, or more often
if required by national legislation. The test
method for checking the filtering efficiency of
the vacuum cleaner is indicated in standard
EN 60335-2-69, par. 22.AA.201.2.
If the test isn’t passed, it must be repeated
after the class H filter has been changed.
WARNING!
This Class H vacuum cleaner can collect dust
hazardous for the health. The procedures for
servicing and emptying the vacuum cleaner
including removing the dust bag, must only be
performed by specialised personnel wearing
protective clothing. Do not use without the
complete filter system in place.
