compliance with the valid regulations for the disposal
of such waste.
6.2 Servicing
If the dust extractor's suction performance decreases,
and even cleaning the filters 5 (fig. 2) after
replacement of the filter bag 8 (fig. 4) does not
increase the suction performance any more, the
folded filter cartridges 5 (fig. 2) must be renewed.
Usually it is sufficient to clean the folded filter
cartridges 5 from time to time, using a soft brush and
water. Allow to dry before reinserting, to prevent the
dust from clinging to the moist filter.
To avoid heavy soiling of container and filter, remove
dry material from the container before vacuuming
liquids. Dry suction cleaning only with completely
dried-out device. Do not clean container and
accessories with abrasive commercial detergents.
Regularly clean the water sensors 13 (fig. 3) and
check them for possible damages.
6.3 Motor protection filter
The folded filter cartridges are located next to the
motor protection filter 6 (fig. 2). If they are heavily
soiled, rinse out and reinsert in dry condition.
Damaged motor protection filters must be replaced.

8 Troubleshooting
Danger
Determining the causes for existing
defects and eliminating these
always requires increased attention
and caution. Pull the mains plug
beforehand!
A reduction of the suction power may have various
causes:
-
Container or filter bags 8 (fig. 4) must be emptied,
cleaned or replaced.
-
Folded filters 5 (fig. 2) are heavily soiled. Clean as
described in section 5.1. After longer use and
frequent cleaning, the filters' permeability may
have reduced to such an extent that they should
be replaced.
-
Motor protection filter 6 heavily soiled.
-
Extraction hose clogged.
If the reduced suction power cannot be attributed to
any of the above-mentioned causes, do not intervene
with the device any further. Inappropriate intervention
may impair the electrical safety.
Take the device to a MAFELL customer service shop.
