Original Instruction Manual
5.1.1 Picking up dry sub -
stances
CAUTION!
Do not pick up fl ammable
substances.
Before picking up dry sub-
stances, always ensure that a
fi lter bag is inserted in the tank
(see section 9.5 "Accessories"
for order number). Disposal of
the picked up material is then
simple and hygienic.
After picking up liquids, the fi lter
element is wet. A damp fi lter
element clogs more quickly
when dry substances are
picked up. For this reason the
fi lter element should be washed
and dried or replaced by a dry
element before dry substances
are picked up.
5.1.2 Picking up liquids
CAUTION!
Do not pick up fl ammable
liquids.
Before liquids are picked up,
always remove the filter bag/
waste bag and check that the
float

7.2.4 and 7.2.5 “Replacing the
filter element“.)
The use of a separate fi lter ele-
ment or fi lter screen is recom-
mended.
If foam appears, stop work im-
mediately and empty the tank.
To reduce the amount of foam,
use foam killer Nilfi sk Foam
Stop (see section 9.5 "Accesso-
ries" for order number).
