SERVICING OF DOUBLE-INSULATED
APPLIANCES
A double insulated appliance is marked with one of the
following: The words “DOUBLE INSULATION” or “DOUBLE
INSULATED” or the double insulation symbol (square within a
square).
In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation
are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is
provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means
for grounding be added to the appliance. Servicing a double-
insulated appliance requires extreme care and knowledge of
the system, and should be done by qualified service personnel.
Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be
identical to the parts they replace.
WARNING!
Only motorized nozzle is double insulated. To reduce risk
of electrick shock - connect vacuum cleaner to a properly
grounded outlet.
MAINTENANCE
Always keep the vacuum cleaner in a dry place. The cleaner
is designed for continuous heavy work. Depending on the
number of running hours – the dust filters should be replaced.
The dust bag must be replaced at the same time the Main
filter (sack filter) is replaced/cleaned. Keep the container clean
with a dry cloth, and a small amount of spray polish.
Any
other servicing should be performed by an authorized
service representative.
Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not
working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left
outdoors or dropped into water, return it to a service center.
While the machine is in use do not pull or carry by the
cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull
cord around sharp edges or corners. Keep cord away
from heated surfaces.
The size and quality of the dust bag and fi lters affect the
machine effi ciency. Use of non original dust bags or non
original fi lters can cause restricted air fl ow which may lead to
machine overload.
This machine is equipped with a thermal cut-out to protect
the motor and other vital machine parts from overheating.
Should the machine cut out, you will have to wait at least 5-
10 minutes for it to automatically reset. While you are waiting,
switch the machine off and unplug it, then check the hose,
dust bag and filters to be sure that nothing is blocking the flow
of air through the machine.
When cleaning is performed roll up the extension cord
starting at the machine end and store it at the machine
belt by snapping the nylon tie around the cord.
