1. Pull the filter sieve from the suction
pipe and clean with water.
Remove the filter sieve com-
pletely to clean it.
During cleaning and operation,
pay attention that no water and
no particles of dirt get into the
suction pipe and into the suc-
tion turbines.
2. Dry the filter sieve after cleaning. Do
not replace when dripping wet!
5.6.5 Cleaning the openings to the
fresh water tank
The openings between the recovery
and fresh water tank (Fig. 31/2) serve
for ventilation between the two tanks.
They must be checked regularly for ac-
cumulations of dirt and cleaned as nec-
essary.
