SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

GROUNDING INSTRUCTSAVE THESE IONS INSTRUCTIONS This vacuum is intended WARNING: for commercial use.
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakedown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Check with a qualified electrican or service person if you are in doubt4 as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided whith the appliance. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrican. This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounded plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Fig.A. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in Fig.B, may be used to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle as shown in Fig.B, if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (Fig.A) is installed by a qualified electrican. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal srew.

WARNING:

In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
IN ALL CASES, MAKE SURE THE RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY GROUNDED.
POWER PLUG. EXTENSION CORDS
Use only three-wire extensions cords that have three-pong grounding-type plugs and three-pole receptacle that accepts the appliance's plug. Replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

SERVICING OF DOUBLEINSULATED APPLIANCES
In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is provided on a doubleinsulated appliance, nor should a means for grounding be added to the appliance. Servicing a doubleinsulated appliance requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be done only by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a doubleinsulated appliance must be identical to the parts they replace.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Manual mode Dry suction The surface filter is never to be removed during suction. A paper filter bag or a membrane filter can also be used when sucking up fine dust.
Fitting the membrane filter Unlock and remove the suction head Pull the membrane filter over the container edge Replace the suction head and lock it in place Note: The paper filter bag is not required

Fitting the brush strip

Power Filter Clean / Filter dedusting The surface filter is cleaned automatically by interrupting the air flow (approx. 10-15 s.)
Actuate the remote control for Power Filter Clean at the handle at regular intervals, during dry suctioning as well as upon finishing work. Fitting the paper filter bag Unlock and remove the suction head Insert the paper filter bag Replace the suction head and lock it in place Insert power plug Switch on the machine and start using it.
Manual mode Wet suction The surface filter is never to be removed during suction. The paper filter bag and membrane filter must be removed whenever wet dirt is sucked up. The machine is not switched off when the container is full with nonconductive liquids (e.g. drilling emulsion, oils und greases The filling level must be checked constantly and the container must be emptied in good time.

Automatic operation (only NT 561/361 Eco TE)
Remove the paper filter bag Remove the membrane filter Insert power plug Switch on the machine and start using it Note: Power Filter Clean is activated automatically (hammering noise) when sucking up water from a full container. Clean and dry the surface filter, electrodes, and container when finished wet-vacuuming.
Plug in the electric tool mains plug on the suction machine.(3) Switch on the machine (1) The standby lamp is lit (2) Note: The vacuum cleaner is automatically switched on and off with the electric tool. The vacuum cleaner has a starting delay of approx. 0,5 s and an after running time of max. 15 s. Electric tools of 100-2200 W can be connected.
Match the junction box to the electric tool connector.
Fitting rubber lips Note: The structured side of the rubber lips must show outwards.
Remove the pipe bend from the suction hose Fit the junction box to the suction hose
Cleaning/changing the surface filter Clean electrodes
Suction force diminishes Remove clogging material from the suction nozzle, suction pipe, Power Filter Clean, suction hose, or surface filter. Activate the remote control for Power Filter Clean on the handle. Change the paper filter bag. Lock the filter cover in place. Cleaning/changing the surface filter. Dust ejects when sucking Check the surface filter is positioned correctly. Change the surface filter. Automatic switch-off (wet suction) is defective Clean electrodes. Constantly check the filling level for an electrical non-conductive liquid. Power Filter Clean switches regularly Loosen suction nozzle or end of hose when caught on vacuumed object. End continuous suction from the liquid container. Remove clogging material from the suction nozzle, suction pipe, Power Filter Clean, suction hose, or surface filter. Change the surface filter.
Connect the junction box to the electric tool
Open the filter cover (1) and take out the surface filter (2). Cleaning / changing the surface filter Close the filter cover, it must lock audibly Changing the output air filter
Unlock and remove the suction head Clean electrodes Replace the suction head and lock it in place
FAULT INSTRUCTIONS CARE AND MAINTENANCE The suction turbine does not run Check the cable, plug, fuse and socket. Switch on the machine. The suction turbine switches off Empty the container. Open the filter cover (1) and exchange the exhaust air filter (2).
