# Wet vacuuming

- Do not use the dust extractor to vacuum combustible or explosive liquids, such as petrol, oil, alcohol or solvents. Do not vacuum hot, burning or explosive dust. Do not operate the dust extractor in areas subject to explosion hazards. Dust, vapours and liquids can ignite or explode.

- The dust extractor must not be used as a water pump. The dust extractor is designed for vacuuming air and vacuuming water mixtures.

- The dust extractor must not be used without a filter.

Semi-automatic filter cleaning must not be activated during wet extraction.

## Before Starting Wet Extraction

Open the catches (13) and remove the top part of the dust extractor (12).

Empty the container (3) and remove the fleece filter bag (20).

Clean the filter (38) and fit it back into the dust extractor.

Make sure that the float (37) is clean. If the float is blocked, the dust extractor cannot switch off automatically when the container is full.

Hold the top part of the dust extractor (12) open and close both catches (13) until you hear them click into place.

## During and after wet extraction

The dust extractor is equipped with a float (37). Extraction is stopped when the maximum filling level is reached. The container (3) should then be emptied.

If liquid escapes from the dust extractor because the container was not emptied in time, switch off the dust extractor immediately. Remove the top part of the dust extractor (12) and allow all parts to dry thoroughly.

After the work is complete, to prevent the formation of mould, remove the top part of the dust extractor (12) and the filter (38) and allow them both to dry thoroughly.
