Shaking the primary filter

Figure 8-9
Depending on the vacuumed dust quantity and if the pointer
of the vacuum gauge switches from the green zone (3, Fig.
8) to the red zone (2, Fig. 8), turn the vacuum cleaner off and
shake the main filter with the knob (1, Fig. 9).
WARNING!
Stop the vacuum cleaner before shaking the filter.
Do not shake the filter while the vacuum cleaner is on,
as this could damage the filter itself.
Wait a few seconds before restarting the vacuum cleaner,
to allow the dust to settle. Replace the filter element if the
pointer still remains in the red zone (1, Fig. 8) even after the
filter has been shaken (consult the "Primary filter replacement"
paragraph).

Emergency stopping

Turn the main switch to "0" position.

Emptying the dust container

WARNING!
Before proceeding with these operations, turn off the
vacuum cleaner and remove the plug from the power
socket.
Before emptying the container it is advisable to shake the filter
(see "Shaking the main filter" paragraph).

Plastic bag

A plastic bag can be used to collect dust (see Fig. 10).
In this case, the vacuum cleaner must be equipped with
optional accessories [depressor (3) and grid (2), Fig. 10].

Liquids vacuuming

WARNING!
Make sure that the vacuum cleaner is equipped with
a liquid level sensor and is suitable for vacuuming
liquids.
■ The filter element will be wet after liquids have been
vacuumed.
A wet filter element can quickly become clogged if the
vacuum cleaner is then used to vacuum dry substances.
For this reason, make sure that the filter element is dry
or replace it with another one before using the vacuum
cleaner for dry materials.
