Machine-Related Safety Instructions; Emission Levels; Commissioning - Festool VAC SYS VP Manual De Instrucciones Original/Lista De Piezas De Repuesto

Equipment or machines operated by inexpe-
rienced personnel may pose a serious health
hazard.
- Maintain the device with care. Check whether
moving components function correctly and do
not seize, and whether any components are
broken or damaged so badly that the device
will not function correctly as a result. Have any
damaged components repaired before using
the device. Most accidents are caused by poorly
maintained equipment/machines.
- Never use equipment with a faulty switch. Ma-
chines that cannot be switched on or off are
dangerous and should be repaired.
- Have your machine repaired by qualifi ed spe-
cialist staff and always use original spare parts
to ensure that your machine operates reliably.
- Always use original Festool accessories.

Machine-related safety instructions

- Do not operate the machine unless the indicator
on the vacuum gauge is within the green sec-
tor. Check the vacuum prior to each machining
process.
- The vacuum pump should only be operated
when installed in the SYSTAINER. Do not re-
move any inserts from the SYSTAINER. Never
operate the vacuum pump separately from the
SYSTAINER.
- Do not expose parts of the body to vacuum
forces.
- Observe the maximum air humidity:
Temperature Rel. air humidity
Operation 20° C
40° C
Storage 20° C
40° C

Setup
Select an installation location for the vacuum
pump that corresponds with the following condi-
tions:
- Protected from bumps, falling objects or simi-
lar.
- Protected from moisture.
- Min. 50 cm above fl oor height to prevent chips
and dust from being drawn in through the ven-
tilation slits [1-4].
- Min. 5 cm from the wall to keep the ventilation
slits [1-4] free.
Vacuum connector
NOTE
Foreign objects and fl uids entering the vacuum
pump may cause damage.
Observe the following points before operating the
machine:
• If the extracted gas contains dust or other solid
foreign matter, make sure that a suitable fi lter
(5 µm or less) is connected upstream.
• Make sure that the coupling on the suction line
is compatible with the connection [1-5] at the
vacuum pump end.
• Make sure that the vacuum is generated via
a fl exible vacuum-sealed hose with insulated
plastic/steel coil or via a pipeline.
• When using a pipeline, make sure that the forces
generated are not transferred from the pipeline
to the vacuum pump.
• Make sure that the diameter of the suction line
is the same as the diameter of the vacuum con-
nection on the vacuum pump or larger along its
entire length.
Connecting the vacuum hose
• Before attaching the vacuum connector, remove
the protective cap [2-3] from the plug nipple and
turn to the side.
• Attach a vacuum hose [2-1] to the connector
[2-2].
• If a vacuum hose is not connected, push the
protective cap [2-3] onto the connector [2-2] to
protect against damage.
