coating can be applied before the device is removed from
the hazardous area.

During transport or maintenance of the device, the intake
opening must be sealed using the plug.

On a device of category M, the outside of the equipment
must be decontaminated using a vacuum cleaner and
wiped down or covered in a sealing agent before it is
removed from the hazardous area. Once removed from the
hazardous area, all items of the device are deemed to be

Cleaning
NOTE
Do not use cleaning agents containing silicone for cleaning.

No external assistance is required for the execution of
basic maintenance and cleaning.

Filter cleaning system (Figure L)
The device is equipped with a semi-automatic filter cleaning
system. It cleans the filter and restores the suction power.

Switch on the device (1) to use the filter cleaning system.

Insert the nozzle pipe in the opening of the device (2) to
close it for air flow and to generate the maximum vacuum
in the dust container.
Press the filter cleaning button three times to clean the filter.
Manual filter cleaning (Figure M)
If the filter is soiled, rinse it in cold water (1) and allow it to dry
(2). Install the filter again once it has dried.
Changing the filter (Figure N)
After an extended period of use, the filter must be replaced by
a new one. If the filter is heavily soiled or clogged, manually
cleaning must be carried out as semi-automatic filter cleaning
will not be sufficient to clean the filter.

To remove the filter, loosen the screw (1) and remove the
parts (2).
Install the filter in the reverse order of removal. Make sure that
the screws are not overtightened.
Repairs
Have repairs carried out by an authorised customer service
centre only.
