User manual NILFISK GM 80 CR

[. . . ] This Nilfisk machine is safe to use with fine powders or hazardous materials, as long as certain precautions are taken. Proper care of this cleaner is essential to the maintenance of its ultrafine filtering capabilities. BEFORE USE: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THIS CLEANER UNTIL YOU HAVE INSTALLED ITS VARIOUS COMPONENTS ACCORDING TO THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS: WARRANTY The Nilfisk companies warrant that Nilfisk equipment will be free of defects in workmanship or material for a period of two years from the date of delivery. [. . . ] The GM 80CR kit includes a conductive crevice nozzle and conductive 3 inch round brush, which can be attached to either the wands or to the curved steel tube at the end of the conductive plastic hose. A tool caddy (#01720600) is also included to provide easy onboard storage of accessories. EMPTYING: IF THIS VACUUM CLEANER IS USED TO COLLECT HAZARDOUS MATERIAL, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPEN OR EMPTY ITS CONTENTS WITHOUT PERSONAL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AND RESPIRATORY PROTECTION. Photo 4 To empty the container and its contents, first turn off the motor. Allow the cleaner to sit undisturbed for at least thirty (30) seconds. Then twist and release the container clips. Once the seal is broken, turn on the motor again. This will prevent ultrafine particles which are still suspended in the air inside the container from escaping into the work place. Remove the polyliner and paper bag within it (photo 4). Then seal off the polyliner with the paper bag inside and install a new polyliner and paper bag according to step 2, Machine Setup. 4 DISPOSAL: Depending on local regulations, and the composition of the material you have collected, there can be a requirement for special handling and labeling of the filled and sealed plastic bags. Consult your local Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) official for details. MAINTENANCE Routine Maintenance: To ensure maximum performance of your Nilfisk vacuum cleaner, be sure to check your main filter regularly, possibly each time you change the paper bag. Your filter may need to be shaken to remove caked dust from time to time. Filter Replacement: To ensure that your Nilfisk vacuum cleaner delivers the years of trouble-free operation for which it was designed, it is necessary to check and replace filters regularly. Photo 5 1. Main Filter: The large napped cotton bag which is semipermanently mounted inside the container (photo 5) will not require frequent replacement. The main filter must be replaced when the cleaner no longer develops powerful suction, yet bags are not full and other filter components are not clogged. Extend main filter service life by frequent changes of disposable polyliners and paper bags. Photo 6 2. [. . . ] Check to see if there is any blockage or restriction in hose. Next, check the condition of the main filter and microfilter (refer to photos) and determine whether there is an excessive loading of debris.
