USING THE MACHINE: Starting and stopping: Press the gray button on the upper front portion of the vacuum (photo 5). Photo 5 Correct use of the machine: This machine is not a wet/dry vacuum. Do not use this vacuum to pick up liquids, or any wet materials. 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. 4 Photo 6 DISPOSAL: 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 6). Then seal off the polyliner with the paper bag inside and install a new polyliner and paper bag according to step 2, Machine Setup. 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 you 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. 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. Main Filter: The large napped cotton bag which is semipermanently mounted inside the container 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 7). Microfilter: This small felt polyester sock, which fits over the motor bottom will require periodic inspection. Change the microfilter as soon as any discoloration is easily noticeable. Do not shake this microfilter since this can cause liberation of potentially harmful microscopic dust into the air.
