Instructions for use

Before using the machine make sure that the frequency and voltage shown on the rating plate corresponds with the mains voltage.

Specifications and details are subject to change without prior notice.

On/off

Attaching the power cord 80P/90C

Place the appliance plug of the cord in the motor socket, only 80P. Pressing the button turns the motor on and off alternately.

1 Detaching the power cord 80P/90C

Do not roll the cord tightly around the motor as this will place a strain on the cable and considerably shorten its life.

2 Connection of power cords 82/83/625/626

The short cords from the junction box are connected to the motors. The long cord from the junction box is plugged into the wall socket.

The motors start and stop when the switches are operated.

Note

The motors must run simultaneously to ensure maximum suction power. The motors should always be switched on and off individually.

Power cord All Models

Avoid any damage which may be caused by running over, jamming, or pulling the power cord. When replacing the power cord make sure that an approved cord of the same type as the original is used.

Thermal cut-out protection (USA and Canada only - All Models)

The vacuum is provided with a thermal cut-out protection mechanism. This prevents the motor from overheating if a blockage should occur. If this occur start by removing the electrical cord from the power outlet. Then remove the cause of the blockage to allow free air passage. Wait at least 5-10 minuttes. Then put back the electrical cord to the power outlet. When the motor is cool, it will automatically start again.

3 Diffuser All Model

The diffuser is easily replaceable.

Detaching the handle

1 Turn the two screws with a coin until their slots are vertical.

2 Release the handle by a gentle downward pressure at its center. Press until both ends spring out from the motor recess. Lift off the exhaust grill and the diffuser. The sound absorbent material must remain on top of the motor.

3 Remove the diffuser and mount the replacement. Replace the grill.

Replacing the handle

Place the handle into position and lock it by turning the screws until their slots are horizontal.

Hose and tubes All model

4Hose connection

Insert the bayonet coupling in the suction inlet, and lock it in place by turning it clockwise.

Reverse this procedure to disconnect the hose.

5Plastic hose and plastic tube

1 Fitting hose to the curved tube. Slide the hose into the curved tube and adjust by turning until locking levers grip into position.

2 Removing hose from curved tube. You may wish to remove the hose from the curved tube so that you can easily remove a blockage.

Push one of the locking levers with a screwdriver, as illustrated. Tip the locking lever until it is released. Repeat on the other locking lever. The curved tube can now be separated from the hose.

6Suction power regulation on curved plastic tube

1 The suction power of the nozzle can be regulated by the slide valve on the curved tube. Suction is most powerful when the valve is pushed forward to close the inlet.

2 For cleaning of e.g. loose covers and curtains, the suction power can be reduced by sliding the valve backwards.

7Rubber or plastic hose with curved steel tube

If the hose or curved tube is blocked, the curved tube can be detached from the hose to remove the obstruction.

Dismantling

Hold the ring closest to the curved tube and pass it over the wand by simultaneously pulling and turning.

Assembling

The rubber coupling makes work easier and prolongs the life of the hose. (If the coupling becomes tight, it should be removed and sprinkled liberally inside with French Chalk or talcum powder).
