1. On / Off button

2. Vacuum Gauge / Manometer (“H” class machine only)

7 — Starting and stopping

7.1 — Caution

Attention!!

Unauthorized personnel are forbidden to use the vacuum.

7.2 — Starting / Stopping

Check that the machine has been effectively connected to the electricity main. In particular, check that the main voltage and frequency values correspond to those indicated on the data plate. (see fig. 1)

Fit the accessories to the suction inlet. Use the stainless steel clamp to fix the hose to the inlet.

Place the vacuum near the place of use, then lock the wheels by pressing levers downwards.

The machine is switched ON or OFF by pressing the grey button on the upper part of the motor.

8 — Using the vacuum (fig. 7)

8.1 — Correct use of the vacuum

Before using the machine, connect the suction pipe to the inlet as indicated in paragraph 7.2.

Keep long suction pipes as straight as possible.

Do not allow them to bend or twist as this will cause excessive wear and clogging.

When the vacuum is powered, suction is created at the pipe inlet and this sucks in the waste material.

This waste material passes through the pipe and accessories through the inlet “4” until it reaches container “6”.

A Org. Nilfisk dustbag can be used in the standard machine.

To release the container, unfasten the stainless steel clamp and lift off the upper part with the motor/filter section.

Fix the dust bag as follows:

Pierce the dust bag´s perforation and place it in the lower container.

Pull the blue dust bag plastic plate over the suction inlet with both hands.

Unfold the dust bag carefully. Replace the top container and lock the stainless steel clamp.

Note

The suction efficiency depends on the size and quality of the dust bag. Use original Nilfisk bags only. If non- Nilfisk dust bags are used, and airflow restricted,
