Instructions For Use, Emptying after wet pick-up

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

NOTE!

The Sack Filter and the Float System should always be mounted in the machine during both WET AND DRY operations.

Please also notice that the ﬁll factor at the container may vary when using a sack ﬁlter during wet pick-up operations.

NOTE! Before wet pick-up

The machine is equipped with a ﬂ oat system that shuts off the airﬂ ow through the machine when the maximum liquid level is reached. Never pick up liquid without the ﬂoat body in place. To control: Loosen the two latches at each side of the motor top

.Then remove the motor top. Check that the ﬂ oat basket and ﬂ oat valve are mounted at the motor top. Remounting the motor top: Put back the motor top to the container. Make sure that the switch/ switches is located in direction towards the suction inlet. Then tigh- ten both latches so that the motor top is properly secured. Always use a chemical defoamer when picking up water containing foaming detergents. Use a defoamer recommended by the

detergent manufacturer.

1 Starting and operating the machine

Check that the electrical switch is switched off (in position 0). Then connect the suction hose into the suction inlet at the machine by pushing the hose forward until it is sliding in place at the inlet (to re- lease the hose from machine just twist and pull out the hose). Then connect the two tubes with the hose handle, twist the tubes in order to ensure that they are properly ﬁ tted. Attach suitable nozzle to the tube. Choose nozzle depending on what type of material that is to be picked-up. Connect the plug into a proper electrical outlet. Put the electrical switch into position 1 in order to start the motor. Some variants have two motors/fan units and two electrical switches - one switch for each motor.

WD 7 & WD 7 Duo Adjusting the handle

The handle can be adjusted to the suitable working heigth. Start by loosing the two locking screws at each side of the handle. Then ad- just the handle by moving it upwards or downwards until the proper angle is found. Tighten the both locking screws again to secure the handle

Wet pick up

The machine is equipped with a ﬂ oat body that shuts of the airﬂ ow through the machine when the maximum liquid level is reached. You will then hear a noticeable change of the sound from the motor and notice that the suction power decreases. When this occurs, switch the machine of. Disconnect the machine from the socket.

See chapter 2 for emptying after wet pick-up.

2 Emptying after wet pick-up

Before emptying the container, unplug the vacuum cleaner. Always empty and clean the container and the ﬂoat system after picking-up liquids. Never pick up liquid without the ﬂoat system installed in the

machine. The Sack Filter and the Float System should always be mounted in the machine during both WET AND DRY operations. Please also notice that the ﬁll factor at the container may vary when using a sack ﬁlter during wet pick-up operations.

Emptying WD 3

2a) Release the latch by pulling the lower parts outwards so that the motor top is released. Lift up the motor top. Remove the sack ﬁ lter from the container.

2b) Disconnect the hose from the inlet by pulling the hose out- wards.

2c) Empty by tilting the container backwards and pour the liquids into a ﬂ oor drain or similar. Wipe the ﬂ oat valve and ﬂ oat basket with a damp cloth before the motor top is reinstalled to the contai- ner.

2d) Wipe the ﬂ oat valve and the ﬂ oat basket with a damp cloth.

2e) Put back the motor top to the container. Secure with the latches.

2f) Drain hose: Thease models have a draining hose that easy and comfortable drain the container from liquids. Detach the drain hose from the bracket by pulling hose backwards from the cleaner. Place the drain hose end near a ﬂ oor drain and then remove the plug at hose end. The natural pressure will then drain the liquids from the container.

2g) Emptying from the container: Pull the upper parts of the latches outwards and release the motor top. Remove the motor top. Then remove the sack ﬁ lter from the container.

The suction hose can be attached during emptying from the con- tainer. Grasp with one hand at the handle at the lower part of the container. To avoid movement of the trolley - place one foot at the basepart of the trolley. Then tilt the container backwards and pour the liquids into a ﬂ oor drain or similar.

2h) Wipe the ﬂ oat valve and the ﬂ oat basket with a damp cloth.

2i) Put back the motor top to the container. Make sure that the switch/switches is located in direction towards the suction inlet. Secure with the latches.

3 Emptying after dry pick-up

Remove the plug from the socket before emptying after dry pick-up. Release the latches by pulling them outwards so that the motor top is released. Lift up the motor top from container. Check the ﬁ lters and dustbag regularly.

Cartridge ﬁlter: To clean the cartridge ﬁ lter you can either shake, brush or wash it. Wait until it is dry before you reuse it. A motor pro- tection ﬁ lter is located in front of the motor inlet. Check this motor

ﬁlter after dry pick-up - replace to new ﬁ lter if ﬁ lter is clogged. Sackﬁlter:Grasp the sackﬁ lter and lift it up from cleaner. Shake

ﬁlter so that all dust is removed from the ﬁ lter.

Dustbag: Check the bag regularly to ensure the ﬁ ll factor. Never Replace dust bag if necessary. Remove the old bag. The new bag is ﬁ tted by passing the carboard piece with the rubber membrane through the

vacuum inlet. Make sure that the rubber membrane is passing past the heightening at the vacuum inlet.

Motor ﬁlter: A ﬁ lter is located in front of the motor inlet at the motor top. Check this motor ﬁ lter when emptying after dry cleaning - replace to new ﬁ lter if ﬁ lter is clogged.

After emptying: Put back the motor top to the container. Make sure that the switch/switches is located in direction towards the suction inlet. Secure with the latches. Never pick up dry material without ﬁ lter and dustbag ﬁ tted in the machine. The suction ef-

ﬁciency of the vacuum cleaner depends on the size and quality of the ﬁ lter and dust bag. Therefore - use only Original ﬁ lter and dust bags.

4 Maintenance of the ﬂoat system

Remove the plug from the socket before performing maintenance. Always empty and clean the container and the ﬂ oat system after picking-up liquids.

4a) Release the latch by pulling them outwards so that the motor top is released. Lift up motor top from container. Turn the motor top to upside down position.

4b) Then loosen the ﬂ oat basket by turning the basket to the left. Remove the complete ﬂ oat system from motor top.

4c) A ﬁ lter is located in front of the motor inlet. Check this motor ﬁ lter - replace to new ﬁ lter if ﬁ lter is clogged.

4d) Wipe the ﬂ oat valve and ﬂ oat basket with a damp cloth before the motor top is reinstalled to the container. Then reinstall the ﬂ oat valve to the ﬂ oat basket. Make sure that the sealed surface of the

ﬂoat valve is installed upwards in direction towards the motor top. 4e) To mount the ﬂ oat basket - ﬁ t the arrow at the basket to the arrow at the motor top. Then secure the ﬂ oat basket by turning it to the right.

5 After use

Remove the plug from the socket when machine is not in use. Wind up the cord starting from the machine. The power cord can be wound up around the handle/hook located on the motor top. Some variants have special storage places for accessories.
