Observe the following when extracting
dust generated by operating electric power
tools:
If the exhaust air is discharged back into the
room, the air renewal rate L within the
room must be sufficient. The volume of air
discharged back into the room must not ex-
ceed 50% of the fresh air volume flow (room
volume V
R
x air renewal rate L
W
). Observe all
the relevant regional regulations.
Remember: A moist main filter clogs more
quickly when extracting dry materials.
Therefore, dry the main filter before extract-
ing dust or replace the damp filter with a dry
one.

Extracting fluids
Before extracting fluids, remove the filter
bag (see Chapter 7.8). We recommend using
a special wet filter.

Service and maintenance
Damaged safety devices and components
must be repaired or replaced in a recognised
specialist workshop, unless otherwise indi-
cated in the operating manual.
Observe the following instructions:
– A dust test must be performed at least
once a year by the manufacturer or an in-
structed person. This test may include
checks to determine whether the filter is
damaged, the machine is sealed properly
and the monitoring features are function-
ing correctly.
– During maintenance and repair work, all
components that cannot be cleaned satis-
factorily must be replaced. The old compo-
nents must be sealed in impermeable
plastic bags prior to disposal in compliance
with applicable regulations for this type of
waste.
– Provided maintenance personnel or other
persons in the vicinity are not endangered,
the user must dismantle and clean the ma-
chine prior to performing maintenance
work. Appropriate precautionary measures
include decontaminating the machine prior
to disassembly, making provisions for lo-
cally filtered forced ventilation at the loca-
tion of machine disassembly, cleaning the
maintenance area and appropriate person-
al protective equipment.
