for the carrying handle of the L-Boxx. Danger of injury and
causing damage.
Operation
Starting Operation
 Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the pow-
er source must agree with the voltage specified on the
nameplate of the vacuum cleaner. Equipment marked
with 230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
 Please inform yourself about the valid regula-
tions/laws for your country concerning the handling of
materials that are hazardous to one’s health.
The vacuum cleaner is suitable for vacuuming and extracting
the following materials:
– Dusts with an exposition limit value > 1 mg/m
3
The vacuum cleaner may generally not be used in rooms
where the danger of an explosion exists.
