a vacuum cleaner, including the filter compartment
and spark arrester. Check the filter for damage or sat-
uration. Every 12 months, have a qualified technician
check the blower fan and housing for encrusted parti-
cles and clean if necessary. Check the sealing materi-
al of the extraction fan and replace if necessary.

indicator will flash if the cleaning function does not
reduce the pressure drop below the set point after two
cleaning pulses. This could be due to a saturated filter,
lack of compressed air, low air pressure or cleaning
equipment malfunction. If the filter is saturated, replace
the filter.
