Purpose and intended use
The vacuum cleaners described in this operating
manual are suitable for
- commercial use, e.g. in hotels, schools, hospitals,
factories, shops, offices and rental businesses.
- for separation of dust with an exposure limit of
greater than 0,1 mg/m 3 , (dust class M).
The following materials should not be picked up by
the vacuum cleaner:
- hot materials (burning cigarettes, hot ash, etc.)
- flammable, explosive, aggressive liquids (e.g.
petrol, solvents, acids, alkalis, etc.)
- flammable, explosive dust (e.g. magnesium or
aluminium dust, etc.)
When dust removers are used, the rate at which air
is exchanged in the room must be adequate if the
exhaust air from the vacuum cleaner is blown into
the room (please observe regulations valid in your
country).
Before starting work, the operating staff must be
informed on
- use of the vacuum cleaner
- risks associated with the material to be picked up
- safe disposal of the picked up material.
This cleaner is suitable to pick up dry, nonflammable
dust, liquids, sawdust and hazardous dusts with
maximum room concentration values ≥ 0.1 mg/m
(dust class M).
Depending on how hazardous the dust is, the
cleaner must be fitted with appropriate filters. See
table in section "Picking up dry substances".
