V8000WD MK-2
– flammable, explosive dust
(e.g. magnesium or alu-
minium dust, etc.)
CAUTION!
Follow the operating instruc-
tions and safety instructions for
appliances connected to the
appliance socket.
Before starting the
vacuum cleaner
Before starting the vacuum
cleaner, check that it is in
proper condition. Plugs and
couplings in power cords must
at least have splash protection.
Regularly check whether the
power cord is damaged or
shows signs of aging. Use the
vacuum cleaner only if the
power cord is intact (risk of
electrocution in case of dam-
age to the cord).
Never use the vacuum cleaner
if the filter element is damaged.
During use
Do not damage the power cord
(e.g. by crushing it or pulling
or squeezing it).
Disconnect the power cord by
pulling the plug only (do not pull
or tug the power cord).
CA UTION!
Before sucking in liquids,
remove the filter bag and check
the performance of the floater
(see section 7.2.3).
When sucking in liquids always
use a filter element or filter
screen (for part number see
section 9.5 "Accessories").
If foam appears, stop work
immediately and empty the
tank.
Maintenance and repair
CAUTION!
Always pull out the mains
plug before cleaning and
servicing the vacuum.
Only perform maintenance
work described in the oper ating
instructions.
CAUTION!
Use original accessories
and parts only. The use of other
parts can adversely affect
safety.
CAUTION!
Do not make technical modifi-
cations to the vacuum cleaner.
They could endanger your
safety.
For further maintenance or
repair work, and / or the re-
placement of a faulty power
cord, contact Abatement
Technologies' Technical
Service.
Electrical connections
Check the rated voltage of the
vacuum cleaner prior to con-
necting it to the mains supply
system. Ensure that the voltage
shown on the rating plate
corresponds to the voltage of
the local mains power supply.
If you are using an extension
cord, use only those specified
by the manufacturer, or higher
quality ones (see section 9.4
"Technical data").
It is recommended that the
vacuum cleaner is connected
via a residual current circuit
breaker. This device stops the
supply of electricity if the
leakage current to ground
ceeds 30 mA for 30 ms or it has
a ground tester circuit.
When using an extension cord,
chec k the minimum cross
sections of the cable:
Cord length Cross section
up to 60'
15 gauge
60' to 150'
10 gauge
Arrange the electr
ical parts
(soc kets, plugs and couplings)
and lay the extension cord
down so that protection class
is maintained.
CAUTION!
Never spray water on to the
upper section of the vacuum
cleaner : danger for persons,
risk of short-circuiting.
Observe the latest edition of the
IEC regulations.
