ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Most HSS dust extracotrs plug into a standard 240v 13Amp
power socket. However, 110v models (with a round yellow
plug) must be provided with a suitable 110v generated
supply, or powered from the mains via a suitable 110v
transformer (minimum 2kVA tool rating).

The operating voltage shown on the rating plate must
correspond to the voltage of the mains power supply.
Ensure that the Dust Extractor is switched off and insert the
plug of the mains lead into a properly installed and fused
plug socket with an earthing contact.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. FFoorrdduusstteexxttrraaccttiioonnffrroommaa111100vvoollttpower tool connect
110 volt electric power tool to socket making sure the
wattage of the power tool does not exceed the maximum
wattage shown on the socket cover.
2. Turn the switch to position "I". The
vacuum cleaner motor starts.
3. Turn the switch to position "auto". The
vacuum cleaner motor starts when the
connected power tool/pneumatic tool is
switched on.
4. When the power tool is switched off, the
vacuum cleaner continues to run for a short
moment so that any dust in the suction
hose is conveyed to the filter bag.
The motor speed and the suction power
can be varied with the suction power
control. This allows precise adjustment of
the suction power for different cleaning
tasks.
