About the cyclone attachment
Using the cleaner with the cyclone attachment installed
reduces the amount of dust that enters the capsule,
which helps to prevent the suction force from weaken-
ing. In addition, cleaning after use is also simple.
CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is
switched o󰀨 and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool. If the
battery cartridge is left inserted, the cleaner may start
unexpectedly and result in injury.
CAUTION: Clean the mesh lter of the
cyclone attachment and the lters of the cleaner
unit when they become clogged. Continued use in
the clogged condition may result in heating or smoke.

14 ENGLISH
NOTICE: When the cyclone attachment is
attached, do not use the cleaner in the horizontal
or upward facing condition. Doing so may cause
the mesh lter to become clogged.
NOTICE: Always use the cleaner with the lters
installed, even when using the cyclone attach-
ment. Using the cleaner without the lters installed
may result in a motor malfunction.
NOTE: Check that the cyclone attachment, cleaner,
and straight pipe are locked properly before use.
NOTE: Empty the dust case of the cyclone attach-
ment and the capsule of the cleaner when dust has
accumulated. Continued use will result in weakened
suction force.
