Description of the main parts
RONDA 200 is designed as a handy and compact industrial vacuum cleaner for collecting fine dust and dust
hazardous to health. Here follows a description of the main parts and how the work and operate.
Motortop with suction motor and HEPA-filter
The motortop is equipped with an integrated handle and switches for the
suction motor and the electrical power take-out with automatic start-/stop.
The power full suction motor of the RONDA 200 is placed in the motortop.
It is possible to connect electrical hand
held tools directly to the RONDA 200.
The power cable has a separate neutral
wire.
The HEPA-filter is an integrated part of the motortop. The HEPA-filter is
classified as a Dust-class ”H”-filter.
The filter holds back the finest and smallest dust particles that are not held
back by the tube-filter. The HEPA-filter holds back particles of the size of
only 0,3 µm (0,0003 mm). The filter surface it self is 1,1 m2 large and is
protected by a metal framework.
Motortop with manometer and pressure relief valve
The adaptor ring is an integrated part of the motortop. A
manometer (1) and a pressure relief valve (2) are mounted on the
adaptor ring.
The manometer measures the suction power and has a green and
red section. Is the pointer in the red section during operation, it
indicates that the filter is being blocked and the air velocity to small.
The filter can be cleaned during operation by using the pressure
relief valve. 1

Dust container with tube-filter
The large tube-filter in RONDA 200 is mounted directly in the dust
container. The tube-filter is tested with quartz-dust-particles, of which
more than half is less than 5 µm. (5 µm is the same as 0,005 mm.) The
filter holds back 99,97% of all the particles, which corresponds to an
emission of 0,06 mg/m3 in the cleaned air.
The filter surface is 8000 cm2 large and covered by a Teflon-coating.
The dust particles are held back by the Teflon-coating, which makes it
difficult for the particles to block the filter.
The tube filter has a self-cleaning effect during operation.
The filter consists of a number of tubes mounted on springs. During
operation the tubes vibrate and part of the dust sucked on to the tube-
surface falls down in the dust container.
Dust container and filter bag
The dust container is equipped with five pivotally wheels.
The dust container contains the filter bag and the plastic sack for the
collection of dust hazardous to health.
Dust can also be collected directly in the dust container. The classic P10
filter bag can be used if plain dust (not hazardous to health) is being
collected.
NOTE: The filter bag cannot be completely filled when collecting very
fine dust.
When collecting dust hazardous to health, the P10 filter bag together
with the protecting plastic sack must be used.

Mode of operation
When the suction motor is turned on, the air is drawn through the appliance
collecting dust near the floor nozzle.
Due to the high air velocity the dust particles are transported to the dust
container. The large particles are quickly gathered in the bottom of the dust
container or in the filter bag.
.
The air-flow carrying the finer particles continues towards the tube filter. The
tube filter separates the majority of the particles.
The tube filter holds back all the particles that are larger than 0,005 mm as
well as most of the particles less than 0,005 mm
The finest particles are held back bye the HEPA-filter under the motortop. The
HEPA-filter holds back 99,999% of all particles larger than 0,0003 mm.
The cleaned air continues through the suction motor and is led through the
exhaust filters and the noise reduction foam in the motortop.
Finally the air leaves the appliance under the yellow motortop.
IMPORTANT! Do not cover the motortop during operation. If the air-
flow is blocked the motortop may be over-heated.

NOTE:
The 10 A fuse-limit will be exceeded if tools with power
consumption of more than 1000 W is connected. Check the
fuse of your main power supply before connecting the tool.
Collecting dry dust
When the appliance is correctly assembled it can be started on
the red switch on the motortop.
During operation RONDA 200 can be driven around on the five
pivotally wheels.
The floor nozzle is suitable for collecting dust from larger
horizontal areas. The nozzle is equipped with adjustable wheels
securing an optimal positioning of the nozzle on the floor.
Eventually the brushes will be
torn, reducing the efficiency of
the nozzle. Adjust the wheel-
height using the knob to
secure, that the brushes only
just touches the floor.
Power take-out and automatic start/stop
RONDA 200 is equipped with a power take-out socket with automatic start/stop. Connecting electrical hand-held
tools to the power take-out on the motortop, makes it possible to turn the RONDA 200 on and off with the on/off-
switch on the hand-held tool.
The power take-out is programmed to a delayed stop. After the
hand-held tool has been turned of, the RONDA 200 will
continue for a few seconds to ensure, that dust and particles in
the hose and pipe are led to the dust container.
The hand-held electrical tool is connected directly to the outlet
on the backside of the motortop.
It is possible to connect hand-held tool with a maximum power
consumption of 1800 W leading to a total current consumption
of app. 13 A.

The automatic start-/stop function is activated on the black switch
on the motortop. Turn on the red switch on the motortop. When the
automatic start-/stop function is activated, the appliance does not
start, when the red switch is turned on. The appliance will start,
when the connected hand-held tool is started.
RONDA 200 will continue to operate for a few seconds after the
tool has been turned of in order so collect dust from the pipe and
hose.
Manometer and filter cleaning during operation
The manometer placed on the adaptor ring measures the air pressure
inside the appliance during operation.
If the tube filter is blocked by fine particles, the air pressure inside the
appliance will drop.
The manometer will indicate the drop in air pressure. By reaching the red
section the pointer indicates that the air velocity in the hose is to low and
that the tube filter needs to be cleaned.
The tube filter is cleaned during operation:
•Release the hose from the pipe
•Press the hose against the pressure relief valve.
Vacuum is now being build up inside the machine and in the hose. At the same
time the springs in the filter tubes will be pressed together.
•Let the hose remain on the pressure relief valve
•Pull out the pressure relief valve.
The springs in the filter tubes will now expand and release the
blocking dust particles.
10

NOTICE:
The manometer on the RONDA 200 is calibrated for correct indication, when
the appliance is used with its standard accessories (40 mm). Using hoses or
pipes of a smaller dimension the manometer will indicate too high a value. To be
safe having the sufficient air velocity in pipe and hose, it is recommended to
clean the filter and if necessary to empty the appliance, if the pointer of the
manometer enters the red section.
At the same time fresh air floats the opposite way
through the tube filter in order to equalize the
pressure in the dust container and in the hose.
In this way the tube filter is cleaned in an
effective way. The effect of the cleaning process
can be seen on the manometer.
If necessary repeat the filter cleaning process
until the pointer of the manometer re-enters the
green section.
It is advisable to leave the appliance for a few minutes before emptying it – especially if the appliance is used
without filter bag. This allows the dust to settle and the risk of polluting the environment during the emptying
process is reduced.
11

Emptying
RONDA 200 can collect dust directly in the dust container, in the classic P10 filter bag or in filter bag with
protective plastic sack (Used when collecting dust hazardous to health) It is advisable to leave the appliance for a
few minutes before emptying it – especially if the appliance is used without filter bag. This allows the dust to settle
and the risk of polluting the environment during the emptying process is reduced.
•Release the motortop by releasing the four clips securing the
motortop on the dust container.
•Place the motortop on a dry and clean surface.
•Pull out the tube filter using the two handles.

Replacing filters
In general
When replacing the filters, the necessary precautions to protect the environment and the respiratory passages of
the operator must be taken. The nature and scope of these precautions must be based upon the type of dust
sitting on the surfaces of the tilters. Before checking or replacing the filters, clean the tube filter and empty the
appliance as described earlier.
Control and replacing the tube filter (Itemno. 84.67.1111)
The tube filter is manufactured from very robust filter material and has a very long life span. Inevitable the surface
of the filter will be mechanically worn by all the small particles. Consequently the filter must be checked for holes
and fissures on a regular basis. Even small holes in the tube filter will allow particles to penetrate the filter and
then be held back in the HEPA-filter. The HEPA-filter is designed for very small particles and will rapidly be
blocked if the tube filter is damaged.
•Release the motortop by releasing the four clips
securing the motortop to the dust container.
•Place the motortop on a dry and clean surface.
•Inspect the upper surface of the tube filter. Can
dust particles be visually identified on the top
surface, this indicates that the tube filter is
damaged or worn.
A damaged or worn tube filter must be replaced.
A replacement of the tube filter should include a replacement of the HEPA-filter as well. Please see the next
section.
15

Replacing the HEPA-filter
•Dismount the motortop by releasing the
four container clips.
•Place the motortop on a horizontal, dry
and clean surface and upside down.
•Loosen the screw holding the HEPA-filter.
•Remove the HEPA-filter.
•When mounting a new HEPA-filter make
sure, that the surface of contact between
the HEPA-filter and the motortop is clean.
•Tighten the screw so the HEPA-filter is
secured under the motortop.
The bottom of the HEPA-filter is made of a thin metal material, so be sure not to tighten the screw too much.
Disposal of used filters
When disposing used filters make sure that they are disposed according to the guidelines given by local and
national environmental authorities.
16

Trouble shooting
If the appliance does not collect material in a satisfactory way:
•The suction hose, tube or nozzle may be blocked.
Stop the appliance and remove the blocking.
•The dust container or the filter bag may be full.
Stop the appliance and empty the dust container and filter bag (Refer to the section: “Emptying”).
•There may be a leak between the motortop and the dust container.
Start the appliance and block the suction hose. Normally a leak can be located by its characteristic sound.
Dismount the motortop and inspect the area where the leak was located. Make sure that the surfaces of
contact are clean and remount the motortop. Repeat the operation if necessary.
•The filter bag may be blocked.
The filter bag cannot be completely filled if very fine dust is collected.
Replace the filter bag.
•The tube filter may be blocked.
Clean the tube filter (Refer to the section ”Manometer and filter cleaning during operation”).
•The HEPA-filter may be blocked.
Replace the HEPA-filter. (Refer to the section “Replacing HEPA-filter”).
