Note:

 The textured side of the rubber lips must be facing

outwards.

Inserting the wet filter (wet vacuuming) (see
figures E1–E2)

To make disposal easier when vacuuming water-solid mix-
tures, the vacuum cleaner has a wet filter 

(20)

 that separ-

ates the liquid from the solids.
– Open the catches 

(8)

 and remove the top part of the va-

cuum cleaner 

(7)

.

– Turn the filter holder 

(29)

 as far as possible in the direc-

tion of rotation 

 and take the filter holder, together with

the main filter 

(19)

, out of the top part of the vacuum

cleaner 

(7)

.

– Place the wet filter 

(20)

 over the filter basket 

(30)

.

– Put the top part of the vacuum cleaner 

(7)

 on and close

the catches 

(8)

.

Operation

u

Pull the plug out of the socket before cleaning or per-
forming maintenance on the vacuum cleaner, making
tool adjustments, changing accessories or putting
away the vacuum cleaner.

 This safety measure prevents

the vacuum cleaner from being started accidentally.

Start-up

u

Pay attention to the mains voltage.

 The voltage of the

power source must correspond with the data on the type
plate of the vacuum cleaner.

u

Make sure you inform yourself about the applicable
regulations/laws on how to handle harmful types of
dust in your country.

u

Products that are only sold in AUS and NZ:

 Use a resid-

ual current device (RCD) with a nominal residual current
of 30 mA or less.

The vacuum cleaner must categorically not be used in poten-
tially explosive areas.
To ensure optimum suction power, you must always fully un-
wind the vacuum hose 

(16)

 from the top part of the vacuum

cleaner 

(7)

.

Dry vacuuming

Note:

 When dry vacuuming, ensure that the main filter 

(19)

is inserted into the vacuum cleaner.

Vacuuming up dust deposits (GAS 15)

– To 

switch on

 the vacuum cleaner, set the

on/off switch 

(4)

 to the "on" symbol.

– To 

switch off

 the vacuum cleaner, set the

on/off switch 

(4)

 to the "off" symbol.

Vacuuming up dust deposits (GAS 15 PS)

– To 

switch on

 the vacuum cleaner, set the

mode selector switch 

(4)

 to the "vacuuming"

symbol.

– To switch off the vacuum cleaner, set the

mode selector switch 

(4)

 to the "switch off"

symbol.

Extracting dust that accumulates from working power
tools (GAS 15 PS) (see figure F)

u

There must be a sufficient air exchange rate (L) in the
room when the exhaust air comes back into the room.
Be aware of the corresponding national regulations.

The vacuum cleaner has an electric socket with a protective
earth contact 

(3)

 that can be used to connect an external

power tool. Observe the maximum permitted load of the
connected power tool.
– Fit the dust extraction adapter 

(14)

 (see "Fitting the Dust

Extraction Adapter (GAS 15 PS)", page 18).

– Insert the dust extraction adapter 

(14)

 into the dust ex-

traction outlet of the power tool.

Note:

 When working with power tools that have a low air

feed into the vacuum hose (e.g. jigsaws, sanders, etc.), the
false air intake 

(31)

 of the dust extraction adapter 

(14)

 must

be opened. Only then can the semi-automatic filter cleaning
(SFC) work without any problems.
To do this, turn the ring above the false air intake 

(31)

 until

the opening is at its maximum size.

– To 

activate the automatic start/stop

function of the vacuum cleaner, set the
mode selector switch 

(4)

 to the "auto-

matic start/stop" symbol.

– To 

put the vacuum cleaner into operation

, switch on

the power tool that is plugged into the electric socket

(3)

. The vacuum cleaner will start automatically.

– To 

stop

dust extraction

, switch the power tool off.

The automatic start/stop run-on function will run for up
to six seconds longer in order to extract the remaining
dust from the vacuum hose.

– To 

switch off

 the vacuum cleaner, set the

mode selector switch 

(4)

 to the "switch

off" symbol.

Wet vacuuming

u

Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum combustible
or explosive liquids, such as petrol, oil, alcohol or
solvents. Do not vacuum hot or burning dust. Do not
operate the vacuum cleaner in areas subject to explo-
sion hazards.

 Dust, vapours and liquids can ignite or ex-

plode.

u

The vacuum cleaner must not be used as a water
pump.

 The vacuum cleaner is designed for vacuuming air

and vacuuming water mixtures.

Note:

 When wet vacuuming, ensure that the main filter 

(19)

is removed from the vacuum cleaner.

Steps to Take before Wet Vacuuming

– Open the catches 

(8)

 and remove the top part of the va-

cuum cleaner 

(7)

.
