Oki BTX-208 - Manual (Page 2)

For Your Safety
For safe and successful operation of the unit, read these instructions completely. If the instructions are not observed,
the manufacturer can assume no responsibility. Retain this manual for future reference.
Always disconnect the power supply before servicing the unit.
Do not operate the Unit without filter inserts. Contaminants in the extracted air will damage the blower. Use only
original equipment filters.
The BVX-208 is designed for the removal of solder fumes. Use filter unit only for this purpose. Consult your “safety
department” when using the unit on flammable gases. This unit is not explosion safe and can only be used for the
extraction of vapors, which have concentration levels well below the lower explosive limits.
This system is equipped with automatic reset overload protection, which may cause the unit to restart automatically.
While under warranty, the unit may be repaired only by an authorized Metcal Service Representative.

open air by-pass valve on air inlet cover until “fluttering” sound
disappears. Do not open too much as this will reduce the airflow
performance. The “fluttering” does not cause any damage to the system.
