ROTHENBERGER RODIA DRY CLEANER 1200 - Manual (Page 15)

ENGLISH 13
WARNING! An electric tool must be switched off when it is connected. The socket is always live
when the plug is inserted in a mains socket, irrespective of the switch position. In th
e “0“ switch
setting, the socket can be used for an extension line (e.g. for a light).
Connected load: Suction unit and appliance max. 16 A
The vibrating device should be activated (switch position AR) at the latest when the volume flow
display (2c) (warning light) lights up or when the suction power decreases.
The suction openings of electric tools are not standard. Consequently, an adapter (rubber
nozzle) is available that can be shortened to fit the given electric tool.
With electric tools that have a very small suction opening the volume flow display (2c) may re-
main permanently illuminated during operation because the volume flow is small. However, by-
pass motor cooling ensures that no problems can arise when operating continuously under
these conditions.
Such appliances should be operated in the “A“ switch setting and not “AR“.
3.3 Operating
Dry vacuum cleaning
For dry vacuuming operation, a dust bag (14) should be inserted. When operating with a dust
bag (14), the folded filter (12) clogs slower, the vacuuming performance is kept up longer and
the disposal of dust becomes easier. A paper filter bag must always be used in conjunction with
a filter cartridge.
Wet vacuum cleaning
Vacuum cleaning is performed without a paper filter bag. The filter cassettes are suitable for wet
cleaning. The builtin sensor turns off the motor when the container is full. Empty the container in
the manner described. The restart lockout remains effective if the appliance is not switched off.
The appliance is only operational again after it has been switched off and switched on again.
– Always lift the suction hose out of the liquid before emptying.
– Due to the high suction force and flow-promoting container shape, some water may flow out
of the hose when the appliance is switched off.
– Use a dry filter for subsequent dry vacuum cleaning.
Use a second (exchangeable) filter when frequently alternating between dry and wet vacuum
cleaning.
Filter cleaning
Appliances fitted with an electromagnetic cleaning system can shake off the dust that is adher-
ing to the filter cassette (2). This guarantees optimal use of the filter cassettes and lengthens
their working cycles.
The vibrating device should be activated (switch position AR) at the latest when the volume flow
display (2c) (warning light) lights up or when the suction power decreases.
Emptying the container
Turn off (2a), disconnect the plug (6), and open the lock-in closure (9). Remove the top section
(1) and hose from the container (7). Empty the container or remove the paper filter bag (14) from
the suction opening.
Paper filter bag (optional accessory)
Hold of the paper filter bag (14) by the flange and push vertically from above into the guide of
the suction opening (8) until the stop point is reached. Bags increase the dust-retaining capacity
and ensure hygienic disposal. Paper filter bags must only be used for dry vacuum cleaning.
4 Cleaning
Filter cassettes should be cleaned with a soft brush and, possibly, with water.
Dry the filter and container thoroughly so that dust cannot adhere to moist parts. To prevent dirt
accumulation and encrustation, dry dust must be removed before changing over to wet vacuum
cleaning.
Clean the container and accessories with water. Wipe the top section (1) with a moist cloth.
