5.1.2 Picking up liquids
Before liquids are picked up,
always remove the filter bag/
waste bag and check that the
water level limit works properly.

the filter element“.)
The use of a separate filter el-
ement or filter screen is recom-
mended.
If foam appears, stop work im-
mediately and empty the tank.
To reduce the amount of foam,
use foam killer Foam-Stop (see
section 9.5 „Accessories“ for or-
der number).
