[. . . ] In some situations when vacuuming liquid dirt, we recommend using the large multipurpose nozzle accessory together with the articulated brush for liquids (14-15) (for example, when vacuuming water loss from the washing machine). When it is not possible to vacuum with the brush, use the lance for corners (19) or work solely with the hand grip, according to requirements. (fig. 6). D R Y A N D L I Q U I D VA C U U M I N G You can use the machine to suck up dust or liquids. If the water becomes very dirty, replace it as described in the "how to empty and clean the collection tank". If you hear increasing motor speed, and the suction is blocked by the floater (7), it means that the level of sucked up liquids has reached its maximum and you must empty the collection tank. To do this: - turn off the appliance by pushing the red button (2) on the lid. - lift off the motor group (6) from the collection tank (9) by releasing the locking clamps (10). HOW TO EMPTY AND CLEAN THE C O L L E C T I O N TA N K · Turn off the appliance by pushing the red button on the lid and disconnect the appliance from the mains. Lift off the motor group from the collection tank by releasing the locking clamps (10). · Separate the stainless steel net filter (20) from the motor group by turning the filter lock cover (8) until it is released and rinse the filter under running water. · Empty the collection tank, remove the water filter accessory (21) from the tube connector support by taking out the holding bracket (21) from the two guides (fig. 7) and rinse all the group under running water. Note: water remaining in the tank does not damage the appliance, but it is always better to empty it before storing LECO-WATER BASIC. One of the biggest advantages of Leco-Water is the ability to store it clean, unlike vacuum cleaners with dust bag which are stored together with the dirt they have picked up. · If you want to keep on vacuuming, put the water filter (21) back making the reverse operation and restore the water level inside the collection tank. ADJUSTING THE AIR FLOW To reduce the suction strength, simply adjust the air flow by turning the knob located on the hand grip (12); with small clockwise or anticlockwise movements you can obtain the correct adjustment for the intended use. Reduction of the air flow is useful to vacuum carpets, mattress, couches, cushions and curtains.
