TURBINE UNIT
The turbine unit only requires minimal maintenance
 Ensure its filter element is kept clean at all times.
This is the filter underneath the main body. Disconnect the unit from the mains, turn on side and
remove foam material. This can be washed out if necessary and replace when dry. From time to time
this filter will need replacing (part no.L0058).
 The turbine bearings are sealed and lubricated for life. There is no maintenance or adjustment required.
 Clean the turbine and hose unit with a damp cloth after use.
 The hose is stored by locating into the clips around the main body
 The mains lead is stored by wrapping around the base of the unit and locating the plug in the space at
the back of the unit.
 The compartment on the top of the unit can be used for the storage of accessories.
