The device is a PARKSIDE Wet & Dry Vacuum Cleaner, model PNTS 1300 A1, designed for domestic use in various environments such as the house, work room, car, or garage. It is capable of both wet and dry vacuuming, and also features a blower function. The appliance is equipped with a robust plastic container for waste collection and castors for easy maneuverability.
Function Description:
The vacuum cleaner operates by drawing air and debris into its waste container. For wet vacuuming, a foam filter (15) is used, and the suction flow is automatically switched off by a float once the waste tank is full, preventing overflow. For dry vacuuming, a material filter (16) is placed over the foam filter (15). For fine dust, an additional paper filter bag (17) is recommended. The blower function is activated by connecting the vacuum hose (13) to the blower connection (11) on the motor head. The device is controlled by an on/off switch (3).
