FAQs
Is this machine suitable for sanding plaster?
Yes, it is highly effective for plaster dust; however, ensure you use the appropriate filter bag to protect the main filter.
Can I use this without a dust bag?
While it can be used without a bag, using a dust bag is highly recommended for dry applications to prolong the filter life and make disposal cleaner.
What does L-class mean?
L-class signifies that the extractor is approved for dust with an Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL) of greater than 1 mg/m³.
How do I switch between wet and dry modes?
For dry use, ensure a dry filter is fitted. For wet use, remove the dry filter to prevent damage and ensure the tank is clean.
Does it have a power tool socket?
Yes, the 1230 L PC features an integrated power take-off socket for tool-activated extraction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the unit, ensure the appropriate filter is installed for your intended task—use a dry filter for dust and replace or remove it when dealing with high-volume liquid pickup. Connect the included hose to the inlet port, and attach the secondary power tool cord to the integrated socket on the front of the unit for synchronized operation. For care, regularly activate the 'Push & Clean' system to knock dust off the filter pleats. After wet use, always empty the tank and allow the filter to dry completely to prevent mold growth or suction loss. Periodically check the hose for kinks or blockages to maintain peak performance.
