Product Information

Full details

Its key benefit is the Automatic Filter Cleaning (AFC) technology, which prevents filter clogging and maintains efficiency, complemented by a hose-less container design for easier emptying and a space-saving integrated hose storage.

Can I use this extractor for liquids?

Troubleshooting

Suction power is significantly reduced.

Check if the dust container is full and needs emptying. Inspect the main filter for excessive dust buildup and clean it manually if needed. Ensure there are no blockages in the hose or attached accessories.

The extractor will not turn on.

Verify that the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check the power switch on the unit.

AFC system seems ineffective.

Ensure the AFC system is activated according to the manual. Manual cleaning of the filter may be required if the system is overwhelmed by very fine or sticky dust.

Water leaks during wet extraction.

Confirm the unit is set to wet extraction mode. Ensure the dust container is empty and properly sealed. Check the float mechanism for obstructions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Maintains consistent strong suction power due to AFC technology.
  • Efficient dust and debris collection for various materials.
  • Quick and easy container emptying with hose-less design.
  • User-friendly features like integrated hose storage and anti-tipping motor head.
  • Suitable for both wet and dry applications.

Cons

  • AFC technology may require periodic manual cleaning for optimal performance.
  • Can be bulky for very confined spaces.
  • Requires a power source, limiting use in areas without electricity.
  • Initial setup and component attachment might take a few minutes.
  • Heavy when the container is full.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Unpack all components, ensuring the main filter is correctly seated.
  2. Connect the main hose to the extractor inlet and your power tool or attachment.
  3. If using disposal bags, insert one into the container before initial use for easier cleanup.
  4. Attach the desired nozzle or adapter to the end of the hose.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with most Bosch power tools and other brands using standard hose diameters.
  • Suitable for fine dust, coarse debris, and liquids.

Care:

  • Filter Maintenance: Regularly check the main filter. While AFC cleans it automatically, manual cleaning with a brush or compressed air may be necessary periodically for optimal performance.
  • Container Cleaning: Empty the dust container regularly. Wash the container with water and mild detergent if necessary, ensuring it is completely dry before reassembly.
  • Hose and Nozzle Cleaning: Remove any blockages from the hose, extension pipes, and nozzles. Rinse with water if needed and allow to dry.
  • Storage: Utilize the integrated hose storage for a compact footprint. Store in a dry, protected area.
