3. Setup

The Scheppach NTS30 requires some assembly before first use. Follow these steps to prepare your vacuum cleaner for operation.

Assembly:

1. Attach the Wheels: Securely attach the four wheels to the base of the vacuum cleaner.
2. Connect the Hose: Insert the flexible suction hose into the designated inlet port on the vacuum cleaner. Ensure it clicks into place securely.
3. Assemble the Suction Tubes: Connect the metal suction tubes to each other and then to the hose handle.
4. Attach Nozzle: Select the appropriate nozzle (e.g., floor nozzle, crevice nozzle) and attach it to the end of the suction tube.

Filter Installation:

• For Dry Vacuuming: Install the paper dust bag inside the container. Ensure it is properly seated around the inlet. For fine dust, an additional HEPA filter (not included) may be recommended.
• For Wet Vacuuming: Remove the paper dust bag. Install the foam filter over the motor housing. This filter protects the motor from liquids.

4. Operating

The Scheppach NTS30 offers three primary functions: wet vacuuming, dry vacuuming, and blowing.

Dry Vacuuming:

• Ensure the paper dust bag is installed and the foam filter is removed.
• Connect the power plug to a suitable electrical outlet (230V~).
• Turn the vacuum cleaner ON using the power switch.
• Use the appropriate nozzle for the surface (e.g., combination nozzle for carpets or smooth floors).

Wet Vacuuming:

• Remove the paper dust bag. Ensure the foam filter is correctly installed over the motor housing.
• Do not use the paper dust bag for wet vacuuming.
• Connect the power plug and turn the unit ON.
• Vacuum liquids. The float valve will automatically shut off suction when the container is full to prevent overflow.
• Empty the container immediately after wet vacuuming.

Blowing Function:

• Disconnect the suction hose from the inlet port.
• Connect the suction hose to the exhaust (blower) port, typically located on the back or side of the motor head.
• Turn the unit ON. The vacuum cleaner will now function as a blower, useful for clearing debris from hard-to-reach areas.

Tool Power Outlet:

The NTS30 is equipped with an integrated tool power outlet (230 V~, Max. 2000 W) on the motor head. This allows you to connect power tools directly to the vacuum cleaner. When the connected tool is switched on, the vacuum cleaner will automatically start, providing synchronized dust extraction. It will also switch off a few seconds after the tool is turned off to clear any remaining dust from the hose.

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Scheppach NTS30 vacuum cleaner. Always disconnect the power plug before any maintenance.

Emptying the Container:

For both wet and dry vacuuming, the 30 L stainless steel container should be emptied regularly. The quick-release fasteners allow for fast and convenient emptying.

Filter Cleaning and Replacement:

• Foam Filter (Wet Vacuuming): After wet vacuuming, remove the foam filter and rinse it thoroughly with water. Allow it to air dry completely before re-installing or storing.
• Paper Dust Bag (Dry Vacuuming): Replace the paper dust bag when it is full or when suction power decreases significantly. Do not attempt to reuse or clean paper bags.
• General Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior of the vacuum cleaner with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
