As I said "you will not be disappointed" and I am glad you are not, I use mine extensively for dust extraction too picking up plaster from skimming a wall, just seems to keep on going no matter what I throw at it, mind you the Numatic was stored in a barn for nearly 20 years one motor started as soon as it was switch on, the other took at least thirty seconds to start, to say I was impressed is an understatement.

I am going to attach a filter to the rear outlet (which is like a mini fan heater and blows quite a lot of air around) to both slow down the blast and add a third stage to the on board filter and bag.

If you're going to do this, just be sure to check that the extra filter doesn't overheat the motor. It's an exhaust after all, so it's designed to move hot air away from the motor

I certainly don't need an additional filter on my Karcher and would be wary of fitting one for the overheating reason you state. The bag can be emptied 3 - 4 times before the pores get blocked and suction reduces and it needs changing. The second filter, a cartridge, hardly has any dust on it and can go months without needing a clean.

Point taken, thanks, in fact I've just been using it and it dose warm things up so I won't be doing that now.
