Operation & Maintenance; When To Change Bag Or Empty Debris Pail; How To Empty Debris Pail (Pp6501 And Pp7001 Power Units Only); Disposable Bag Replacement - NuTone PP5501 User Manual

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Open the inlet cover and insert the end of the hose into the inlet to turn on the vacuum.
For non-switched hoses, inserting the hose automatically turns on the power unit; removing
the hose shuts off the power unit. Some hoses have switches which can be used to activate
power unit. Unless using the utility valve (PP7001 unit only) the ON/OFF switch located on
the power unit needs to be kept in the OFF position.
As you vacuum, dirt and dust are carried to the power unit where they remain in a bag or in
the debris pail (according to the power unit model).
Use the cleaning tools as you would for any other vacuum cleaner. Avoid picking up very large
debris or lengthy as these kinds of objects may become lodged in the hose or tubing.

WHEN TO CHANGE BAG OR EMPTY DEBRIS PAIL

With a 6 U.S. gallons capacity, under normal conditions the bag/debris pail requires changing/
emptying approximately twice a year. If the bag/debris pail is full, you will notice a reduced
suction from the system. Unless this loss of suction is caused by a blockage in the system,
changing the bag or emptying the debris pail will solve the problem.
NOTE: Even if not filled to capacity, if the bag seems tightly stretched when removing the
debris pail, changing the bag will prevent it from tearing.
HOW TO EMPTY DEBRIS PAIL
(PP6501 AND PP7001 POWER UNITS ONLY)
To empty the debris pail, release both latches on sides of the unit by pulling out and then
pushing up. Holding the pail by the latches, lower it from unit. Carry pail to trash receptacle
and dispose of debris. Put the pail back in its place.
