VACUUMmNG DRY MATERIALS
1. The filter must be in correct
position
at all times to avoid
leaks and possible damage
to vac.
2
When
using your
vac to pick up very fine sawdust
from
drywall type material
it will be necessary
for you to empty
the drum and clean the filter at mere frequent
intervals
to
maintain
peak vac performance.
NOTE:
A dry filter is necessary
to pick up dry material.
If you
use your vac to pick up dust when the tilter is wet, the filter will
clog quickly and be very difficult to clean.
3. If your filter is wet but you need to use the vac to pick up
dry material,
you can quickly
dry the filter by runiling
the
vac without
hose attached
for 10 minutes.
The clean
air
rushing
through
the vac will dry the filter enough
for dry
pick up.
EMPTYING
DUST DRUM
1. To remove
lid to empty contents
of drum, simply pun flexi-
ble locking tabs on both sides of the drum to release
from
the lip of the drum.
It may be easier
to do by pressing
down on the handles
with the bottom
part of the palm of
your hand while pulling outward
on the flexible looking tabs
with your fingers.
2. While
holding
the tabs
back. lift the top assembly
up and
away from the drum
3. Lay top assembly
upside down on a clean area while empty-
ing drum or changing filter.
VACUUMING
LiQUiDS
1. When
the liquid
in the drum
reaches
a predetermined
level,
a float mechanism
will rise automatically
to cut off
airflow.
When
this happens,
turn off the vac. unplug
the
power cord, and empty the drum.
2. After
using the vac to pick up liquids,
the filter
must
be
dried to avoid possible
mildew and damage
to the filter.
3. When
picking up small amounts
of liquid the filter may be
teft in place.
4. When
picking
up large
amounts
of liquid we recommend
that the filter be removed,
tf the filter is not removed
it wil
