Wet Nozzle - RIDGID WD1665 Owner's Manual

Wet Nozzle

To pick up liquids off a smooth surface, use
the 2-1/2" wet nozzle accessory supplied
with your wet/dry vac. To use, simply attach
the nozzle to the end of an extension wand.
Connect a second extension wand to the
first, and connect the 2-1/2" x 7' hose to the
extension wand.
Liquids may be picked up by dragging the
nozzle across the surface. The squeegee
will dry the surface as you vacuum.
If the rubber becomes worn, it may be
flipped over for use on the opposite side or
replaced. (Replacement service part
#822256). To reverse or replace the squee-
gee:
1. Lay the wet nozzle on a flat surface with
the round inlet opening facing up and
the two latches close to you as shown.
Removable
2. Using both hands, position each thumb
on the removable insert, (below the
latches) and two fingers of each hand
on each latch, lift and disengage the
two latches from the tabs on the nozzle
body.
3. Gently pull the latches toward yourself
to remove the insert.
To reinstall the removable insert correctly,
follow these steps:
1. Place the removable insert on a flat sur-
face with the pins positioned upward
and the latches close to you as shown.
Place the rubber squeegee on the
insert, with the pins fitting through the
matching holes in the squeegee. (Make
sure the new working edge is located
farthest from you.)

2. Using both hands, lower the nozzle
body onto the insert and squeegee with
the round opening of the nozzle closest
to you. With fingers on the far side and
thumbs holding the latches of the
removable insert, flip the nozzle over so
the latches are on the top and the round
inlet opening is facing away from you.
Make sure the squeegee stays on the
insert pins.
3. Press down with each thumb below the
latching tabs until you see and hear the
removable insert snap into the nozzle
body. Snap the latches over the locking
tabs into their original position.
4. Inspect the pins of the insert to make
sure they fit through the holes of the
squeegee and fit into the matching slots
in the nozzle body.
NOTE: If the pins are out position, hold
the nozzle assembly with both hands
and gently twist in opposite directions.
The insert pins should snap into
proper position.
