INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove the unit and other parts from the box and check against the packing list.
Remove the hose from inside the dust bin as well as any protective paper packing material.
2. Plug the power cord into a standard wall socket. Try the StoneVac II by pushing the switch to the
"ON" position.
3. The vacuum hose supplied slips onto the vacuum connection in the back of the unit and the other end
connects to the collection device desired. The ideal location for the StoneVac II is under the bench
where the user works. The single station hose supplied is 2½" x 6' long and accordions to the desired
length. Hose extensions and adaptors are available from your dealer. We recommend, however, that
you try to keep the total length of hose less than 6 feet between the StoneVac II and the dust collection
point; longer hose will reduce suction.
MAINTENANCE
1. Cleaning the Filter - When a noticeable drop in suction occurs in the unit, it is time to clean the filter.
To use the self-cleaning feature of the StoneVac II, push and hold the Power switch in the "CLEAN"
position for several seconds. Optimum cleaning takes place within 5 seconds. For best results, wait
an additional 10-15 seconds with the Power switch in the "OFF" or center position, this allows the dust
cleaned from the filter to fall into the dust bin before turning the unit on again.
2. Emptying the Dust Bin - Depending on usage, the unit will need to be emptied at different intervals.
To check the level of dust in the bin, open the door and observe the dust level. To empty, open the door
and slide the bin from the unit. Pull the edges of the bag together to close the bag for disposal. Replace
the bag with a Vaniman replacement and carefully slide the dust bin back into the unit. Replacement
bag re-order number P/N 97002 (pack of 12).
3. Replacing the Filter Cartridge - Regularly check the filter to make sure it is secure and properly seated
against the filter mounting/sealing plate. Periodically, the filter cartridge will become worn or clogged
beyond the use of the "CLEAN" feature. In cases when dust collector usage is heavy, changing interval
