LIQUID VACUUM OPERATION

LIQUID VACUUMING
WARNING
ENTITLED 'IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS'. DO NOT VACUUM IN AREAS WITH
FLAMMABLE GASES, VAPORS, OR EXPLOSIVE DUSTS IN THE AIR. FLAMMABLE
GASES OR VAPORS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: LIGHTER FLUID,
SOLVENT TYPE CLEANERS, OIL-BASED PAINTS, GASOLINE, ALCOHOL, OR
AEROSOL SPRAYS. EXPLOSIVE DUSTS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:
COAL, MAGNESIUM, GRAIN, OR GUN POWDER. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF HEALTH
HAZARDS FROM VAPORS OR DUST, DO NOT VACUUM TOXIC MATERIALS.
WARNING
PLUG IS DISCONNECTED BEFORE CHANGING THE FILTERS.
1. Verify that the power cord is disconnected from the outlet. Make sure that the collection tank is
clean and free of dust and dirt (Fig. 1).
2. Remove the cartridge filter, then carefully install the foam wet filter over the filter cage and place
the power head back on the collection tank. For foam wet filter installation instructions, see page
15.
DO NOT USE THE CARTRIDGE FILTER FOR LIQUID VACUUMING.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS: WET VACUUMING
3. Push the required attachment onto the free end of the hose or extension wand (Fig. 2).
4. Ensure that the on/off switch is in the 'O' OFF position before plugging the power cord into the
outlet (Fig. 3).
5. Turn the motor on by flipping the switch to the 'I' ON position (Fig. 4).
6. Once you have completed vacuuming, flip the on/off switch to the 'O' (OFF) position and unplug
the power cord from the outlet.
7. After use, empty the collection tank by unscrewing the drain cap and drain liquids into suitable
receptacle or drain (Fig. 5). Remember to refit the drain cap to the tank.
IMPORTANT! When vacuuming large quantities of liquids, do not immerse the nozzle completely
in the liquid; leave a gap at the tip of the nozzle opening to allow air inflow. The machine is fitted
with a float valve that stops the suction action when the collection tank reaches its maximum
capacity. You will notice an increase in motor speed. When this happens, turn off the machine,
disconnect from power supply, and drain the liquid into a suitable receptacle or drain. After wet
vacuuming, turn the machine off and remove plug from power supply. Empty the collection tank,
clean and dry the inside and outside before storage.
REMEMBER! The foam wet filter must be removed after wet vacuuming and the cartridge filter
must be installed before dry vacuuming again.
