EMPTYING THE COLLECTION TANK
WARNING: ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE PLUG FROM THE POWER OUTLET BEFORE
REMOVING THE POWER HEAD FROM COLLECTION TANK.
1. Verify that the power cord is disconnected from the outlet (Fig. 1).
2. Press down the latch on the cleaning solution outlet coupling and unplug the delivery tube from
the vacuum. Then disconnect the hose from the vacuum (Fig. 2).
3. Undo the latches and remove the power head from the collection tank (Fig. 3). Place the power
head on a soft, clean surface upside down.
4. Clear all dirt or debris from the collection tank and hose into a proper waste container (Fig. 4).
5. Clean or replace the filters (Fig. 5).
6. Check the hose, attachments, and power cord to ensure that they have not been damaged.
7. Place the power head back onto the collection tank and secure latches.
IMPORTANT! Clean or change the filter regularly for best performance. ALWAYS USE THE
CARTRIDGE FILTER FOR DRY VACUUMING. If the machine is used without the cartridge filter,
the motor will burn out and the warranty will be voided. Always keep spare filters on hand.
NOTICE! The filters included are made of high quality materials designed to stop small dust
particles. The cartridge filter should be used for dry pick-up only. A dry cartridge filter is necessary
to pick up dust. If the cartridge filter is wet, it will clog quickly and be very difficult to clean. Handle
the filter carefully when removing it for cleaning and replacing it. Check the filters for tears or small
holes. A small hole can let dust pass through and out of the filter. Do not use a filter with holes or
tears; replace it immediately.
