Maintenance - Vacmaster VQ1530SFDC Manual

For Wet Vacuuming:
1) To prepare your vacuum cleaner for wet vacuuming, remove the retainer cover and the dry use
cartridge filter.
2) Carefully install the supplied foam filter over the internal filter cage, making sure the whole cage
is covered (Fig. 8).
WARNING:
DO NOT USE THE CARTRIDGE FILTER FOR WET VACUUMING.
DO NOT USE A DUST COLLECTION BAG FOR WET VACUUMING.
IMPORTANT! When vacuuming large quantities of liquids, do not immerse the nozzle completely;
leave a gap at the tip of the nozzle to allow air inflow. The machine is fitted with a float valve that
stops the suction action when the container reaches its maximum capacity. You will notice an
increase in motor noise. When this happens, turn off the machine, disconnect from power supply,
and drain the liquid. To continue vacuuming, replace the drainage cap. After wet vacuuming, empty
the container, clean and dry inside before storage.
4. Blower Operation
WARNING: KEEP BYSTANDERS CLEAR FROM BLOWING DEBRIS.
WARNING: WEAR A DUST MASK IF BLOWING CREATES DUST THAT MIGHT BE
INHALED.
1) Make sure the container and any collected waste is emptied before using as a blower. This also
includes removal of the dust bag.
2) Insert the locking end of the hose into the blowing port on the rear of the power head (Fig. 9).
3) Turn on the motor on by turning the switch to the 'I' ON position.
WARNING: REMOVE THE POWERCORD FROM THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE
CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE.
1) Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust. Use a soft, dry
brush to clean the equipment regularly.
2) Clear all dirt or debris from the collection tank after each use. Allow to dry before replacing the
power head. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these may damage the appliance.
3) Check the hose, attachments, and power cord to verify that they have not been damaged or
any debris is trapped and blocking airflow.
1. Cleaning Cartridge Filte
Remove the filter and clean by gently tapping or brushing off dirt. For optimal performance it is
recommended to replace the old filter with a new filter regularly.
2. Cleaning Foam Filter
Remove the foam filter and use a mild soap and water solution to wash and rinse with clean water
(Fig. 10). Allow filter to air dry before installing and using again.
