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 designated 15 AMP circuit. Turn on the StoneVac by flipping the switch to
the ON position. Use the rotary switch to control the speed of the motor.
3. The 2.5" vacuum hose supplied slips onto the vacuum connection in the back of the unit and the
other end connects to the top of the Large Accumulator. The 1.5" vacuum hose connects from the
Large Accumulator's inlet arm to the collection point in your post-processing area. The ideal location
for the StoneVac is near the post-processing area. 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 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, push and hold the Power switch in the "CLEAN"
position for several seconds. Optimum cleaning takes place in 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).
