HSS Hire 458 Operating & Safety Manual

Always position yourself so you can control the
vacuums whereabouts while ensuring that neither of
the hose or the power supply cable are under strain.
Move the wand back-wards in straight strips across
the floor, working in a methodical pattern to ensure the
entire area is vacuumed.
Take your time and don't over do it. You are more
likely to have an accident if you are tired or rushing.
If you do not switch the auto pump ON, once the
waste tank is filled to its maximum capacity, the
sound of the motor will increase and the suction
will stop.
When this happens, turn the vacuum OFF (move
the switch to the '0' position), then making sure that
the discharge hose is routed to a suitable
discharge point, switch the auto pump ON.
Once the waste tank is empty, the pump will
automatically stop. If the discharge hose has to be
removed from the discharge point, make sure that
you switch the pump OFF before proceeding.
When you have finished with the vacuum, empty
the contents via the pump and discharge hose
then switch everything OFF and disconnect the
vacuum from its power supply.
Disconnect the vacuum hose and wand and the

EQUIPMENT CARE
Never push the equipment beyond its design
limits. If it will not do what you want with reasonable
ease and speed, assume you have the wrong tool for the
job. Contact your local HSS Hire Shop for advice.
Keep the equipment clean – you will find this less of a
chore if you clean it regularly, rather than wait until the
end of the hire period.
Remember, it is your responsibility to dispose of the
contents of the waste tank in a responsible manner.
When not in use, store the equipment somewhere
clean, dry and safe from thieves.
Switch OFF and unplug the vacuum. Clean the
inlet filter box and remove any remaining liquid
from the waste tank as described in BASIC
TECHNIQUES.
