Vacuuming Liquids

WARNING:
!
Do not operate without filter cage and float,
as they prevent liquid from entering the impeller and
damaging the motor. For dry material pick-up,
do not operate without the filter in place to reduce the
risk of damage to the motor.
WARNING:
!
To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, do not vacuum
flammable or combustible liquids, gases or dust.
1. When picking up small amounts of liquid the Filter
may be left in place.
2. When picking up large amounts of liquid we
recommend that the Filter be removed. If the Filter
is not removed, it will become saturated and misting
may appear in the exhaust.
3. After using the Vac to pick up liquids, the Filter must
be dried to reduce the risk of possible mildew and
damage to the Filter.
4. When the liquid in the Drum reaches a predetermined
level, the Float mechanism will rise automatically to
cut off air-flow. When this happens, turn off the Vac,
unplug the Power Cord, and empty the Drum. You
will know that the Float has risen because Vac airflow
ceases and the Motor noise will become higher in
pitch, due to increased Motor Speed.
IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of damage to the Vac
do not run Motor with Float in raised position.
Emptying the Drum (Fig. S)
WARNING:
!
To reduce the risk of injury from accidental starting,
unplug power cord before emptying the drum.
1. Remove the Powerhead Assembly. Pull Latches to
release from the Drum.
2. Lift the Powerhead Assembly up and away from the
Drum.
3. Lay Powerhead Assembly upside down on a clean area
while emptying the Drum.
4. Dump the Drum contents into the proper waste
disposal container.
5. The Vac comes equipped with a Drain, simply
unscrew the Drain Cap and lift the opposite side
slightly to empty the Drum.
WARNING:
!
To reduce the risk of back injury or falls, do not lift a
Vac heavy with liquid or debris. Scoop or drain enough
contents out to make the Vac light enough to lift
comfortably.
