Efficiency of the vacuum is largely dependent on the filter. To clean the reusable dry filter, remove
from lid cage and shake off excess dirt and dust. A water rinse can also be used depending on the
condition of the filter. Allow the filter to dry before installing back on the lid cage. Do NoT MAChINE

INSTALLING THE CARTRIDGE fILTER
(Not standard with all models)
NOTE: If foam sleeve is in position over lid cage, it must be removed before installing cartridge filter.
The cartridge filter can be used for wet or dry pick up; instal-
lation is the same for both. When picking up large quantities
of liquid please refer to the Wet Pick Up operation section
in this manual. Use the cartridge filter in position over the
lid cage for most general dry material pick up. With the tank
cover in an upside down position, slide the cartridge filter
down over the lid cage, pushing until the filter seals against
the cover (figure 21). Place filter retainer into the top of the
cartridge filter, hold the tank cover with one hand, turn the
handle on the filter retainer clockwise to tighten, locking the
filter into place (figures 22 & 23). To remove the filter for
cleaning, again hold the tank cover and turn the filter retainer
counter-clockwise to loosen and remove, slide the cartridge
filter off the lid cage (figures 24 & 25). To clean the car-
tridge filter shake or brush off excess dirt or rinse (from the
inside of the filter) with water, dry completely (approximately
24 hours) and reinstall (figures 26 & 27). NOTE: If the filter has been used for
wet pick up, it must be cleaned and dried before using for dry pick up.
INSTALLING THE DISPOSABLE
FILTER BAG
(Not standard with all models)
1. Use for dry pick up only. Use in conjunction with cartridge
filter for picking up soot, cement, plaster or drywall dust.
2. With cord disconnected from receptacle, pull latches in an
outward motion and remove tank cover.
3. Grasp cardboard collar firmly and slide rubber guard onto
inlet fitting as far as possible (Figure 28).
4. When secured in place, expand bag and position around the inside of the tank (Figure 29).
WARNING fOR fINE
DUST & POWDERS
When vacuuming fine dust, or powders of any kind (ex. plaster, drywall dust, cold ashes, concrete
dust, etc.)...a high efficiency drywall filter bag must be used. When vacuuming normal house-
hold dust and debris, standard household disposable filter bags may be used. These "large bag"
filters connect to the air inlet fitting on the inside of the vacuum tank.

WET PICk UP OPERATION
Remove ALL dirt and debris found in the tank. The vacuum requires only a minimum of conver-
sion when going from dry to wet pick up. Wet pick up requires the foam sleeve (not standard
on all models) to be in position over the lid cage. Do not use the reusable dry filter for wet pick
up. Misting in exhaust air may occur if the foam sleeve becomes saturated during wet pick up. If
misting occurs, remove and dry the saturated foam sleeve or replace with another dry foam sleeve
to eliminate the misting and possible dripping of liquid around the lid. Turn the unit off immediately
upon completing a wet pick up job or when tank is full and ready to be emptied. Raise the hose
to drain any excess liquid into the tank. The interior of the tank should be periodically cleaned.

The foam sleeve should be cleaned periodically as described in the following steps:
1. Always disconnect the plug from the wall receptacle before removing the tank cover. Place tank
cover in an upside down position. Remove foam sleeve by sliding it up and off the lid cage.
2. Shake excess dust off foam sleeve with a rapid up and down movement.
3. hold foam sleeve under running water for a minute or two, rinsing from the inside. A water wash
is not always required, depending on the condition of the foam sleeve.
4. Gently wring out excess water, blot foam sleeve with a clean towel, and allow to dry. The foam
sleeve is now ready to be reinstalled on the lid cage.

This vacuum can be used as a powerful blower. To use your unit as a
blower insert hose end into the top exhaust port (figure 30). Clear hose
of any obstructions before attaching to blower port. Caution should be
used when using as a blower due to the powerful force of air when using
certain attachments.

empty, stop the motor and remove the plug from the wall receptacle. Remove the tank cover and
24
deposit the liquid waste contents in a suitable drain. After the tank is empty, return the cover to
its original position. To continue use, plug the cord into the wall receptacle and start the motor.

AUTOMATIC SUCTION SHUT-Off

27
The vacuum is equipped with an automatic suction shut-off that operates when picking up liquids.
As the level of the liquid rises in the tank, an internal float rises until it seats itself against a seal
at the intake of the motor, shutting off suction. When this happens, the motor will develop a
higher than normal pitch noise and the suction is drastically reduced. If this occurs, turn unit off
immediately. Failure to turn unit off after float rises and shuts off suction will result in extensive
damage to the motor. To continue use, empty the liquid waste from the tank as outlined in the
26
previous paragraph.
NOTE: IF ACCIDENTALLY TIPPED oVER, ThE VACUUM CoULD LoSE SUCTIoN. IF ThIS
oCCURS, TURN UNIT oFF AND PLACE VAC IN UPRIGhT PoSITIoN. ThIS WILL ALLoW ThE

No lubrication is necessary as the motor is equipped with lifetime lubricated bearings.

before storing your vacuum cleaner the tank should be emptied and cleaned.
The power cord can be wrapped around the cord wraps provided on the tank
cover on rear of unit (Figure 31). Accessories may be stored in the tool holder
(not standard on all models) so they can be readily available. The vacuum
should be stored indoors.
