This operator's manual has important information for the use and safe operation of the
vacuum cleaners detailed in this manual. Read this manual carefully before starting the
machine. Keep this manual available at all times and instruct all operators to read this
manual. If instructions are not followed, an injury may occur or equipment, furniture or
buildings may become damaged.
The contents of this manual are based on the latest product information available at the

manual are intended for commercial use.
WArNINGS
u uSE ONLy genuine Crusader replacement filters to ensure optimal performance,
improved indoor air quality and maintain a valid vacuum warranty.
u dO NOT vacuum with a frayed, worn, or damaged cord.
u dO NOT vacuum liquids or expose the vacuum to rain or water.
u dO NOT vacuum hazardous or toxic materials.
u dO NOT use vacuums to pick up flammable or combustible materials and do not
store them in the filter bay.
MOTOr
Electric thru-flow vacuum motors must never be used in applications in which wet or moist
conditions are involved, where dry chemicals or other volatile materials are present, or
where airflow may be restricted or blocked. Such motors are designed to permit the vacu-
umed air to pass over the electrical wiring to cool it. Therefore, any liquid (including water),
dry
chemical, or other foreign substance which would come in contact with electrical
conductors could cause combustion (depending on volatility) or electrical shock. Failure
to observe these precautions could result in property damage and severe personal injury,
including death in extreme cases.
ELECTrICAL
All backpack models are available in 120 volt/60 Hz. Some Crusader models are available in
220 volt/50 Hz, call Crusader for availability of 220 volt/50 Hz vacuums. This document only
applies to 120 volt/60 Hz, or 120 volt/400 Hz models. Severe changes in voltage, high or
low, can cause damage to the motor and cause premature motor failure. Model numbers
and specifications can be obtained by calling Crusader.
The vacuum cleaners described in this manual are equipped with a thermal protection
device. The integrated thermal switch will remove power from the vacuum motor in the
event excessively high operating temperatures are detected. This condition is normally the
result of a blocked vacuum passage, clogged or full filters.
Should a thermal trip take place, immediately turn off the vacuum and inspect for a
blockage and verify the condition of the filter bag and change or empty as required.
The vacuum will require several minutes to cool down to a safe operating temperature.
When this temperature is attained, the thermal switch will reset and the vacuum will be
able to be used in a normal manner.
