AUTOMATIC SUCTION SHUT-Off

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 previous paragraph.
NOTE: If ACCIdenTALLy TIPPed OVeR, The VACuuM COuLd LOSe SuCTIOn. If ThIS OCCuRS,

LUBRICATION
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 tool holder (not
standard with all models) installed on rear of unit
(figure 27). If your unit does not come with a tool
holder, the cord can be wound around the tank cover
(figure 28). 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.
