OPERATION TIPS
•
The filter must always be in correct position to avoid
leaks and possible damage to the machine.
•
When you use your machine, it will be necessary for you
to empty the collection tank and clean the filter at more
frequent intervals to maintain peak vac performance.
•
When the liquid in the collection tank reaches a
predetermined level, the float mechanism will rise
automatically to cut off air-flow. This will cause the
suction stop and the higher motor noise. When this
happens:
1. Turn off the machine.
2. Remove the battery pack.
3. Empty the collection tank.
•
Dry the filter after you use the machine to avoid mildew
and damage to the machine.
