LIQUID VACUUM OPERATION
LIQUID VACUUMING
WARNING:
BE SURE TO READ, UNDERSTAND, AND APPLY INFORMATION, ENTITLED 'SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS'. DO NOT VACUUM IN AREAS WITH FLAMMABLE GASES, VAPORS, OR
EXPLOSIVE DUSTS IN THE AIR. FLAMMABLE GASES OR VAPORS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO;
LIGHTER FLUID, SOLVENT TYPE CLEANERS, OIL-BASE PAINTS, GASOLINE, ALCOHOL OR AEROSOL
SPRAYS. EXPLOSIVE DUSTS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO; COAL, MAGNESIUM, GRAIN OR GUN
POWDER. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF HEALTH HAZARDS FROM VAPORS OR DUST, DO NOT VACUUM TOXIC
MATERIALS.
WARNING:
DO NOT PLUG IN POWER CORD TO POWER OUTLET, MAKE SURE PLUG IS DISCONNECTED
BEFORE ASSEMBLING THE WET/DRY VACUUM.
1. Verify that the power cord is disconnected from the outlet. (fig. 1) Verify that the container is clean and free of dust and
dirt.
2. Remove cartridge filter, then carefully install the foam sleeve filter over the filter cage and place the power head back
on the container. (fig. 2) See filter installing instructions on page 11.
DO NOT USE CARTRIDGE FILTER FOR LIQUID VACUUMING.
3. Fit the desired nozzle to the vacuum hose. (fig. 3)
4. Verify that the switch is in the 'O' OFF position before plugging the power cord into the outlet. (fig. 4)
5. Turn the motor on by flipping the switch to the 'I' ON position. (fig. 5)
6. After use, empty the container by unscrewing the drain cap. (fig. 6) Drain Liquids into a suitable receptacle or drain. (fig.
7) Remember to refit the drain cap to the container after draining container.
IMPORTANT! When vacuuming large quantities of liquids, do not immerse the nozzle completely in the liquid; leave a
gap at the tip of the nozzle opening to allow air inflow. The machine is fitted with a float valve that stops the suction action
when the container reaches its maximum capacity. You will notice an increase in motor speed. When this happens,
turn off the machine, disconnect from power supply, and drain the liquid into a suitable receptacle or drain. To continue
vacuuming, refit the container with the drain cap. After wet vacuuming, turn the machine off and remove plug from power
supply. Empty the container, clean and dry the inside and outside before storage.
REMEMBER! The foam filter must be removed after wet vacuuming, and a cartridge filter must be installed before dry
vacuuming again.
