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:
MAKE SURE PLUG IS DISCONNECTED BEFORE CHANGING THE FILTERS
1. Verify that the power cord is disconnected from the outlet. (fig.1)
2. Remove reusable cloth filter, then carefully install the foam sleeve filter over the filter cage and place the
power head back on the container. (fig. 2, 3 & 4) See filter installation instructions on page 12.
DO NOT USE THE REUSABLE CLOTH FILTER FOR LIQUID VACUUMING.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS – WET VACUUMING
3. Fit the desired nozzle to the vacuum hose. (fig. 5)
4. Verify that the switch is in the ‘O’ OFF position before plugging the power cord into the outlet. (fig. 6)
5. Turn the motor on by flipping the switch to the ‘I’ ON position. (fig. 7)
6. After use, empty the container, clean and dry the inside and outside before storage. (fig. 8)
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 power head to the container. 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 reusable cloth filter must be
installed before dry vacuuming again.
