5.2 Wet Vacuuming
Warning:
Do not use the wet & dry vacuum to vacuum toxic, hazardous or flammable substances/liquids.
N.B. Do NOT use the dust filter when wet vacuuming.
1.
Make sure that the plug is disconnected.
2. Remove the motor/top (5) and empty the container (1). Remove the dust filter (I) (if attached) and attach the
foam filter (G) onto the filter basket. Replace the motor/top (5) to the container and fasten it securely with the
over-centre catch (7).
3. Attach the hose (B) to the vacuum port (2). Press in and turn it clockwise until the hose is securely fastened.
Attach the accessory of your choice to the hose.
4.
Connect the plug to a wall socket.
5.
Start the motor by flipping the power switch (3) to the
I
=ON position.
6.
Turn off the motor by flipping the power switch to the
0
=OFF position when you are done. Pull the plug out.
Precautionary measures for wet vacuuming:
• Only use the foam filter (G) when wet vacuuming.
• Make sure that the foam filter is clean and dry and secure it onto the filter basket before starting
to vacuum any liquid.
• The safety cut-out float switch stops the vacuum from sucking when the water level in the container reaches
a certain level, thus preventing water from entering the motor. The motor will race when the suction function
has been stopped by the float. Switch the motor off and empty the container.
•
Empty the container before it becomes totally full and clean it after use.
• Clean the foam filter when it looks clogged. Remove the filter and wash it by hand in water with a mild
detergent, let it air-dry.
• Do not submerge the entire nozzle under the surface. Leave some space so that air can also pass through
when vacuuming a large amount of liquid.
•
Remember to reattach the filter before using the vacuum again. NEVER use the wet and dry vacuum
without a filter.
