NOTE:
If you want to vacuum up
a large quantity of liquid from a sink
or a tank, please don’t put the entire
suction nozzle in the liquid; rather
leave a little space so that some
air can also be drawn in along with
the liquid.
The appliance is equipped with a float switch
Â
that will stop the vacuuming when the tank
is full. You will notice that suction has stopped
by the motor now running faster. In this event,
switch the appliance off and unplug it.
Be aware that the full tank can be very heavy.
In this event, remove the motor housing from
the tank
B
and pour the rest of the liquid into
a suitable tank or drain. Then you can continue
vacuuming after you have replaced the motor
housing

After wet vacuuming, switch off the appliance
and unplug it. Empty the container and clean/
dry it inside and outside.
Tools AnD
ACCessoRIes
Hose handle with suction control
valve
Ï
Fit this between the hose and tubes. This gives
additional length to the tube and allows control
of the suction. Rotate the valve to open. With
the valve open, the suction to the nozzle will be
reduced making it easier to push. For maximum
suction, have the valve fully closed.
2-position wheeled floor nozzle
Î
Use this nozzle for dry vacuum cleaning large
areas of floor when the particles are small to
medium sized.
Use with the brushes down on hard floors and
up on carpets. Press the foot pedal to lower or
raise the brushes as required.
Wet pick-up/large particle nozzle
fi
Use this nozzle, with the brushes and flexible
strip attached, for wet vacuum cleaning floors.
When picking up larger particles, the brush
and flexible strip section of the nozzle may be
removed by pressing the clips at either end of
the nozzle.
Upholstery nozzle
·
This may be used with either wet or dry
vacuuming and is intended for smaller areas
such as furniture.
Crevice tool
‡
This may be used with either wet or dry
vacuuming and is useful for small gaps and when
high spot suction is required.
Anti-crush hose
›
Avoid picking up very large particles, especially
when using the hose without a nozzle, as these
may become trapped in the hose.
