OPERATION & MAINTENANCE

AUTOMATIC SUCTION SHUT-OFF AND EMPTYING LIQUID FROM TANK

This section relates to wet vacuuming operations. This vacuum is fitted with an automatic
suction shut-off float cup (A) Fig.13 which floats up when the liquid level increases in the tank,
it then stops the suction action when the tank has reached its maximum capacity of liquid. Make
sure the float cup is clean at all times.

The user will notice an increased motor speed, when this happens;

1) Turn off the vacuum immediately and unplug the power cord from the power source.

2) Remove the cover/motor assembly and lay it aside, being careful not to damage the filter and

empty the tank contents into a suitable waste disposal container by removing the drain cap
(A) Fig.14 found on the lower left side of the tank.

3) The inside of the tank should be cleaned, also check the foam filter and clean it from the

inside out if necessary.

4) To continue vacuuming wet materials, reposition and secure the cover/motor assembly, plug

the power cord to a power source and proceed.

BLOWER FEATURE

This vacuum can be used as a powerful blower. To use the blower feature, remove the noise
diffuser (A) Fig.15 from the blower outlet (B). Disconnect the flex hose from the front of the
vacuum and reconnect it to the blower outlet. Turn the vacuum On, your vacuum is now a
blower to clear work tables of debris, blow leaves etc...
