ASSEMBLY AND OPERATION
Unpack your vacuum from its carton and inspect the ma-
chine, hose assembly and tools for any damage. If there is
damage to any component, file a claim with the carrier imme-
diately.
Assembly
This machine requires little assembly before operation. How-
ever, the following steps must be taken to ensure proper
operation.
1.
Install a
filter bag
into the tank. Release the hook lo-
cated on each side of the machine’s tank and motor
assembly. Lift the cover off and set it aside. Slide the
bag retaining plate (Item 6) off the bag adapter. Then
push the filter bag opening over the adapter and slide
the bag retaining plate over both the bag cuff and the
adapter. Be sure the filter bag follows the perimeter of
the tank; the center area must remain clear for replace-
ment of the cover with motor assembly. Replace the
cover and fasten both hooks.
2.
Insert the
vacuum hose assembly
into the adapter. Line
up the tabs on the vacuum hose with the notches on
the adapter and twist to secure in place. Then attach
the wand and selected tool. The wand and tools attach
by simply pushing them together.
Operation
The Model shown in this manual is intended for commercial
use and is to be used for
only dry pick-up applications.
1.
Before use, be sure a
filter bag
has been properly in-
stalled in the machine (reference assembly instructions).
2.
Attach the
hose assembly
,
wand
and
selected tools
.
3.
Plug the
power cord
into a 115-volt, 60 cycle, grounded
outlet.

Press the
power switch
to start the vacuum. The switch
is located on the back left side of the vacuum, under the
accessory holder.
5.
The
vacuum suction
is adjustable by turning the red
knob located on the back right side of the vacuum. Mi-
nor adjustments to the vacuum suction can also be made
by sliding the lever on the bent wand section of the
hose assembly. For maximum pick-up the opening must
be closed, for reduced suction expose the opening.

Four tools are provided with the vacuum: the combination
floor tool, upholstery tool, crevice tool and dusting brush.
Each is used by inserting them directly into the free end of
the vacuum hose/wand.
An adjustable metal wand is also provided. Simply push

Servicing
Warning: Always unplug your vacuum before per-
forming any service. Severe personal injury could
result if the electrical power is not disconnected.
