MOUNTING THE VACUUM ON TO THE RACK
1. Measure the distance from the top screw hole of the mounting rack to the closest electrical outlet and
add 12 inches. This is the amount of cord needed; wind the excess power cord around the cord wrap
area located on the rear of the vacuum. (fig. 8)
2. Make sure the cord is not
nto part A on the back of the container. (fig.9)
3. Mount the vacuum onto the mounting rack by aligning the vac hanging hook (A) with slot (B) on the
mounting rack and slide downward until it locks. When trying to mount vac onto the rack , please hold the
plug and make sure the cable is not hanging between rack and the back of the vac to be clamped . (fig.
10)
4. Attach the tool caddy on either side of the vac onto the hooks provided. (fig.11)
5. Your vacuum comes ready for vacuum cleaning. If the cartridge filter is not installed refer to page
10 for filter installation. fig. 12 & 13
6. For improved dust filtration when dry vacuuming, install the fine dust collection bag. To install the
collection bag, firmly slide cardboard collar opening onto the vacuum port deflector, then position the bag
so that it is distributed around the inside of the tank.

DO NOT USE THE DUST COLLECTION BAG FOR LIQUID VACUUMING. WHEN WET VACUUM,
PLEASE USE CARTRIDGE FILTER ONLY AS FILTERS.
7. Insert the locking end of the hose into the port of the container and lock in to place. (fig. 15)
8. Choose the desired accessories and push onto the suction tube. (fig. 16)
POLARIZED PLUG
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one with the blade wider than the
other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the
plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and
grounded power supply system.
DISMOUNTING THE VACUUM FROM THE RACK
1. Disconnect the power cord form the electrical outlet. (fig. 1)
2. Press the release lever with your left hand. (fig. 2)
3. Lift the vacuum up and out of the rack by the handle with your right hand. (fig. 3)
