Operation (continued)

Vacuuming Dry Materials

1.  The Filter must always be in correct 

position at all times to avoid leaks 

and possible damage to Vac.

2.  When using your Vac to pick up very 

fine dust, it will be necessary for you 

to empty the Drum and clean the Filter 

at more frequent intervals to maintain 

peak Vac performance.

NOTE: A dry Filter is necessary to pick 

up dry material. If you use your Vac to 

pick up dust when the Filter is wet, the 

Filter will clog quickly and be very difficult 

to clean.

Vacuuming Liquids

1.  When picking up small amounts of 

liquid (less than 5 cm (2 inches) 

of liquid in the bottom of the Drum) 

the Filter may be left in place.

2.  When picking up large amounts of 

liquid (more than 5 cm (2 inches) 

of liquid in the bottom of the Drum) 

we recommend that the Filter be 

removed. If the Filter is not removed, 

it will become saturated and misting 

may appear in the exhaust.

3.  When the liquid in the Drum reaches 

a predetermined level, the Float 

mechanism will rise automatically to cut 

off airflow. You will know that the Float 

has risen because Vac airflow ceases 

and the motor noise will become higher 

in pitch, due to increased motor speed. 

When this happens, turn off the Vac, 

unplug the Power Cord, and empty 

the Drum. 

4.  After using the Vac to pick up liquids, 

the Filter must be dried to avoid 

possible mildew and damage to the 

Filter.

IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of 

damage to the Vac, do not run Motor 

with Float in raised position.

Familiarize yourself with the Accessories 

included with the Vac. Each Accessory 

may be used in various ways for 

vacuuming and blowing debris. Here is 

a list of the Accessories and their uses.
Car Nozzle - Dry pickup nozzle for car 

interiors and most upholstery cleaning.
Utility Nozzle - General purpose nozzle 

for most vacuuming applications.
Extension Wands - These wands can 

be connected together and provides 

additional length for more reach.
Professional Locking Hose - Provides 

transfer of vacuum or blowing capability 

to work site. Provides the means of 

attaching extension wands and nozzles.

 

WARNING:

Do not operate without filter cage 

and float, as they prevent liquid from 

entering the impeller and damaging 

the motor.
