3. Remove the cartridge fi lter and dust bag, and install
a foam fi lter over the fi lter basket and place the top
section back on the tank (Fig. 9).
4. DO NOT use the cartridge fi lter for wet or sharp
materials. Fit the desired nozzle to the vacuum hose
(Fig. 12).
5. Ensure that the switch is in the ‘O’ (OFF) position
before plugging the power cord into the power
outlet.
6. Turn the motor on by fl ipping the switch to the “I”
(ON) position (Fig. 14).
7. After use, fl ip the switch to the “O” position (Fig. 15)
and unplug the power cord, then empty and dry the
tank (Fig. 16).
WARNING
The foam fi lter must be removed after wet
vacuuming, and a cartridge fi lter must be installed
before dry vacuuming again.
IMPORTANT!
When vacuuming large quantities of liquids, do not
immerse the nozzle completely in the liquid; leave a gap
at the tip of the nozzle opening to allow air infl ow.
The machine is fi tted with a fl oat valve that stops the
suction action when the container reaches its maximum
capacity. You will notice an increase in motor speed.
When this happens, turn off the machine, disconnect
from power supply, and drain the liquid into a suitable
receptacle or drain. To continue vacuuming, refi t the
container with the drain cap. After wet vacuuming, turn
the machine off and remove plug from power supply.
Empty the container, clean and dry the inside and
outside before storage.
BLOWER OPERATION
This Wet/Dry Vac has blowing capabilities.
To use the blower feature follow the instructions listed.
WARNING
Always wear safety goggles before using blower.
Keep bystanders clear from blowing debris.
Wear a dust mask if blowing creates dust that might
be inhaled
1. Insert the large end of the hose into the blower
connection in the top of the motor housing (Fig. 17).
2. Fit the crevice tool to the vacuum hose (Fig. 18).
Ensure the power switch is turned off and plug in the
power supply.
3. Turn the motor on by fl ipping the switch to the “I”
(ON)position (Fig. 14).
4. The unit will now blow through the vacuum hose and
can be used to clear obstructions within the hose.
(Fig. 19)
5. Once you have fi nished operation, fl ip the switch to
the ‘O’ (OFF) position and unplug the power cord
from the power outlet. (Fig. 15)
WARNING
If after a few seconds the hose continues to be
blocked, turn off the unit and clear the hose
manually.
MAINTENANCE
1. Verify that the power cord is disconnected from the
outlet. Disconnect the hose from the container
(Fig. 20).
2. Undo the clamps and remove the top section from
the container (Fig. 21).
3. Clear all dirt or debris from the container and hose
(Fig. 22).
4. Clean the cartridge fi lter by gently tapping or
brushing dirt off. For optimal performance it is
recommended to regularly change this fi lter
depending on level of use (eg. 3-6 months).
Cartridge fi lter is not washable.
5. Use a mild soap and water solution to wash foam
fi lter and rinse with clean water. (Fig. 23)
6. Check the hoses, attachments, and power cord to
verify that they have not been damaged.
IMPORTANT!
CHANGE THE DUST FILTER REGULARLY. IF THE
MACHINE IS USED WITHOUT THE DUST FILTER,
THE MOTOR WILL BURN OUT AND THE WARRANTY
