note:
to vacuum large quantities of liquid, from a sink or tank etc, do not
immerse the nozzle completely in the liquid, leave a gap at the top of the
nozzle opening to allow an air inflow. the machine is fitted with a float
valve which stops the suction action when the tank has reached its
maximum capacity. the user will notice an increase in motor speed.
When this happens, turn off the machine, disconnect from power supply,
remove the head from the container and empty the liquid into a suitable
receptacle or drain. (fig.4.6)
to continue vacuuming, refit the head and proceed. After wet vacuuming,
turn the machine off and unplug from power supply. empty the container
and clean and dry the inside and outside before storage.
remember!
After wet vacuuming the foam filter must be removed and a
cartridge filter must be fitted before dry vacuuming again.
WarnInG! not designed for liquid storage. always empty liquids
after use and before storing.
