25. Liquid waste may be emptied by removing the
vacuum housing. To empty, stop the motor and remove
the plug from the wall receptacle. Unsecure bucket
handle from notches in securement arms and rest top
of handle against side of bucket. Pull securement arms
in an outward motion and remove the vacuum housing.
Deposit the liquid waste contents in a suitable drain.
After bucket is empty, return the housing to its original
position, make sure securement arms are clamped
securely and bucket handle is secured in notches on
securement arms. To continue use, plug the cord into
the wall receptacle and turn the unit on.
26. The vacuum is equipped with an automatic suction
shut-off that operates when picking up liquids. As the
level of the liquid rises in the tank, an internal float rises
until it seats itself against a seal at the intake of the

motor, shutting off suction. When this happens, the
motor will develop a higher than normal pitch noise and
the suction is drastically reduced. If this occurs, turn
unit off immediately. Failure to turn unit off after float
rises and shuts off suction will result in extensive
damage to the motor. To continue use, empty the liquid
waste from the tank as outlined in the previous
section.
NOTE:
IF ACCIDENTALLY TIPPED OVER, THE
VACUUM COULD LOSE SUCTION. IF THIS OCCURS,
TURN UNIT OFF AND PLACE VAC IN UPRIGHT
POSITION. THIS WILL ALLOW THE FLOAT TO RETURN
TO ITS NORMAL POSITION, AND YOU WILL BE ABLE
TO CONTINUE OPERATION.
27. No lubrication is necessary as the motor is equipped
with lifetime lubricated bearings.
28. Before storing your vacuum cleaner the bucket
should be emptied and cleaned.
The vacuum should
be stored indoors.
