SET-UP:
Connect the vacuum/recovery hose to the vacuum inlet hose barb on
the front of the recovery tank. Connect one or two of the dump hoses
to the hose fitting on the rear of the machine. Put the lid on the re-
covery tank. Plug the machine into a grounded outlet.
VACUUM OPERATION:
A switch is provided for each vacuum motor. The machine can
operate with either one or both vacuum motors running. If only one
vacuum is needed, use VAC 1; a one-way valve allows VAC 1 to
create a suction by preventing air from being pulled through VAC 2,
when VAC 2 is not running.
VACUUM SHUT-OFF:
When the recovery tank is full, the float system will shut off power to
the vacuum motor(s) to prevent water from entering the motor(s).
The float may not work properly if it is extremely dirty or if there is
foam in the tank. Once the tank is emptied sufficiently, the vacuums
will come back on automatically.
PUMP OPERATION:
Always be sure to uncap the pump-out fitting and connect the dump
hose before turning the pumps on. Failure to do so may result in
blown hoses or loose fittings; water will damage motors and switches.
The two diaphram pumps on your Flood Pumper work together.
When you turn the pump switch on, both pumps will run, and they will
continue to run until you turn them off. Do not let the pumps run dry
for extended periods of time.
