Use & Function
Single tank operation
For picking up very large amounts of debris (either
wet or dry), the cleaner may also be operated without
the inner tank in place.
Disconnect Wet/Dry vac from electrical outlet.
Remove inner tank and set aside.
Attach hose to either the wet or dry intake port.
Plug power cord into a
properly grounded outlet
and
turn cleaner on.
When using single tank for dry pick-up, cartridge
filter must be in place.
For best results, when using single tank for wet
pick-up, use a Vax Large foam filter sleeve
instead of the cartridge filter. (Ref to Fig.18)
Automatic wet shut-off
When either tank is full of liquid, the automatic shut-off
mechanism will shut off Wet/Dry vac pick-up. When
this happens, the motor sound will become noticeably
higher in pitch. Turn Wet/Dry vac off and empty tank
to continue use.
The automatic shut-off will also engage if the Wet/Dry
vac has been tipped over. To continue use, turn
Wet/Dry vac off and set it upright. Wait a few seconds
to allow the motor to come to a complete stop.
The automatic shut-off will function for both
separate wet/dry tank and single tank operation.
Dry tank dust
For best results when picking up dry dust, slide wet/
dry selector (A) to expose ‘wet/dry inlet’ and make
sure no water or moisture is in the wet tank (outer tank).
Keep inner tank in position. Insert hose into ‘wet tank
inlet’ and attach desired tool to hose end.
Blower feature
The blower can be used to blow dirt out of areas
where it is impossible for suction to reach.
Inside of hose and tools must be free of litter
before operating blower.
It is recommended that the filters be in place when
operating the blower feature.
Disconnect Wet/Dry vac from electrical outlet.
Push hose into blower port (C); twist hose to
tighten or loosen connection. Attach blower nozzle or
other tool if desired.
CAUTION:
Wear safety goggles when using blower
feature. Do not blow toward people, animals, or
objects that may be damaged by flying debris.
Wear ear protection if using the blower for a
prolonged period of time.
Plug power cord into a
properly grounded outlet
,
grasp free end of hose, and turn cleaner ON.
