DRY VACUUM OPERATION
11. Insert the handle into slots
located on top of the power head
and secure it with the screws
provided. Do not overtighten the
screws. (See Figure 13)
12. Insert the locking end of the hose
into the vacuum port and turn to
lock into place. (See Figure 14)
13. Choose the desired accessories
and extension wands and push
onto the hose. (See Figure 15)
NOISE DIFFUSER
For quiet operation, install the noise diffuser into the
vacuum/blower port by inserting the locking end of the
diffuser into the blower port and turning clockwise to
lock into place.
POLARIZED PLUG
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this vacuum has
a polarized plug (one blade wider than the other).
This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If
plug does not fit fully in outlet, reverse plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install
the proper outlet. Do not alter the plug in any way.
Double insulation eliminates the need for the three-wire
grounded power cord and grounded power supply
system.

BEFORE VACUUMING
WARNING! Do not vacuum in areas with
flammable gases, vapors or explosive dusts
in the air. Flammable gases or vapors include,
but are not limited to, lighter fluid, solvent type
cleaners, oil-based paints, gasoline, alcohol or
aerosol sprays. Explosive dusts include, but are
not limited to, coal, magnesium, grain or gun
powder. To reduce the risk of health hazards
from vapors or dust, do not vacuum toxic
materials.
WARNING! Do not vacuum drywall dust,
fireplace soot or ash with a standard wet/dry
filter. This is a very fine dust that will not be
captured by the filter and may cause damage
to the motor. When vacuuming fine dust, use a
fine dust filter.
1. Verify that the power cord is
disconnected from the outlet.
(See Figure 16)
2. To prepare for dry vacuuming,
verify that the cartridge filter is
securely mounted. Ensure the
filter is pushed in until it stops
against the power head. Unit
comes with the cartridge filter
pre-installed. (See Figure 17)
3. Optional: For improved dust
filtering, fit collection bag flange
onto the inlet port, taking care not
to damage bag. (See Figure 18)
4. Place the power head back on
collection tank, aligning the top
section with latches, and snap
into place. (See Figure 19)
