Operation  (continued)
Vacuuming Liquids
  
1.  Verify that the power cord is 
     disconnected from the outlet.  (Fig. 1)
2.  Remove cartridge filter as shown in
     Removing and Cleaning Cartridge Filter
     on page 10.  Then install the foam 
     sleeve filter as shown in Installing Foam 
     Sleeve Filter on page 12 and secure 
     power head back on the collection tank.  
DO NOT USE THE CARTRIDGE FILTER
FILTER FOR LIQUID VACUUMING.
3.  Fit the desired nozzle to the vacuum 
     hose.  (Fig. 2) 
4.  Verify that the power switch is in the ‘O’ 
     OFF position before plugging the power 
     cord into the outlet.   (Fig. 3) 
5.  Turn the motor on by pressing the 
     switch to the ‘I’ ON position.  (Fig. 4)
6.  Once you have completed vacuuming, 
     press the power switch to the 'O' (OFF) 
     position and unplug the power cord 
     from the outlet.
7.  After use, empty the collection tank by 
     unscrewing the drain cap and drain 
     liquids into suitable receptacle or drain.  
     (Fig. 5)   Remember to refit the drain 
     cap to the tank after draining.
 
IMPORTANT!  When vacuuming large 
quantities of liquids, do not immerse the 
nozzle completely in the liquid; leave a 
gap at the tip of the nozzle opening to 
allow air inflow. The machine is fitted with
a float valve that stops the suction action 
when the collection tank reaches its 
maximum capacity. You will notice an 
increase in motor speed.  When this 
happens, turn off the machine, disconnect 
from power supply, and drain the liquid into 
a suitable receptacle or drain.  To continue 
vacuuming, refit the collection tank with the 
drain cap. After wet vacuuming, turn the 
machine off and remove plug from power 
supply.  Empty the collection tank, clean 
and dry the inside and outside before 
storage.
REMEMBER! The foam filter must be 
removed after wet vacuuming, and a 
cartridge filter must be installed before 
dry vacuuming again.
