Hoover 120 V 60 HZ 用户手册

If you have a hose without switches, the
Power Canister will start as soon as the
hose is inserted into the wall valve.

If you have a hose with a switch, then
the Power Canister can be turned ON or
OFF with the switch.

The Power Canister can also be turned
ON and OFF with the switch found on
the upper section of the motor module.

Check each connection for proper seal
and that no air leaks occur. If one is pre-
sent, you may hear a “hissing” sound.

The Power Canister can be mounted in
the basement, utility room, garage or
any other remote area, except where
exposed to weather, and convenient to
an electrical outlet.  The unit requires
ventilation.  

install in a heat

producing or confined area such as the
attic, furnace room, etc.  If desired, the
Power Canister can be exhausted to the
outside.
The top of the Canister should be no
less than 12” (30.5 cm) from the ceiling,

to allow proper

cooling to the motor.  For ease of remov-
ing the dust container, the bottom of the
unit should be at least 18” (46 cm)
above the floor.
Central Vacuum Power Canisters require
a separate/dedicated, 120 Volt, 60Hz.,
20 Amp, 3 wire grounded power circuit,
protected by a 120 Volt, 60 Hz., AC, 20
Amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker
and a 120 Volt, 60 Hz., 20 Amp ground-
ed receptacle.
If a 120 volt, 60 Hz., 20 Amp grounded
receptacle is not available, have a quali-

fied electrician install one for you.  The
receptacle should be no more than 5
feet (152 cm) from the Power Canister.

1)

Determine if the wall you will be 
mounting the Canister to is block, 
concrete, or plaster/drywall.

2)

You will need (2) 1-1/2” (3.8 cm) x 
1/4” (.64 cm) lead plugs and (2) 1-
1/2” (3.8 cm) x 1/4” (.64 cm) lag 
bolts.  Drill a 1/2” (1.3 cm) dia. x 1-
3/4” (4.4 cm) deep hole with a 
masonry drill bit.  Insert a lead plug 
into the hole.  

Mount the bracket (Fig. 2-1) from a 
top hole with a lag bolt.  Mark the 
other upper hole of the bracket.  
Make sure that the bracket is 
straight.  Slide the bracket away 
from the mark and drill a hole direct-
ly over the mark.  
Insert a lead plug into the hole.  
Align the bracket over the hole and 
tightly fasten with a lag bolt. 
Continue to 4).

3)

You will need(2) 1-1/2” (3.8 cm) x 
1/4” (.64 cm) wood screws.  Locate 
a stud and drill a 1/8” (.32 cm) dia. 
x 1-3/4” (4.4 cm) pilot hole.  Mount 
the bracket from a top hole with a 
wood screw.  Make sure that the 
bracket is straight.  Drill a second 
pilot hole using a lower hole on the 
bracket and fasten tightly with the 
other wood screw.

4)

Mount the Power Canister on the 
bracket making sure the bar on the 
back of the machine is settled to the
bottom of the slots on the mounting 
bracket. The wall mounting bracket 
must fit between the two brackets 
on the back of the central vacuum.

10) Plug the power cord in.

11) Assuming that the wall inlet valves 

are connected, the system is now 
ready. 

5)

Route the intake tubing to the 
Canister.

6)

Insert the tubing into the Canister 
inlet.

7)

Tighten the inlet connection with the 
3” (7.6 cm) gear clamp (included). 

8)

When venting the exhaust air, a 
noise reducing exhaust muffler (A) is
included, which is installed inline in 
the piping to vent outside or it can 
be installed to vent indoors as 
shown in Fig. 2-2. Connect to the 
exhaust (right hand side near to of 
unit). Tighten the exhaust connec-
tion with the gear clamp (included). 

9)

Connect the 24 Volt wires coming 
from the wall valves into the 24 Volt 
receptacle on the machine.

Insert the hose into the hose inlet (A) as
shown in Fig. 3-2. The power unit is
turned ON and OFF with the switch
found on the upper section of the motor
module.

To start your Power Canister, simply plug
your hose end into any wall inlet valve.
Both types of wall valves (Standard (A) -
Corded Hose; Electrified (B) - Cordless
Hose) are shown in Fig 3-1.
