OPERATION
(Continued)
1. Familiarize yourself with the accessories included with the Vacuum. Each
accessory may be used in various ways for vacuuming and blowing debris. Here is 
a list of the accessories and their uses (Figure F).
Crevice Tool - Used to pick up debris in
hard to reach locations.
Dusting Brush - Used for detailed cleaning 
in small spaces.
Claw Nozzle - Used to vacuum furniture, 
fabric, and upholstery.
Hose - Provides transfer of vacuum or 
blowing capability to work site. 
Vacuuming Dry Materials
1. The filter must be in correct position
at all times to avoid leaks and possible 
damage to Vacuum.
2. When using your Vacuum to pick up
very fine dust, it will be necessary for you to empty the drum and clean the 
filter at more frequent intervals to maintain peak Vacuum performance.
NOTE: A dry filter is necessary to pick up dry material. If you use your Vacuum 
to pick up dust when the filter is wet, the filter will clog quickly and will be very 
difficult to clean.
Vacuuming Liquids
1. When picking up small amounts of liquid the filter may be left in place.
2. When picking up large amounts of liquid we recommend that the filter be 
removed. If the filter is not removed, it will become saturated and misting may 
appear in the exhaust.
3. When the liquid in the drum reaches a predetermined level, the float mechanism
will rise automatically to cut off airflow. You will know that the float has risen 
because Vacuum airflow ceases and the motor noise will become higher in pitch, 
due to increased motor speed. When this happens, turn off the Vacuum and 
empty the drum. 
 WARNING - Do not remove the filter cage and float. The float prevents water from 
entering the impeller and damaging the motor. The cage prevents fingers from 
touching the moving impeller.
4. After using the Vacuum to pick up liquids, the filter must be dried to avoid 
possible mildew and damage to the filter.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the Vacuum, do not run motor with float in raised 
position.
