Vacuuming Liquids; Emptying The Dust Drum - RIDGID HD09180 Mode D'emploi

OPERATION

Vacuuming Liquids

1. Vacuuming up small amounts of liquid
(less than 2" (5 cm) collected in Dust
Drum) does not require Filter removal.
2. When larger amounts of liquid are to
be picked up, remove the Filter, but
not the Filter Cage or Float, to prevent
the Filter from becoming saturated with
liquid. If the Filter becomes saturated,
you may see "mist" coming from the
Blowing Port.
3. For pick up of large amounts of liquid or
liquid that may contain debris, use of a
Wet Cartridge Filter is recommended.
Wet Filter VF7000 is available where
you purchased your Vac.
4. When the Drum is "full" the Float will
rise and cut off airflow. The motor
sound will rise in pitch and its speed will
increase indicating the Drum is "full".
Turn OFF the Vac and remove Battery
Pack(s) before emptying the Drum.
WARNING:
Do not operate without filter cage
and float, as they prevent liquid from
entering the impeller and damaging
the motor.
5. Following use of Vac for wet pick up,
allow Filter to dry completely to avoid
mildew and Filter damage.
IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of
damage to the Vac, do not run Motor with
Float in raised position.
