Operation
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). This plug
will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not change the plug in
any way.
After you plug the power cord into the
outlet, turn the unit on by pushing the
switch from position "O" to position "l".
The symbols used on the switch actuator
are international "On & Off" symbols.

Familiarize yourself with the accessories
included with the Vac. Each accessory
may be used in various ways for
vacuuming and blowing debris. Here is a
list of the accessories and their uses.
Dusting Brush - Use for sweeping up
areas with fine dust or debris. Great for
detailed cleaning.
Crevice Tool - Use to pick up debris in
hard to reach locations.
Utility Nozzle - General purpose nozzle for
most vacuuming applications.
Hose - Provides transfer of vacuum or
blowing capability to work site. Provides
the means of attaching accessories.
Hose includes suction relief valve to
reduce hose pull back when the inlet is
blocked.

Vacuuming Dry Materials

1. The filter must always be in correct
position at all times to avoid leaks and
possible damage to Vac.
2. When using your Vac 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 Vac performance.
NOTE: A dry filter is necessary to pick up
dry material. If you use your Vac to pick
up dust when the filter is wet, the filter will
clog quickly and be very difficult to clean.

Vacuuming Liquids

1. When picking up small amounts of
liquid (2-4 inches of liquid in the bottom
of the drum) the filter may be left in
place.
2. When picking up larger amounts of
liquid (more than 4" of liquid in the
bottom of the drum) we recommend
that the filter be removed. If the filter is
not removed, it will become saturated
and misting may appear in the exhaust.
