ASSEMBLY
WARNING
To reduce the risk of
injury, always remove
the battery pack before removing the tank.
1
CAUTION
Keep filter clean. Efficiency
of the vacuum is largely
dependent on the filter. A dirty filter will reduce
the air flow and overall efficiency of the system.
2 Remove from tank and tap clean.

charger specified for
the battery. For specific charging instructions,
read the operator's manual supplied with your

Pick-Up/Blower
The vacuum can be used for debris pick-up or as a
blower, depending on the port used.
1. For the debris pick-up, insert the large end of the
hose into the intake port of the motor housing,
lining up the tabs on the hose with the notches in
the port. Twist to secure and form a tight fit.
2. To use as a blower, insert the large end of hose
into the blower port of the motor housing, lining
up the tabs on the hose with the notches in the
port. Twist to secure and form a tight fit.

OPERATION
WARNING
To reduce the risk of
injury, always wear
proper eye protection marked to comply with
ANSI Z87.1.
When working in dusty situations, wear appro-
priate respiratory protection or use an OSHA
compliant dust extraction solution.
To reduce the risk of fire and injury, do not use
to pick up flammable or combustible materials.
Empty tank before use.
Before use, ensure the filter and float cage are
properly installed. Remove filter before all wet
pick-up operations.
Fuel Gauge
To determine the amount of charge left in the battery,
turn the tool ON. The Fuel Gauge will light up for 2-3
seconds. When less than 10% of charge is left, 1 light
on the fuel gauge will flash 4 times.
To signal the end of charge, 1 light on the fuel gauge
will flash 8 times and the tool will not run. Charge
the battery pack.
If the battery becomes too hot, the fuel gauge lights
will flash in an alternating pattern and the tool will not
run. Allow the battery to cool down.
Starting and Stopping Vacuum
To turn the vacuum on low, push the switch to the
Speed One (I) position.
To turn the vacuum on high, push the switch to the
Speed Two (II) position.
To turn off the vacuum, push the switch to the OFF
(O) position.
CAUTION: If the float is clean, moves freely, and
the suction does not shut off when the tank is filled,
contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for repairs.
A malfunctioning tool can cause personal injury or
property damage.
Wet Pick-Up Operation
For wet pick-up operation, it is recommended to use
the foam filter (Single pack, Cat. No. 49-90-2015).
1. Remove ALL dirt and debris found in the tank.
2. Remove the filter. Ensure that the float cage
remains in place.
Float cage
3. A float cage shuts off suction when the tank is full.
Be sure that the float is clean and moves freely in
the float cage to ensure that the float valve works.
4. Turn on the vacuum and begin pick-up.
5. Turn off the vacuum immediately upon completing
a wet pick-up job or when tank is full and ready
to be emptied.
NOTE: If suction shuts off, turn off the vacuum
immediately and empty the tank.
6. Remove the battery pack.
7. Raise the hose to drain any excess liquid into
the tank.
8. Remove motor housing and pour liquid waste into
a suitable drain.
9. Clean the interior of the tank and pick-up acces-
sories periodically, more often when used to pick
up wet, sticky materials. Use warm, soapy water.
Automatic Suction Shut-Off
When picking up liquids, an internal float rises until it
seats itself against a seal at the intake of the motor,
shutting off suction. When this happens, the motor
will develop a higher than normal pitch noise and the
suction is drastically reduced. If this occurs, turn off
the vacuum immediately.
CAUTION: Failure to turn off unit after float rises
and shuts off suction will result in extensive damage
to the motor.
To continue use, empty the liquid waste from the tank.
NOTE: If the vacuum is accidentally tipped over, it
could lose suction. Turn off the vacuum and return
it to an upright position. The float will return to its
normal position.
Fine Dust Collection
Use the fleece dust bag to collect fine dust particles.
1. Slide the dust bag holder on top of the fleece dust
bag opening.
2. Hang the dust bag on the fine dust collection
mounting plate inside the tank.
