OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WET PICK-UP
1. Remove reusable filter and replace it with foam filter when you do wet pickups.
2. This wet/dry vac is equipped with a float mechanism which will rise automatically to cut off the
airflow when the liquid in the tank reaches a predetermined level. When this happens, turn off vac,
unplug the power cord, and empty the dust tank. You will know that the float has shut the airflow off
because the suction ceases and the motor noise becomes higher in pitch due to increased motor
speed. The liquid capacity may vary with the rate of pickup.
IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of damage to the vac, do not run motor with float in raised position.
EMPTY THE TANK
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of injury from accidental starting, unplug power cord before emptying the dust tank.
1. Remove the power head assembly of the wet/dry vac by pulling outward on the lid clips located
on each side of the vac. Lift off the power head assembly.
2. Dump the tank contents into the proper waste disposal container.
