locking-nut. FIGURE 29. Do not over-tighten. Caution
should be used when using as a blower due to the
powerful force of air when using certain attachments.
NOTE: For maximum performance, when vacuuming,
remove blower port cover.

EMPTYING
LIQUID
WASTE FROM
THE TANK
50. To empty tank, turn unit off and remove plug from
the wall receptacle. To empty liquid into floor drain the
vacuum is equipped with easy flow drain. Twist drain
cap until liquid starts to flow. Pull drain out keeping
opening at the bottom. The further you pull out the
faster the liquid will flow. After the tank is empty, return
the drain cap to its original position. To continue use,
plug the cord into the wall receptacle and turn the unit
on. Use side carry handles for lifting vac when draining

tank into drains that are located above floor level.
AUTOMATIC SUCTION
SHUT OFF
51. The vacuum is equipped with an automatic suction
shut-off that operates when picking up liquids. As the
level of the liquid rises in the tank, 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
unit off immediately. Failure to turn unit off 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 as outlined in the previous
section.
NOTE: IF ACCIDENTALLY TIPPED OVER, THE
VACUUM COULD LOSE SUCTION. IF THIS OCCURS,
TURN UNIT OFF AND PLACE VAC IN UPRIGHT
POSITION. THIS WILL ALLOW THE FLOAT TO RETURN
TO ITS NORMAL POSITION, AND YOU WILL BE ABLE
TO CONTINUE OPERATION.

LUBRICATION

52. No lubrication is necessary as the motor is equipped
with lifetime lubricated bearings.
