BE SURE TO READ, UNDERSTAND, AND APPLY INFORMATION, ENTITLED
'SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS'. DO NOT VACUUM IN AREAS WITH FLAMMABLE
GASES, VAPORS, OR EXPLOSIVE DUSTS IN THE AIR. FLAMMABLE GASES OR VAPORS

DISCONNECTED BEFORE CHANGING AND CLEANING FILTERS.
1. Verify that the power cord is disconnected from the outlet. (fig.1) Make sure that the
container is clean and free from dust and dirt.
2. Remove cloth filter and collection bag, then carefully install the foam sleeve filter over the filter

3. Fit the desired nozzle to the vacuum hose. (fig.3)
4. Verify that the switch is in the 'O' OFF position before plugging the power cord into the outlet.
(fig.4)
5. Turn the motor on by flipping the switch to the 'I' ON position. (fig.5)
6. After use, empty the container by unscrewing the drain cap and drain liquids into suitable
receptacle or drain. (fig.6) Remember to refit the drain cap to the container after draining
container.
IMPORTANT!
When vacuuming large quantities of liquids, do not immerse the nozzle
completely in the liquid; leave a gap at the tip of the nozzle opening to allow air inflow. The
machine is fitted with a float valve that stops the suction action when the container reaches its
maximum capacity. You will notice an increase in motor speed. When this happens, turn off the
machine, disconnect from power supply, and drain the liquid into a suitable receptacle or drain.
To continue vacuuming, refit the container with the drain cap. After wet vacuuming, turn the
machine off and remove plug from power supply. Empty the container, clean and dry the inside
and outside before storage.
REMEMBER!
The foam filter must be removed after wet vacuuming, and a cloth filter must be
installed before dry vacuuming again.
