WARNING
To avoid fire or explosion, do not operate this vac in
areas with flammable gases or flammable vapors such
as lighter fluid, cleaners, oil-base paints, gasoline,
alcohol or explosive dust such as coal, magnesium,
grain or gun powder in the air. Do not vacuum
explosive dust, flammable or combustible liquids or
hot ashes. Do not use this vac as a sprayer for any
flammable or combustible liquid. To avoid health
hazards from vapors or dusts, do not vacuum toxic
materials. To avoid electrical shock do not expose to
rain. Store vac indoors. Unplug power cord before
changing or cleaning filter or emptying the dust drum.
Vacuuming Dry Materials
1. The filter must 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 sawdust from
drywall type material it willbe necessary for you to empty the
drum and clean the filter at more frequent intervals to
maintain peak vae 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.
3. Ifyour filter is wet but you need to use the vac to pick up dry
material, you can quickly dry the filter by running the vac
without hose attached for 10 minutes. The clean air rushing
through the vac will dry the filter enough for dry pick up.
Emptying Dust Drum
1.To remove lid to empty contents of drum, simply pull flexible
locking tabs on beth sides of the drum to release from the lip
of the drum. It may be easier to do by pressing down on the
handles with the bottom part of the palm of your hand while
pulling outward on the flexible locking tabs with your fingers.
2. While holding the tabs back, lift the top assembly up and
away from the drum.
3. Lay top assembly upside down on a clean area while
emptying drum or changing filter.
The hose lock is designed to make storage of your vac more
convenient. Simply wrap hose around power head, and attach
as illustrated. Larger opening should be toward open end of
hose for easy release.
NOTE: Hose lock not provided on all models.

Vacuuming Liquids
1. When the liquid in the drum reaches a predetermined level,
a float mechanism will rise automatically to cut off airflow.
When this happens, turn off the vac, unplug the power cord,
and empty the drum.
2. After using the vac to pick up liquids, the filter must be dried
to avoid possible mildew and damage to the filter.
3. When picking up small amounts of liquid the filter may be left
in place.
4. When picking up large amounts of liquid we recommend that
the filter be removed. If the filter is not removed, it will
become saturated and misting may appear in the blowing
port.
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the vac do not run
motor with float in raised position.
NOTE: You will know that the float has risen because vac
airflow ceases and the motor noise will become higher in
pitch-due to increase in the motor speed.
Draining the Drum
I WARNING: To avoid injury from accidental starting, I
unplug power cord before emptying the drum.
1.The vac comes equipped with a drain for easy emptying of
liquids. Simply unscrew the drain cap and lilt the opposite
side slightly to empty the drum.
2. Another option is to remove the top section of the vac, as
described in assembly section, and dispose of the contents
into a proper waste disposal container.
I
WARNING: To avoid back injury or falls, do not lift a I
vac heavy with liquid or debris. Scoop enough
I
contents out to make the vac light enough to lift
comfortably.
Cord Wrap
1.When vacuuming is complete, unplug the cordand wrap it
around the motorcover.

Moving the Vac
1.Should it become necessary to pick the vac up to move it,
DO NOT pick the vac up by the lid handles. To avoid
dropping the vac due to latches releasing or possible part
breakage, pick the vac up by the lip of the dust drum.
