igniting of vapors or dust due to the arcing of
the motor brushes do not operate this vac in
areas with flammable vapors such as lighter
fluid, cleaners, oiFbase 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

expose to rain, Store vac indoors. Unplug
power cord before changing or cleaning filter
or emptying the dust drum.
Vacuuming Dry Materials
t. The Filter must be in correct position at all times
to avoid leaks and possible damage to vac.
2. When using your vac zopick up verytine sawdust
or dust from drywall type material it will be
necessary for you to empty the drum and clean
the filter at more frequent intervals to maintain
peak suction at the end of the hose.
3. A dry filter is necessary to pick up dry material. If
you do not dry it, dust particles such as sawdust
may collect on the filter due to the dampness.
This may restrict air flow causing the performance
indicator to drop out of sight (page 5). You may
run the vac to dry the filter faster.
4, tf your filter is wet but you need to pick up dry
material you can quickly dry the filter by letting
the vac run for about ten minutes before you use it
to pick up the dry material. The clean air rushing
through the vac will dry the filter enough for dry
use after about 10 minutes of running time.
Vacuuming Liquids
1. When the liquid in thedrum reaches a predetermined
level, the vac which is equipped with a float mecha-
nism which will rise automatically to cut off airflow.
When the float has risen, turn off the vac, unplug the
power cord, and empty the drum.

.
.
After using the vac to pickup liquids, the filter must be
dried to avoid possible mildew and damage to the
filter.
When picking up small amounts of liquid the filter may
be left in place.
When picking up large amounts of liquid we recom-
mend that the filter be removed. If the filter is not
removed, it wiIKbecome saturated and misting may
appear in the exhaust air from the handles.
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the vac do not run
motor w_th float in up position.
NOTE: You will know that the float has risen because
vac airflow ceases and the motor noise wilt become
higher in pitch - due to increase in the motor speed.
Draining the Drum

1. Your vac has a drain for easy emptying of liquids

empty the drum of liquid.
