OPERATION

BEFORE EACH USE

(1) This vacuum cleaner is designed for wet only pickup. Please avoid picking up dry materials.

(2) Make sure the tank is clean, and that there is no debris in the tank that can impede the action of the pump fl oat mechanism.

(3) Make sure the mesh fi lter bag is installed on the inlet inside the canister. The bag should be empty, and the slide-on clamp should be installed on the bottom of the bag. Position the thin, fl at plastic strip that is attached to the mesh fi lter bag, over the rim of the canister. This strip helps retain the bag when it fi lls with debris.

(4) Make sure that the fl oat mounted on the underside of the motor head is able to move freely, and that the fi lter on the outside of the fl oat housing is clean and properly in place. This fi lter will protect the vacuum motor from debris.

(5) Attach the motor head to the canister using the two metal clamps mounted on the side of canister. The pump cord exits the rear of the canister, near the top. Plug this cord into the electrical outlet on the top rear of the motor head.

(6) Attach the long discharge hose to the brass fi tting on the rear of the canister. The fi tting is a ball coupling type. Pull the collar of the female brass fi tting toward the canister before inserting the hose fi tting.

TO OPERATE

(1) The vacuum cleaner motor is controlled by the switch on the top left side of the motor head. The pump out feature is controlled by the switch on the top right side of the motor head. If using the pump out feature, the pump switch can be left on.

(2) The pump is equipped with a fl oat switch, which will automatically start the pump when the water level in the canister rises. The fl oat switch will automatically stop the pump when the liquid level drops.

(3) If the vacuum is being used without the long discharge hose, leave the pump switch off . The liquid in the canister can also be emptied using the short, black, corrugated hose attached to the rear of the canister.

Be sure the end of the hose is securely attached to the stationary drain hose plug after use.

(4) Check the mesh bag frequently for debris. To empty, remove the bag from the canister and slide off the retaining clip on the bottom of the bag. Reinstall the mesh fi lter bag before continuing to use the vacuum.

Do not operate the vacuum without the mesh fi lter bag in place

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - GROUNDING

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having equipment grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

IMPROPER CONNECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT

GROUNDING CONDUCTOR CAN RESULT IN A RISK

OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED

ELECTRICIAN OR SERVICE PERSON IF YOU ARE IN

DOUBT AS TO WEATHER THE OUTLET IS PROPERLY

GROUNDED.

Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it will not fi t the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualifi ed electrician.

This appliance is for use on a nominal 120 - Volt circuit, and has a grounded plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A below. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in sketches B and C may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded receptacle is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a qualifi ed electrician. The green colored ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.

NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the

Canadian Electrical Code.
