applications:
 The wide nozzle with squeegee is used to vacuum
large, flat, dry, or wet surfaces.

DRY VACUUMING

WARNING:
als such as hot coals, cigarette butts, matches,
burning or smoking ashes, etc.
Vacuum only items small enough to fit through the hose or
the attachment. When vacuuming, make sure that the dry
use filter stays in place. The performance of the canister
vac will decrease with a full collection container. Upon
emptying the collection container, check to see if the dry
use filter needs replacing.
NOTE: The canister vac is shipped ready for dry use
vacuuming. To equip the canister vac for wet use, see
Switching Filters in the MAINTENANCE section of this
manual.

WET VACUUMING

The canister vac can be used to vacuum small amounts
of liquid. However, use caution when vacuuming larger
amounts of liquid, as this could cause possible problems.
When wet or dry vacuuming, make sure the drain plug is
firmly in place.
When wet vacuuming, be aware that your canister vac
is equipped with a check ball inside the filter unit hous-
ing. This check ball is specially designed to work with
wet vacuuming applications to shut the suction off when
the collection container reaches full capacity. When the
suction shuts off due to a full collection container, turn the
canister vac OFF and empty the collection container as
shown in MAINTENANCE.

merged or doused in liquid, which could cause
shock, vacuum failure, or personal injury.

fires, fireplaces, hot ashes, barbecue pits, etc.,
which may cause fire to spread.
At all times, the canister vac blows air through the blower
port as part of the exhaust system. However, you can use
the canister vac as a blower by attaching the wand to the
blower port.
 Remove the battery pack from the canister vac.
 Remove the hose from the tank if attached.
 Remove the detachable tool storage belt.
 Remove the motor unit from the collection container
assembly by lifting the latches simultaneously.
 Remove the wand from the hose if attached.
 To attach the wand, push larger end of wand into the
opening of the blower port. For wider air flow, attach
the car nozzle to the end of the wand.
 To remove the wand, pull wand from opening in blower
port.
To keep from scattering debris, blow around the outer
edges of a debris pile. Never blow directly into the center
of a pile.
Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing. In
dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water is
available.
Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly
washed cars, and blow debris safely away.
After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP! Dis-
pose of debris properly.
When vacuuming liquid,
Never use blower near
