Operation (continued)
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.
Allow filter to dry out before storing.

Vacuuming Liquids

1. When picking up small amounts of
liquid the filter may be left in place.
2. 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 exhaust.
3. When the liquid in the drum reaches a
predetermined level, the float
mechanism will rise automatically to cut
off air-flow. When this happens, turn off
the Vac, unplug the power cord, and
empty the drum. You will know that the
float has risen because Vac airflow
ceases and the motor noise will become
higher in pitch, due to increased motor
speed.
4. After using the Vac to pick up liquids, the
filter must be dried to reduce the risk of
possible mildew and damage to the filter.
IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of
damage to the Vac do not run motor with
float in raised position.
WARNING:
without filter cage and float, as they
prevent liquid from entering the
impeller and damaging the motor.
Do not operate

Emptying the Drum

1. The Vac comes equipped with a drain
for easy emptying of liquids. Simply
unscrew the drain cap and lift the
opposite side slightly to empty the
drum.
2. Another option is to remove the
powerhead assembly and dump the
drum contents into the proper waste
disposal container.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
back injury or falls, do not lift a Vac
heavy with liquid or debris. Scoop
or drain enough contents out to
make the Vac light enough to lift
comfortably.

Moving the Wet/Dry Vac

Should it become necessary to pick the
Vac up to move it, the handle on the
sides of the dust drum are used to lift. To
maneuver the Vac, the metal handle in
the rear of the unit should be used.

Blowing Feature

Your Vac features a blowing port. It can
blow sawdust and other debris. Follow the
steps below to use your Vac as a blower.
1. Locate blowing port of your Vac.
WARNING: Always wear safety
eyewear complying with ANSI Z87.1
(or in Canada, CSA Z94.3) before
using as a Blower.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
injury to bystanders, keep them
clear of blowing debris.
CAUTION: Wear a dust mask if
blowing creates dust which might
be inhaled.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of
hearing damage, wear ear protectors
when using the Vac/Blower for
extended time or in a noisy area.
