On/off to start and stop the motor
Make sure that the on/off switch (1) is in the OFF position.
Plug the cord (3) into the wall socket.
To start the motor turn the on/off switch (1) to ON.
To stop the motor turn the on/off switch (1) to OFF.
Never start the machine if it is faulty or if foam or liquid comes

To pick up water
1 If the machine has been used for dry pick-up, remove the
dry pick-up filter (A) and re-install the float (B) (See figure B).
2 Add a defoamer chemical when picking up soapy water.
To add defoamer, first turn the on/off switch (1) to OFF.
Tilt-up the motor head (2), pour the defoamer chemical
into the waste container (6). See the manufacturer's
recommendations for the proper amount. Tilt-back the
motor-head (2), and turn the on/off switch (1) to ON. Add
defoamer each time the tank is emptied.
3 Tilt down the motor head (2). Make sure that the on/off
switch (1) is in the OFF position, then plug the cord (3) into
a wall outlet.
4 Turn the on/off switch (1) to ON.
5 The motor-head (2) has an automatic float shut-off to
block the vacuum system when the tank is full. You can
tell when the float closes by the sudden change in the
sound of the vacuum motor. When the float closes, the
tank must be emptied. The machine will not pick-up water
with the float closed.
NOTE: Never try to open the motor head when the motor is
running.
To pick up dust and dirt
1 If the machine has been used for wet pick-up, tilt-up the
motor head (2) and hook it to the handle (8) with bracket
(10) (See figure A), empty the waste container (6), rinse it
out and dry it completely and install the dry pick-up filter
(See figure B). To install the dry pick-up filter, first pull the
float (B) (Figure B) off of the motor-head (2). The float (B) is
held in place by rubber retainers and can be pulled off
and pushed back on easily. Push the dry pick-up filter (A)
onto the vacuum motor housing as shown in Figure B (the
filter fits snugly over the vacuum motor housing, friction
fit).
NOTE: Do not use the machine for dry pick-up without the
optional dry pick-up filter (A) (Figure B) in place.
