36. Shake excess debris off of the foam sleeve with a
rapid up and down movement.
37. Hold foam sleeve under running water for a minute
or two, rinsing from the inside of the filter. A water wash
is not always required, depending on the condition of
the foam sleeve.
38. Check the filter for tears. If any are found, replace
with a new filter.
BLOWER
FEATURE
39. Your vacuum can be used as
a powerful blower. To use your
unit as a blower, clear hose of any
obstruction. Insert machine hose
end into blower port on rear of
unit. FIGURE 18. Twist slightly
FIGURE 18
to tighten the connection. Caution
should be used when using as a
blower due to the powerful force of air when using
certain attachments.
WARNING!
ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION TO PREVENT
ROCKS OR DEBRIS FROM BEING BLOWN OR
RICOCHETING INTO THE EYES OR FACE WHICH
CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY.
EMPTYING
LIQUID
WASTE FROM
THE TANK
40. Your wet/dry vacuum can be emptied of liquid waste
by removing the drain cap. To empty, turn unit off and
remove plug from the wall receptacle. Remove the drain
cap and deposit the liquid waste contents in a suitable
drain. After the tank is empty, return the drain cap to
its original position. To continue use, plug the cord into
the wall receptacle and turn the unit on. Use side carry
handles for lifting vac when draining tank into drains
that are located above floor level.

AUTOMATIC SUCTION
SHUT OFF
41. The vacuum is equipped with an automatic suction
shut-off that operates when picking up liquids. As the
level of the liquid rises in the tank, an internal float rises
until it seats itself against a seal at the intake of the
motor, shutting off suction. When this happens, the
motor will develop a higher than normal pitch noise and
the suction is drastically reduced. If this occurs, turn
unit off immediately. Failure to turn unit off after float
rises and shuts off suction will result in extensive
damage to the motor. To continue use, empty the liquid
waste from the tank as outlined in the previous
section.
NOTE: IF ACCIDENTALLY TIPPED OVER, THE
VACUUM COULD LOSE SUCTION. IF THIS OCCURS,
TURN UNIT OFF AND PLACE VAC IN UPRIGHT
POSITION. THIS WILL ALLOW THE FLOAT TO RETURN
TO ITS NORMAL POSITION, AND YOU WILL BE ABLE
TO CONTINUE OPERATION.
42. No lubrication is necessary as the motor is equipped
with lifetime lubricated bearings.

44. Accessories may be stored in the tool holder. The

LUBRICATION
STORAGE
43. Before storing your vacuum
