WARNING: DO NOT PLUG THE POWER CORD INTO THE POWER OUTLET. MAKE
SURE THE PLUG IS DISCONNECTED BEFORE CHANGING THE FILTERS.
1. Verify that the power cord is disconnected from the outlet. Make sure that the collection tank is

4. Verify that the switch is in the ‘O’ OFF position before plugging the power cord into the power
outlet. Plug the power cord into the outlet (Fig. 4 & 5).

7. After use, empty the collection tank, clean and dry the inside and outside before storage (Fig. 7).
IMPORTANT! When vacuuming large quantities of liquids, do not immerse the nozzle completely
in the liquid; leave a gap at the tip of the nozzle opening to allow air inow. The machine is tted
with a oat valve that stops the suction action when the collection tank reaches its maximum
capacity. You will notice an increase in motor speed. When this happens, turn off the machine,
disconnect from power supply, and drain the liquid into a suitable receptacle or drain. To continue
vacuuming, ret the collection tank with the drain cap. After wet vacuuming, turn the machine
off and remove plug from power supply. Empty the collection tank, clean and dry the inside and
outside before storage.
REMEMBER! The foam wet lter must be removed after wet vacuuming and the cartridge lter
must be installed before dry vacuuming again.
