BLOWING ACCESSORIES - FIG. 12 - 16
WARNING: Always wear eye protection when operating as Blower or Inflator.
CAUTION: Make sure accessories are securely attached before use. When using the accessory
hose for blowing or inflating, hold the hose end securely before turning “ON” and
during use.
Refer to Fig. 12 for two typical arrangements of accessories to carry out either blowing or
inflation. For increased flexibility in blowing it is possible to also fit the tubes to the end of the hose.
Blower: To attach the blowing adapter, open the rear door by pulling on the top recess as shown in Fig. 13.
Insert the blow adapter into the opening as shown in Fig. 14. The blow adaptor should fit snug, with the rib
fitted against the rear wall of the vacuum.
Inflation: For inflation mode use the tapered adaptors supplied which best fits your application. Fit the infla-
tion adapter onto the hose, aligning the tab on the adapter with the hole in the hose adapter as shown in
Fig. 15. Push adaptor in direction of arrow until it “clicks”. To remove, lift the tab up and pull off the
adapter. During inflation control the airflow and pressure by covering the air bypass hole with your thumb
as shown in Fig. 16.
CAUTION: Do not permanently cover the air bypass hole.
CAUTION: NEVER EXCEED RECOMMENDED PRESSURE. The item being inflated may burst
and cause injury. Soft inflatable material items will not have existing pressure
rating. Be careful not to over-inflate.
CAUTION: UNPLUG VACUUM BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE.
CLEANING YOUR VAC
Your Hand Vac is equipped with a clogged filter indicator as shown in Fig. 4. When the dirt bowl is full or
the filters are plugged, the coloured indicator will move so it can be seen in the window on the fill indicator.
When this happens the unit should be shut-off and checked for clogged accessories, a full dirt bowl, and
dirty filters (both bowl filters and exhaust filter). After emptying the bowl or removing the clog the unit can be
turned on and vacuuming continued.
EMPTYING THE DIRT BOWL
Grasp the unit as shown in Fig. 5, with your thumb pushing down on the unlock button as shown and rotate
the dirt bowl down and away from the unit. Empty the dirt bowl Fig. 6.
CLEANING THE TURBO BRUSH
First remove the turbo brush from the unit, hose or extension tubes. Press the button on the front of the brush
and lift the top off. There maybe some hair, dust, lint, etc. on the turbine wheel and or brush. Remove as
much of this as possible. Once cleaned replace the top and snap back in place. (Fig. 4B)
REMOVING THE FILTERS
WARNING: Do not operate vacuum without filters in place.
Your Hand Vac comes equipped with a 2 stage filter in the bowl plus an exhaust filter.
To remove the first stage filter grasp the unit as shown in Fig. 7.
With your other hand grasp the filter and push down on the latch located at the top of the filter. Rotate the
filter down and off the unit.
To remove the 2nd stage filter grasp the filter and remove it as shown in Fig. 8. Tap or shake dust from filter.
Both filters can be cleaned by rinsing under running water. Dry completely before replacing into the unit.
To replace the filters simply reverse the process making sure the 1st stage filter is located in the hook on the
bottom face of the unit before rotating into place as shown by Fig. 9.

Accessories can be stored in the storage bag supplied.

outlet. Do not change the vacuum power cord in any way.
