This cleaner is equipped with an automatic shut-off that
operates when picking up liquids.
As
the level of the liquid
rises, 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. To continue use, empty the liquid waste from the tank
as outlined in the previous paragraph.
NOTE
IF
ACCIDENTLY TIPPED
OVER,
THE VACUUM COULD
LOSE ITS SUCTION.
IF
THIS OCCURS, PLACE VAC IN
UPRIGHT POSITION AND TURN SWITCH OFF. THIS WILL ALLOW THE FLOAT TO RETURN TO
ITS NORMAL POSITION, AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CONTINUE OPERATION.
Using
Your Master Nozzle
Your wet/dry vacuum comes equipped with a revolution in vacuum
cleaners. ONE NOZZLE
DOES
IT ALL!
The brush and squeegee inserts can be inserted in the nozzle by
aligning the insert with the opening in the nozzle and apply pressure
until the insert is firmly in place
Before storing your cleaner, the tank should be emptied and cleaned. The power cord can be
wound around the housing of the unit for convenience, Accessories may be stored in
the
tank
while those that cannot be stored in the tank should be kept in the same area as the cleaner
so
they can be readily available. The cleaner should be stored indoors.
