Meyer VANTAGE-VAC - Start-Up & Operation

6
Fuel for this machine is highly ammable and explosive. Do not overll the fuel
tank. Allow room for expansion of the fuel. Fill the tank away from the engine and
avoid spills. The fuel tank must be in contact with the ground before and during lling. Do not let the
fuel line come in contact with the exhaust system. Failure to follow these precauons could lead to a
re and serious injury or death. The Vantage-Vac engine has an aached fuel tank, allow the engine to
cool before relling.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas that could kill you in
minutes. You CANNOT see it, smell it, or taste it. Even if you do not smell exhaust
fumes, you could sll be exposed to carbon monoxide gas. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while
using this product, shut it o and get to fresh air immediately. Seek medical aenon immediately.
You may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
The surfaces of the engine and exhaust can be extremely hot. Do not touch, allow
to cool before servicing.
Rotang fan blades inside can crush or cut. The vacuum has a strong sucon at the
inlet. At all mes keep hands, clothing, etc., away from the inlet of your vacuum.
Pressurized air and material leaving the discharge can cause serious injury or death
if personnel are struck. Stay clear of outlet and surrounding area while operang.
Never operate without collecon device securely connected to the discharge.
1. Place your equipment on a level surface. Posion it so the collecon bag will not be blown by the
wind and come in contact with the engine exhaust system. Prevent the vacuum from moving. If
your model is equipped with a wheel locking device, engage it.
NOTE: The Vantage-Vac and the Versa-Vac require that either a hose or the debris guard is aached
to the discharge (refer to gure A). The vacuum will not start or connue to run without a hose or the
debris guard aached. The Veloci-Vac has a discharge “Y” (refer to gure B) that must be mounted
before any other aachment. The “Y” locks into place with a clockwise twist.
