Float cage
3. Turn on the vacuum and begin pick-up.
4. Turn o the vacuum immediately upon completing
a wet pick-up job or when tank is full and ready to
be emptied.
NOTE: If suction shuts o, turn o the vacuum im-
mediately and empty the tank.
5. Remove the battery pack.
6. Raise the hose to drain any excess liquid into the
tank.
7. Remove motor housing and pour liquid waste into
a suitable drain.
8. Clean the interior of the tank and pick-up acces-
sories periodically, more often when used to pick
up wet, sticky materials. Use warm, soapy water.
Automatic Suction Shut-O
When picking up liquids, an internal oat rises until it
seats itself against a seal at the intake of the motor,
shutting o suction. When this happens, the motor
will develop a higher than normal pitch noise and the
suction is drastically reduced. If this occurs, turn o
the vacuum immediately. Failure to turn o unit after
oat rises and shuts o suction will result in extensive
damage to the motor. To continue use, empty the
liquid waste from the tank.
NOTE: If the vacuum is accidentally tipped over, it
could lose suction. Turn o the vacuum and return
it to an upright position. The oat will return to its
normal position.
Storage
Before storing your vacuum, empty and clean the
tank, lter, and accessories. Remove the battery
pack.
