No lubrication is necessary as the motor is equipped with lifetime lubricated bearings.
STORAGE
Before storing your vacuum 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 caster dolly tool holder on rear of unit. The cleaner should be stored indoors.
NOTE: IF ACCIDENTALLY TIPPED OVER, THE VACUUM COULD LOSE 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.
AUTOMATIC SUCTION SHUT-OFF
The 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.
