The ToolPRO 35L Wet & Dry Workshop Vacuum Cleaner is a versatile cleaning appliance designed for both wet and dry vacuuming applications in a workshop environment. It is manufactured and packaged for SRGS PTY LTD, ABN 23 113 230 050, located at 6 Coulthards Avenue, Strathpine QLD 4500, Australia.
Function Description:
This vacuum cleaner is primarily used for cleaning up dust, dirt, and liquids. It features a 35-liter tank capacity, making it suitable for handling substantial amounts of debris. The appliance offers three main operational modes: normal vacuuming (wet or dry), automatic mode for power tool operation, and a blowing function.
For dry vacuuming, the vacuum utilizes a HEPA filter and can optionally use a paper dust bag for collecting fine dust. For wet vacuuming, a foam filter is used to prevent liquids from reaching the motor. The automatic mode is a key feature for workshop use, allowing the vacuum to synchronize with an electric power tool. When a power tool (with an AC power requirement of 80-1200 Watts) is plugged into the vacuum's AC outlet socket and switched on, the vacuum motor automatically turns on. Conversely, when the power tool is switched off, the vacuum also turns off. This functionality is particularly useful for dust extraction from electric power tools, ensuring a cleaner working environment. The blowing function allows the vacuum to be used as a blower, useful for clearing debris from surfaces or hard-to-reach areas.

Usage Features:
The vacuum cleaner is designed for ease of assembly and operation.
- Assembly:
- The appliance head can be easily removed from the tank by unlocking two side locking handles.
- Four castor wheels are fitted to the base by inserting mounting pins into designated holes, providing mobility.
- A carry handle is secured to the appliance head with screws for convenient transport.
- Filters are interchangeable: a HEPA filter for dry vacuuming and a foam filter for wet vacuuming. The foam filter slips over the filter basket.
- The flexible hose connects to either the suction outlet or the blower outlet by aligning an arrow and locking pin, then rotating to secure.
- Extension tubes can be added to the flexible hose to extend reach.
- Floor tools or crevice tools can be attached to the end of the last extension tube for specific cleaning tasks.
- Operation:
- ON/OFF Switch: The vacuum has a three-position switch:
- Position "0": OFF (all operations shut off).
- Position "I": For normal vacuuming operation (wet or dry).
- Position "II": Automatic Mode for Power Tool operation. In this mode, the vacuum motor turns ON only when a power tool plugged into the AC outlet socket is switched ON, and turns OFF when the power tool is switched OFF.
- Dry Vacuuming: Requires the HEPA filter and optionally a paper dust bag. The tank must be dry and clean.
- Wet Vacuuming: Requires the foam filter. The tank must be dry and clean. The floating safety valve will close when the maximum tank level is reached, indicating it's time to empty the tank. The tank can be drained via a drain screw.
- Blowing Function: Requires the tank to be empty and completely dry. The flexible hose is connected to the blower outlet. Additional extension tubes can be used. Users are advised to wear a dust mask and eye protection and keep bystanders clear.
- Safety Warnings: Users are warned against using the foam filter for dry vacuuming, the HEPA filter for wet vacuuming, and never using the vacuum without a filter. Regular checks for blockages in the HEPA filter are recommended to prevent motor overheating.
Maintenance Features:
Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and safe operation of the vacuum cleaner.
- General Cleaning: Keep safety devices, air vents, motor housing, and appliance head free of dirt and dust. Clean and dry the appliance immediately after each use.
- Appliance Head: Clean with a damp cloth and soap, then wipe dry. Do not submerge in water or allow water to enter. Avoid cleaning agents or solvents that may damage plastic parts.
- Tank: Clean with a damp cloth and soap or rinse under running water, depending on the dirt level. Wipe down and dry before storing.
- HEPA Filter: Clean regularly by patting and brushing with a fine or hand brush. Do not submerge in water or use a damp cloth.
- Foam Filter: Clean with a little soap under running water. Allow to completely air-dry before reinstalling or storing; do not wring dry.
- Floating Safety Valve: Check often to ensure it moves freely within the filter basket. This can be done by tipping the appliance head with the filter basket facing upwards.
- General Maintenance Checks (Before each use):
- Inspect for loose hardware or screws.
- Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts.
- Examine for damaged or electrical wiring.
- Ensure filters are securely fitted.
- Check for a damaged or cracked tank.
