SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed including the

following:

WARNING:TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY:

• Do not run vac unattended.

• Do not vacuum, or use this Wet/Dry Vac near flammable liquids, gases, or explosive vapors like gasoline

or other fuels, lighter fluids, cleaners, oil-based paints, natural gas, hydrogen, or explosive dusts like coal

dust, magnesium dust, grain dust, or gun power. Sparks inside the motor can ignite flammable vapors or

dust.

• Do not vacuum anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.

• Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

• Do not expose to rain. Store indoors.

• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

• Do not use with damaged cord, plug or other parts.

• If appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water,

return it to a service center.

• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or

corners.

• Do not run Wet/Dry Vac over cord.

• Do not handle plug or the Wet/Dry Vac with wet hands.

• To reduce the risk of health hazards from vapors or dusts, do not vacuum toxic materials.

• Do not use or store near hazardous materials.

• Do not use this Wet/Dry Vac with a torn filter or without the filter installed except when vacuuming liquids

as described in the operation section of this manual.

• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.

• To reduce the risk of injury from accidental starting, unplug power cord before changing or cleaning filter.

• Do not leave Wet/Dry Vac unattended when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before

servicing.

• Turn off Wet/Dry Vac before unplugging.

• Do not put any object into ventilation openings. Do not vacuum with any ventilation openings blocked;

keep free of dust, lint, hair or anything that may reduce air flow.

• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.

• To reduce the risk of falls, use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

When using as blower:

• Direct air discharge only at work area.

• Do not use Wet/Dry Vac as a sprayer.

• Do not direct air at bystanders.

• Keep children away when blowing.

• Use safety goggles.

This Wet/Dry Vac is double-insulated, eliminating the need for a separate grounding system. Use only

identical replacements parts. Read the instructions for Servicing Double-Insulated Wet/Dry Vacs before

servicing. Use this Wet/Dry Vac as described in this manual. Observe the following warnings that appear

on the motor housing of your Wet/Dry Vac.

DOUBLE INSULATED - GROUNDING NOT REQUIRED - WHEN SERVICING USE ONLY

IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK-DO NOT EXPOSE TO RAIN. STORE

INDOORS.

RUN UNATTENDED. DO NOT PICK UP HOT ASHES, COALS, TOXIC, FLAMMABLE OR OTHER

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS, DO NOT USE AROUND EXPLOSIVE LIQUIDS OR VAPORS.

CAUTION:

• Do not vacuum drywall dust or fireplace soot or ash with standard Wet/Dry filter. This is a very fine dust

which will not be captured by the filter and may cause damage to motor. When vacuuming fine dust use a

fine dust filter (sold separately).

WARNING: SERVICING OF DOUBLE-INSULATED WET/DRY VACUUMM

WITH A DOUBLE-INSULATED WET/DRY VACUUM, TWO SYSTEMS OF INSULATION ARE PROVIDED

AND SHOULD BE DONE ONLY BY QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL. REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR

A DOUBLE-INSULATED WET/DRY VACUUM MUST BE IDENTICAL TO THE PARTS THEY REPLACE.

YOUR DOUBLE-INSULATED WET/DRY VAC IS MARKED WITH THE WORDS ‘DOUBLE INSULATED’

AND THE SYMBOL (SQUARE WITHIN A SQUARE) MAY ALSO BE MARKED ON THE

APPLIANCE.

• To reduce the risk of electric shock-unplug before cleaning or servicing.

• DO NOT use without filters in place.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY FROM MOVING PARTS- UNPLUG BEFORE

SERVICING.

When using an extension cord with your Wet/Dry Vac refer to the following table to determine the required

A.W.G. wire size. Before using the cleaner make sure the power cord and extension cord are in good

other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse

the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the

plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and

grounded power supply system.

WARNING: BE SURE TO READ, UNDERSTAND, AND APPLY INFORMATION, ENTITLED ‘SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS’. DO NOT VACUUM IN AREAS WITH FLAMMABLE GASES, VAPORS,

OR EXPLOSIVE DUSTS IN THE AIR. FLAMMABLE GASES OR VAPORS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT

LIMITED TO; LIGHTER FLUID, SOLVENT TYPE CLEANERS, OIL-BASE PAINTS, GASOLINE,

ALCOHOL OR AEROSOL SPRAYS. EXPLOSIVE DUSTS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO;

COAL, MAGNESIUM, GRAIN OR GUN POWDER. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF HEALTH HAZARDS

DRY-VACUUM OPERATION

LIQUID VACUUMING

WARNING: BE SURE TO READ, UNDERSTAND, AND APPLY INFORMATION, ENTITLED ‘SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS’. DO NOT VACUUM IN AREAS WITH FLAMMABLE GASES, VAPORS,

OR EXPLOSIVE DUSTS IN THE AIR. FLAMMABLE GASES OR VAPORS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT

LIMITED TO; LIGHTER FLUID, SOLVENT TYPE CLEANERS, OIL-BASE PAINTS, GASOLINE,

ALCOHOL OR AEROSOL SPRAYS. EXPLOSIVE DUSTS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO;

COAL, MAGNESIUM, GRAIN OR GUN POWDER. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF HEALTH HAZARDS

FROM VAPORS OR DUST, DO NOT VACUUM TOXIC MATERIALS.

WARNING: DO NOT PLUG IN POWER CORD TO POWER OUTLET, MAKE SURE PLUG IS

DISCONNECTED BEFORE ASSEMBLING THE WET/DRY VAC

1. Verify that the power cord is disconnected from the outlet. Verify that the container is clean and free of

dust and dirt. (fig. 1)

2. Remove cartridge filter, then carefully install the foam sleeve filter over the filter cage and place the

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS – WET VACUUMING

3. Fit the desired nozzle to the vacuum hose. (fig. 3)

4. Verify that the switch is in the ‘O’ OFF position before plugging the power cord into the outlet. (fig. 4)

5. Turn the motor on by flipping the switch to the ‘I’ ON position. (fig. 5)

6. After use, empty the container by unscrewing the drain cap. Drain liquids into a suitable receptacle or

drain. Remember to refit the drain cap to the container after draining container. (fig. 6)

IMPORTANT! When vacuuming large quantities of liquids, do not immerse the nozzle completely in the

liquid; leave a gap at the tip of the nozzle opening to allow air inflow. The machine is fitted with a float valve

that stops the suction action when the container reaches its maximum capacity. You will notice an increase

in motor speed. When this happens, turn off the machine, disconnect from power supply, and drain the

liquid into a suitable receptacle or drain. To continue vacuuming, refit the container with the drain cap. After

wet vacuuming, turn the machine off and remove plug from power supply. Empty the container, clean and

dry the inside and outside before storage.

REMEMBER! The foam filter must be removed after wet vacuuming, and a cartridge filter must be

installed before dry vacuuming again.
