Vacuuming Liquids

1. When picking up small amounts of liquid
the filter may be left in place.
2. When picking up large amounts of liquid
we recommend that the filter be removed.
If the filter is not removed, it will become
saturated and misting may appear in the
exhaust.
3. When the liquid in the drum reaches a
predetermined level, the float mechanism
will rise automatically to cut off air-flow.
You will know that the float has risen
because Vac airflow ceases and the
motor noise will become higher in pitch,
due to increased motor speed. When this
happens, turn off the Vac, unplug the
power cord, and empty the drum.
4. After using the Vac to pick up liquids,
the filter must be dried to avoid possible
mildew and damage to the filter.
IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of damage
to the Vac, do not run motor with float in
raised position.
WARNING: Do not operate without
filter cage and float, as they prevent
liquid from entering the impeller and
damaging the motor.

emptying the Drum

WARNING: To reduce the risk of
injury from accidental starting, unplug
power cord before emptying the drum.
1. The Vac comes equipped with a drain for
easy emptying of liquids. Simply
unscrew the drain cap and lift the
opposite side slightly to empty the drum.
2. Another option is to remove the lid. Pull
the flexible latches outward on each side
of the lid to release from the drum.
3. While holding the latches out, lift the top
assembly up and away from the drum.
4. Lay top assembly upside down on a
clean area while emptying drum or
changing Filter.
5. Dump the drum contents into the proper
waste disposal container.
