Vacuuming Liquids

1.When vacuuming liquids the filter should be left in place at all times.

2.Misting may appear from the blowing port, this is normal.

3.This Wet/Dry Vac is equipped with a float mechanism which will rise auto-

matically to cut off the air flow when the liquid in the drum reaches a predeter- mined level. When this happens, turn off the vac, unplug the power cord, and empty the drum. You will know that the float has risen because airflow ceases and the motor noise becomes higher in pitch, due to increased motor speed. The liquid capacity may vary with rate of pickup.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the vac do not run motor with float in raised

position.

4.After using the vac to pick up liquids, the filter must be dried to avoid possi- ble mildew and damage to the filter.
