Float/Cage Assembly
WARNING: For your own safety, never connect plug to power source outlet until all assembly steps are complete and you have read and understood the safety and operation instructions. Do not operate vac with any parts damaged or missing.
If the filter cage and float are not already installed, follow the instructions below for proper assembly:
1.Place the lid assembly of the vac upside down.
2.Place the float over the center of the lid with the words “This Side Towards Lid” laying face down over the hole.
3.Line up filter cage tabs with the slots in the center ring of the lid assembly. Push on the filter cage until the tabs snap into the slots for a secure fit.
NOTE: If filter cage needs to be removed because the float is placed in the wrong
way, use a flat blade screwdriver and insert the blade near one of the tabs between the filter cage and the center ring of the lid. Pry the tab out of the slot. Tilt the cage and lift away from the lid. To replace, repeat steps
