Operating instructions

Operations

This machine is a commercial vacuum designed for wet

and dry pick-up.

Dry soil can be vacuumed directly into the tank. To

empty the tank of dry soil, remove the top and dump

into trash receptacle.

For wet pick-up, remove polyester filter. The machine is

equipped with a float shut-off. As the tank is filled to

capacity, a float rises and seals the vac intake, causing

loss of vacuum. Switch off the vacuum when this

happens and bring the machine to a floor drain.

Use the convenient drain hose at the back of the

vacuum to empty the tank.

With both wet and dry applications be sure to frequently

clean the filter. This is especially true when the vacuum

is being used with strippers and wax.

Strippers and some detergents produce foam which will

damage the vac motors. The vac shut-off may not be

sensitive to all foams. Be sure to check that the tank is

not filling with foam. Use a defoaming agent to avoid

pulling foam through vac motor. Should vac motor

become wet, remove source of overflow and immedi-

ately run vac motor open to dry.

At the end of each working day:

1. After each use, rinse tank with fresh water. Periodi-

cally inspect the recovery tank and decontaminate

if necessary, using a Hospital Grade Virucide or a

1:10 bleach to water solution. Waste water should

be disposed of properly.

2. Remove head assembly and allow tank to dry.

3. Remove filters for cleaning or to allow to dry.

4. Inspect hoses for wear. Frayed or cracked hoses

should be replaced to avoid vacuum loss.

5. Inspect power cord for wear. This cable will lay on

wet surfaces. To prevent electrical shock replace

cords with frayed or cracked insulation immedi-

ately.
