TROUBLESHOOTING
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning Strainer
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of
injury from accidental starting, unplug power
cord before cleaning strainer.
Your pump requires no additional lubrication or
maintenance beyond keeping it clean and free
of debris.
Cleaning
Before storing the pump, it should be cleaned.
To clean the Pump Accessory, rinse out your
vac drum so that it is free of any debris. Fill
the drum 3/4 of the way full with clean water
and allow the pump to pump the water out.
For vacuums under 12-gallons, perform this
procedure twice. Remove the remaining water
from the drum; remove the Pump Accessory
from the drain and install the supplied drain cap
to the permanently installed drain adapter.
To keep your pump looking its best, clean the
outside with a cloth dampened with warm water
and mild soap. Remove any excess water or
debris with a dry cloth.
Cord Storage
Wrap the cord and use the attached hook &
loop strap to retain the cord.
Storing the Pump Accessory
When not in use, store your Pump Accessory
in a cool, dry location with the cord wrapped
using the supplied hook & loop cord wrap.
The original Wet/Dry Vac drain cap should then
be installed on the drain adapter that has been
permanently attached to the drain of your Wet/
Dry Vac.
WARNING:
Extreme temperatures
can cause the motor seal to fail, allowing
water into the motor.
WARNING:
To assure product SAFETY
and RELIABILITY, repairs and adjustment
should be performed by Independent Service
Centers, always use approved replacement
parts.
