IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVICE
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides
a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This machine
is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a ground plug (see illustration,
below). Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as
the plug. No adaptor should be used with this appliance.
WARNING
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the
outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

WET OPERATION OF THE VACUUM
DRY OPERATION OF THE VACUUM
The wet/dry vacuums are equipped with bypass motors. Install the cloth filter, and make sure the
cartridge filter is also in place on the motor head. Place the motor head on the canister and snap
down the hold-down clamps.
The wet/dry vacuums are equipped with a bypass motor so that the working vacuum is
separated from the cooling air flow. To pick up water, the cloth filter must be removed and the
float cage assembly with cartridge filter must be in place, the motor head placed on the canister
and the hold down clamps locked down. The safety float located in the protective wire frame in
the tank stops the vacuum action of the motor head when the maximum recovery of liquids is
reached.
NOTE: WHEN PICKING UP FLOOR STRIPPER WITH THESE UNITS IT IS NECESSARY TO USE
ALL FILTERS. WHEN THE STRIPPER RECOVERY OPERATION IS COMPLETED, ALL FILTERS
AND THE FLOAT CAGE MUST BE THOROUGHLY RINSED AND ALLOWED TO AIR DRY.
