ET-VACUUM OPERATION

WARNING: BE SURE TO READ, UNDERSTAND, AND APPLY INFORMATION, 
ENTITLED ‘SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS’.  DO NOT VACUUM IN 
AREAS WITH FLAMMABLE GASES, VAPORS, OR EXPLOSIVE DUSTS IN THE 
AIR.  FLAMMABLE GASES OR VAPORS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO; 
LIGHTER FLUID, SOLVENT TYPE CLEANERS, OIL-BASE PAINTS, GASOLINE, 
ALCOHOL OR AEROSOL SPRAYS.  EXPLOSIVE DUSTS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT 
LIMITED TO; COAL, MAGNESIUM, GRAIN OR GUN POWDER.  TO REDUCE THE 
RISK OF HEALTH HAZARDS FROM VAPORS OR DUST, DO NOT VACUUM TOXIC 
MATERIALS.
WARNING:  DO NOT PLUG IN POWER CORD TO POWER SOCKET, MAKE SURE 
PLUG IS DISCONNECTED BEFORE ASSEMBLING THE WER AND DRY VACUUM 
CLEANER

1.  Verify that the power cord is disconnected from the power socket. Verify that the 
     container is clean and free of dust and dirt.  (fig. 1)
2.  Remove cartridge filter and the dust collection bag, then carefully install the foam  
     sleeve filter over the filter cage and place the power head back on the container.     
     (fig. 2)  See filter installing instructions on page 9.

DO NOT USE THE CARTRIDGE FILTER FOR LIQUID VACUUMING.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS – WET VACUUMING

3.  Fit the desired extension wands or nozzle to the vacuum hose. (fig. 3) 
4.  Verify that the switch is in the ‘O’ OFF position before plugging the power cord  
     into the power socket. (fig. 4 & 5) 
5.  Turn the motor on by flipping the switch to the ‘I’ ON position.  (fig. 6)
6.  After use, flip the switch to the ‘O’ OFF position and unplug the power cord  from 
     the power socket.  (fig. 7 & 8)
7.  Empty the container into a suitable receptacle or drain. (fig. 9)
8.  To rewind the cord, hold on to the plug and press the cord rewind button. Do not  
    allow plug to whip when rewinding. (fig. 10)

IMPORTANT! 

  When vacuuming large quantities of liquids, do not immerse the 

nozzle completely in the liquid; leave a gap at the tip of the nozzle opening to 

allow air inflow. The machine is fitted with a float valve that stops the suction 
action when the container reaches its maximum capacity. You will notice an 
increase in motor noise.  When this happens, turn off the machine, disconnect 
from power supply, and drain the liquid into a suitable receptacle or drain.  
To continue vacuuming, refit the container with power head. After wet 
vacuuming, turn the machine off and remove plug from power supply.  Empty 
the container, clean and dry the inside and outside before storage.

REMEMBER!

 

The foam filter must be removed after wet vacuuming, and a 

cartridge filter must be installed before dry vacuuming again.

1. Verify that the power cord is disconnected from the power socket.  (fig.1)
2. Disconnect the hose from the vacuum cleaner.  (fig. 2)
3. Undo the latches and remove the power head from the container.  (fig. 3)
4. Clear all dirt or debris from the container and hose.  (fig. 4)
5. Clean the foam filter by washing it with water and mild soap.  (fig. 5) 
6. Check the hose, attachments, and power cord to verify that they have not been 
    damaged.

IMPORTANT! 

Clean or change the cartridge filter regularly for best 

performance.  ALWAYS USE CARTRIDGE FILTER FOR DRY VACUUMING.  If the 
machine is used without the cartridge filter, the motor will burn out and the 
warranty will be voided.  Always keep spare filters on hand. 

NOTICE! 

The filters included are made of high quality materials designed to 

stop small dust particles. The cartridge filter should be used for dry pick-up
