Wash and check the float before each use...
Once the float dries, it can get stuck to the bottom of
the cage on the underside of the lid. When this occurs,
it prevents the float from being able to rise up and seal
the water from getting into the unit. This can cause
damage to your unit, as well as possiblity of shock.
Lift off the wet pickup lid by unlatching it from the can.
Check the styrofoam float located on the underside of the
lid and make sure it is loose and moving freely. (Figure 1)
Replace the lid and latch back. Be sure to line up the
latches with the notches on the lid. (Figure 2)

BEFORE EACH USE
Attaching the vacuum hose
First, attach your shorter 10 ft. hose that has two cuffs on it
included with your wet pick up canister set. (Figure 3)
Insert the slip cuff into the top of the wet pick up lid,
where it is labeled “to inlet”. (Figure 4)
Attaching the cleaning hose*
Insert the end of your vacuum cleaning hose
(not included - Use only non-electric hose) into
the side inlet stem on the top of the wet pick
up lid. (Figure 5)

HOOKING UP YOUR WET PICKUP CANISTER
During use the float will rise to the top and seal
the opening when full. This ensures no liquid
entering the vacuum system.

not be used with the wet pick up kit.)

Once you are ready to begin vacuuming,
insert the banded end of the 10 ft. hose
Into your central vacuum inlet valve
in the wall (Figure 6a) or inlet
