Your  Water  Claw  requires  very  little  maintenance.  To  keep  your  Water  Claw 
looking and working its best for the longest period of use: 

 

Rinse the Water Claw after use, wipe down and let dry.  

 

Examine the vacuum ports on the base and remove debris as needed.  

If an excessive amount of debris has been lodged in the ports or is caught in the 
base assembly, the bottom can be removed from the top of the base. Remove the 
four bolts holding the handle support/Vacuum relief bracket onto the base. Then 
use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screws connecting the top plate and 
the base plate and pull the bottom away from the top. Clean out the debris and 
examine the gasket. Replace the gasket if damaged. Place the top plate back onto 
the bottom and re-install the bolts and screws. 

 

 

The  handle  of  the  Water  Claw  can  be  removed  for  storage  by  pressing  in  the 
lower snap button and lifting the handle up away from the handle support on the 
base. The base of the Water Claw can be placed into the Carry Bag and the handle 
placed strapped to the Carry Bag for transport and storage.
