OPERATION DETACHABLE TOOL BELT See Figure 7. When not in use, the vacuum attachments provided with the canister vac can be placed in the storage areas located in the tool belt. The belt can also be attached and secured in a variety of places for ease of use. DRY VACUUMING See Figure 7. Vacuum only items small enough to fit through the hose or the attachment. When vacuuming, make sure that the dry use filter stays in place. The performance of the canister vac will decrease with a full collection container. Upon emptying the collection container, check to see if the dry use filter needs replacing. NOTE: The canister vac is shipped ready for dry use vacuuming. To equip the canister vac for wet use, see Maintenance. WET VACUUMING The canister vac can be used to vacuum small amounts of liquid. However, use caution when vacuuming larger amounts of liquid, as this could cause possible problems. When wet or dry vacuuming, make sure the drain plug is firmly in place. When wet vacuuming, be aware that your canister vac is equipped with a safety ball inside the filter unit housing. This safety ball is specially designed to work with wet vacuuming applications to shut the suction off when the collection container reaches full capacity. When the suction shuts off due to a full collection container, turn the canister vac OFF and empty the collection container as shown in Maintenance. NOTE: When wet vacuuming, it is necessary to change the filter from the dry use filter to the included wet use foam filter. To change the filters, see Maintenance. R TOOL BELT BLOWER PORT Fig. 7 WARNING: When vacuuming liquid, make sure the canister vac does not get submerged or doused in liquid, which could cause shock, vacuum failure, or personal injury. WAND USING THE CANISTER VAC AS A BLOWER Fig. 8 See Figure 8. At all times, the canister vac blows air through the blower port as part of the exhaust system. However, you can use the canister vac as a blower by attaching the wand to the blower port. �Remove the battery pack from the canister vac. Remove the hose from the tank if attached. Remove the motor unit from the collection container assembly by lifting the latches simultaneously. Remove the wand from the hose if attached. To remove the wand, pull wand from opening in blower port. To keep from scattering debris, blow around the outer edges of a debris pile. Never blow directly into the center of a pile. Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing. In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water is available. Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly washed cars, and blow debris safely away. To attach the wand, push larger end of wand into the opening of the blower port. For wider air flow, attach the car nozzle to the end of the wand. After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP! Dispose of debris properly. 12
