PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY BEFORE USING THE MACHINE
CAUTION: THE OPERATOR SHOULD TEST THE VACUUM MACHINE FOR GROUND
CONTINUITY BEFORE EACH USE
TEST FOR GROUND CONTINUITY (Ul 1213 par. 22)
1. Make sure that the grounding path between the
terminal for connection of the grounding conductor of
the power cord and parts of the Vacuum is assured.
2. Check the ground continuity with an appropriate
continuity tester.
3. The resistance of the grounding continuity path
shall not exceed 0.1 ohm.
WARNING
Using the tester, check for continuity between each connection of the vacuum
cleaner (example: tool to wand, wand to hose, hose to machine, etc) If the problem
can not be corrected refer the unit to an AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER ONLY.
: If unacceptable results are recorded, DO NOT OPERATE THE CLEANER.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR DRY RECOVERY
1. Release latches and remove power-head from recovery tank.
2. Insure that the static dissipating, polyester felt filter is properly
mounted in the recovery tank. If not, refer to the instructions for
“Replacing the Main Filter” (page 6).
3. Place the power-head back on the recovery tank and fasten latches.
1
4. Attach the static dissipating hose to the suction
inlet on the recovery tank and attach the desired tool to the hose.
5. Conduct a ground continuity check before operating (Figure 1).
6. Operate this machine only on properly grounded electrical outlets.
PAGE 3
MAKING ADJUSTMENTS TO CONTAINER GASKETS
If you suspect the gasket between the motor head and the filter
chamber is not sealing properly:
1. Loosen latch screws "A" and slide latch downward.
2. Tighten latch screws.
3. Turn on the unit and inspect the seal between the motor
head and filter chamber.
4. Replace the gasket if the seal continues to leak.
If you suspect the gasket between the filter chamber and the
collection can is not sealing properly:
1. Loosen the screws "A" that lock filter chamber "B" against
the vacuum structure.
2. Lower filter chamber "B" slightly and retighten screws "A".
3. Turn on the unit and inspect the seal between the filter
chamber and the collection can.
4. Replace the gasket if the seal continues to leak.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This vacuum cleaner must be connected to an earth ground source. Cord plug installed by customer,shall be
suitable for the hazardous locations area that vacuum is installed in. If the vacuum cleaner should malfunction or
break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electrical shock.
This vacuum cleaner must be properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
: 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.
Use only with certified explosion-proof plugs and outlets.
TOOLS AND ATTACHMENTS
This equipment is only certified for explosion-proof operation if it is equipped with the proper
conductive hose and tools. Any alteration to this equipment by a third party will nullify its certification.
