Unit Installation

Using the mounting plate provided with your vacuum cleaner, secure the unit to the wall (figure 1), at a height allowing easy access for maintenance of the dirt receptacle and/or bags (see page 4).

The connections to the piping system will require some basic tools: a mitre box and small saw or a pipe cutter (figure 2). See pages 8 and 9 for general instructions pertaining to the preparation of PVC pipes. To simplify matters, installation kits, including necessaryttings, pipes, glue and wiring, as well as a detailed instructions booklet, are available from Simplicity service centers.

Contrary to all other connections in the piping system, do not glue the last tting to your unit. Use the provided rubber seal and clamp collars to secure the last tting to the air intake and obtain an air-tight t (figure3).
