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 necessary
ttings, pipes, glue and wiring, as well
as a detailed instructions booklet, are
available from Simplicity service centers.
5
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 (figure 3) .
Installation

Using the Right Air Intake
(except H3 model)
To use the air intake located on the right side
of the vacuum:
1. Using a at screwdriver, loosen the clamp
collars and remove the rubber coupling
from the left air intake (figure 4).
2.
Unlatch the two clips and remove the dust
receptacle (see page 17, figure 15).
3. Remove the bag if needed for more
convenience (see page 17).
4. Pull the bag adaptor out of the left air intake
(figure 5).
5. Remove the cap on the right air intake
(figure 6) and put it on the left air intake.
Making sure that the tabs are aligned with
the notches, push the cap in completely
.
6. From the inside of the vacuum, insert
the bag adaptor into the right air intake,
making sure that the embossed lines on the
adaptor are aligned with the slots in the air
intake . Outside the vacuum, the
end of the adaptor should come out of the
air intake about ¾" (1.9 cm).
7. Put the rubber coupling on the right air
intake and tighten the clamp collars using a
at screwdriver.
8. Put the bag and dust receptacle back in
place and latch both clips (see page 17).
