4.0 Operation and Assembly Instructions
PREPARATION AND OPERATION. DRY ONLY!
This vacuum is equipped with an air-thru motor and is designed for dry pickup only.
Unpack the carton and remove the vacuum and attachments (if purchased with tools).
Getting Started:
1. Make sure your on/off switch is in the OFF position.
2. Remove lid and check to make sure you have both a cloth lter bag and paper lter
bag in place. Secure lid back onto the vacuum body, tightening securely. Both bags
must be used at all times. Any damage resulting from the lack of using both bags will
not be covered under warranty.
3. Thread your safety power cord around the built in cord knob on the side of the
backpack. Do not tie or loop the pigtail cord with the extension cord.
4. Loosen the shoulder and waist belt straps and slide vacuum on.
5. Connect and tighten waist belt ensuring that majority of the weight is on your hips,
not your shoulders.
6. Adjust the shoulder straps for comfort.
7. Connect the sternum straps for added support and ideal t.
8. Plug your vacuum into a properly installed outlet.
9. Turn unit on and proceed with vacuuming.
10. Always store vacuum, safety power cord and tools in a cool dry place indoors.
NOTE: The weight of the vacuum should be distributed on your hips. Adjust any strap as
needed for your custom t.
To Change Paper Filter Bag:
1. Unclip lid latches and lift lid off of the body.
2. Remove full paper bag from the tank and dispose of
properly.
3. Take new paper lter bag and set inside cloth lter bag,
expanding it to the sides of the cloth lter bag.
4. Reinstall the top cap, clamping the lid latches down
tightly.
Cloth Filter Maintenance:
The cloth lter should be inspected and cleaned each time you empty the tank. DO NOT
wash the cloth lter. It could cause shrinkage of the cloth and damage to the gasket.
Simply shake off any dust or loose particles and brush the exposed surface with a soft
bristle brush.
CAUTION: Always exercise caution when handling the vacuum. Dropping the vacuum
could cause permanent damage to the internal components.

HEPA Models:
When the white disk inside your dome lter is discolored, replace it with a new HEPA
lter with bag support. Replacement time frame of the HEPA lter depends on the

Following the instructions above is critical in prolonging the life of your vacuum. All
