Extension Cords
When using the appliance at a distance where an extension cord becomes necessary, a 3-conductor grounding cord
of adequate size must be used for safety, and to prevent loss of power and overheating. Use the table to the left
to determine A.W.G. wire size required. To determine ampere rating of your vacuum, refer to nameplate located on
rear of motor cover. Before using appliance, inspect power cord for loose or exposed wires and damaged insulation.
Make any needed repairs or replacements before using your appliance. Use only three-wire outdoor extension cords
which have three-prong grounding-type plugs and three-pole receptacles which accept the extension cords plug.
When vacuuming liquids, be sure the extension cord connection does not come in contact with the liquid.
NOTE: STATIC SHOCKS ARE COMMON IN DRY AREAS OR WHEN THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY OF THE AIR IS LOW.
THIS IS ONLY TEMPORARY AND DOES NOT AFFECT THE USE OF THE APPLIANCE, TO REDUCE THE FREQUENCY
OF STATIC SHOCKS IN YOUR HOME; THE BEST REMEDY IS TO ADD MOISTURE TO THE AIR WITH CONSOLE OR
INSTALLED HUMIDIFIER.

Operation
This vacuum is equipped with a lter gauge that measures the resistance of airow through the vacuum.
Generally the gauge will rise as the lter becomes clogged. When the gauge shows red, the lters should be
cleaned or swapped. The amount of time between cleaning intervals varies with amount and size of dust be-
ing collected over a given period.
Note: The gauge reading will change depending on the length of hose and which tools are being used.
Dust collection tanks have a 30 or 50 gallon capacity.
Install the plastic collection bag in the tank with excess plastic gathered and draped over edge of tank.
WARNING: The actual dust collection capacity should be based on whatever is an acceptable weight to
handle. If the tank is lled to create an unmanageable weight for an individual to safely lift, the operator is
required to utilize a mechanical lifting device. Consult local regulations regarding disposal of debris and follow
those regulations.
Note: If bags are not available, it is possible to safely run the
vacuum by unplugging the small 3/4” equalizer vacuum hose from
the tank without a bag and plugging both the hose and the tank
port. This will allow for normal operation except that the operator
will then have to dump the dust collected in the tank and the tank
will have to be thoroughly cleaned before using bags again. If you
fail to disconnect and plug the equalizer hose and port, excessive
dust will ow directly to the HEPA lters.
