Float/Cage Assembly

WARNING: For your own safety,

never connect plug to power source

outlet until all assembly steps are

complete and you have read and

understood the safety and operation

instructions. Do not operate vac

with any parts damaged or missing.

1. Place the lid assembly of vac upside

down into the drum or on a clean

smooth surface.

2. Locate the float. Place the float over the

opening in the center of the lid with the

words “This Side Towards Lid” laying

face down over the hole.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of per-

sonal injury or damage to vac be

sure to keep hands, fingers, or any

other foreign objects out of the cen-

ter opening when assembling the

float.

3. Line up filter cage tabs with the slots in

the center ring of the lid assembly.

4. Push on the filter cage until the tabs

snap into the slots for a secure fit.

NOTE: If filter cage needs to be removed,

because the float is placed in the wrong

way, use a slotted screwdriver and insert

the blade near one of the tabs between

the filter cage and the center ring of the

lid. Pry the tab out of the slot. Tilt the cage

and lift away from the lid. To replace, fol-

low float/cage assembly instructions.

Filter Assembly

1. Carefully slide the filter over the filter

2. Place filter nut onto threaded screw and

tighten it down. Finger tighten only.

NOTE: Lever of filter nut should be away

from filter as shown.
