2. Safety Information

Please read and understand all safety instructions before operating the vacuum cleaner. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock, fire, or serious injury.

• Always disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet before performing any maintenance or cleaning.
• Do not use the vacuum cleaner near flammable liquids, gases, or explosive dusts.
• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
• Do not immerse the vacuum cleaner in water or other liquids.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.
• Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer's recommended attachments.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

3. Setup

3.1 Assembly

1. Unpack all components from the packaging.
2. Attach the hose to the intake port on the front of the vacuum unit by twisting it clockwise until secure.
3. Select the desired nozzle or accessory and firmly attach it to the end of the hose.

3.2 Filter Installation

The vacuum cleaner uses two types of filters: a reusable cloth filter for dry pickup and a foam sleeve filter for wet pickup.

• For Dry Pickup: Ensure the reusable cloth filter is securely installed over the filter cage inside the tank. This filter is essential for capturing fine dust and debris.
• For Wet Pickup: Remove the reusable cloth filter. Install the reusable foam sleeve filter over the filter cage. This filter protects the motor during wet vacuuming.

Always ensure the correct filter is installed for the type of debris you are collecting to prevent damage to the motor and ensure optimal performance.

4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Dry Pickup

1. Ensure the reusable cloth filter is properly installed.
2. Connect the power cord to a suitable electrical outlet.
3. Turn the vacuum ON using the large dust-sealed switch.
4. Begin vacuuming dry debris. The crevice tool is ideal for tight spaces, and the 2-in-1 utility nozzle with brush is effective for general surfaces and upholstery.

2. Connect the power cord to a suitable electrical outlet.

4.3 Blower Function

The vacuum cleaner can be easily converted into a blower for clearing debris from surfaces or inflating items.

5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning the Unit

• After each use, especially after wet pickup, empty the tank and rinse it with water.
• Wipe down the exterior of the unit with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

5.2 Filter Care

• Reusable Cloth Filter: For dry pickup, tap off excess dust. If heavily soiled, wash with mild soap and water, then allow to air dry completely before reinstallation.

Note: Always ensure filters are completely dry before using the vacuum for dry pickup to prevent motor damage.
