Install Inlet Valve
Strip the low-voltage wires. Connect the wires
to the inlet valve (refer to Figure 3). Connect
the other end of the wires to the spring-loaded
connectors on the side of the power unit.

low-voltage electrical circuit which automatically
activates the power unit. To turn off the vacuum,
unplug the hose from the inlet.
Install Intake
Flexible tube is provided to connect power unit
with inlet valve. Cut the tube to desired length.
Do not glue the connection to the power unit in

HOW TO USE
Connecting and disconnecting the hose
Plugging the hose into an inlet valve completes a low-voltage electrical circuit which activates a relay and turns on the
vacuum cleaner. To turn off the unit, unplug the hose from the inlet valve.When unplugging the hose, hold the inlet cover
open for a few seconds to allow suction to decrease and protect the inner seal. An obstruction in the inlet valve may cause
the power unit to continue to run after the hose has been removed from the inlet. To shut down the power unit, check all the
inlet valves and remove obstructions.
How to change the dust bag
BEFLEXX Dust Bag HEPA Style with part number #9281 is the correct replacement dust bag. Open the top cover (orange) on
the vacuum cleaner by pushing the latch upward. Remove full dust bag and discard. Replace a new dust bag all the way over
the ange. When closing the top cover tuck in left and right corners of the bag, so the cover is properly sealed and the latch
clicks into place.
To change motor lter
BEFLEXX Motor Filter with part numer #9284 is the correct replacement part. Open the top cover (orange) on the vacuum
cleaner by pushing the latch upward. Remove dirty motor lter. Replace a new motor lter correctly. Motor lter is to be
changed after the use of 5 dust bags.
If motor suddenly stops
The most common cause is a clogged hose. Disconnect vacuum hose from inlet valve, hold one end high up in the air and drop
a quarter or similar object into the hose. If the quarter gets stuck the hose is clogged.Try to unclog the hose with a long stick
or see below ‘’cleaning the hose‘’.
The bag is overlled or ne dust has clogged the bag.
The vacuum cleaning tools are clogged.
Vacuuming large amounts of dust other than household dirt, such as dry-wall or ne wood dust can block the bags pores
fast, even If the bag is fairly new.
The motor lter is dirty and should be replaced.
If power unit is installed in an air tight compartment and the exhausting air cannot escape, the motor can overheat and will
shut off automatically until it cooled down and will restart automatically.
Cleaning the stretch hose
The stretch hose, besides all its’ conveniences, has a tendency to get clogged, especially if you have pets.
Lift the hose up on both ends and dispense some liquid detergent into both ends.
with a garden hose, holding both ends still up, ll ¾ with water.
shake hose up and down, let detergent loosen the dirt.
stretch the hose as far as you can (2 people required) and wash the dirt out with full pressure of the garden hose. Repeat
if necessary.
hang hose up, let hose drain and dry completely, it might take 24 hvours.
