1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1.1 ELECTRICAL SAFETY

WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following: You must check all

electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and any other connectors for wear

or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices. A Residual Current

Circuit Breaker (RCCB) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that a Residual Current Device (RCD) is

used. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are plugged into a supply which is not protected by an RCCB. If in

any doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current Device by contacting your Sealey dealer.

You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.

1.1.1 The Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires that all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, are tested by a

qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.

1.1.2 The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of those

appliances and the safety of the appliance operators. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.

1.1.3 Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply. See 1.1.1. and 1.1.2.

and use a Portable Appliance Tester.

1.1.4 Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.

1.1.5 Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all

connections to ensure that none are loose.

1.1.6 Important: Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance matches the power supply

to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse - see fuse rating at right.

1.1.7 DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.

1.1.8 DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.

1.1.9 DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Immediately have any faulty

item repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician. When a BS 1363/A UK 3 pin plug is

damaged, cut the cable just above the plug and dispose of the plug safely.

Fit a new plug according to the following instructions (UK only).

a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.

b) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal ‘L’.

c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.

d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been

correctly connected, that the cable outer insulation extends beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.

Double insulated products, which are always marked with this symbol , are fitted with live (brown) and neutral (blue) wires only.

To rewire, connect the wires as indicated above - DO NOT connect either wire to the earth terminal.

1.1.10 Products which require more than 13 amps are supplied without a plug. In this case you must contact a qualified electrician to

ensure that a suitably rated supply is available. We recommend that you discuss the installation of an industrial round pin plug and

socket with your electrician.

1.1.11 If an extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A reel with an RCD fitted is preferred since any appliance

plugged into it will be protected. The cable core section is important and should be at least 1.5mm2, but to be absolutely sure that

the capacity of the reel is suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the

use of 2.5mm² section cable.

1.2 GENERAL SAFETY

inflow. The leave a gap at the top of the nozzle opening to

allow an air inflow. The machine is fitted with a float valve which

stops the suction action when the tank has reached its

maximum capacity. The user will notice an increase in motor

speed. When this happens, turn off the machine, disconnect

from power supply and empty the container either by removing

the power head and pouring the liquid out or by removing the

drain cap at the base of the container. After wet vacuuming,

turn the machine off and unplug from power supply. Empty the

container and clean and dry the inside and outside before

storage. Remember! After wet vacuuming the foam filter must

be removed and a cartridge filter must be fitted before dry

vacuuming again.

 WARNING! Ensure you read, understand and apply

Section 1 ‘Safety Instructions’. Reminder: Remove plug

from power supply before opening unit. DO NOT vacuum

solvents, explosives, inflammable and/or hazardous

liquids such as petrol, oil, spirits, paint, thinners, acids etc.

the power supply.

7.5 Press the switch to ‘On’ (position ‘I’).

Note: To vacuum large quantities of liquid, from a sink or

tank etc, do not immerse the nozzle completely in the liquid,

leave a gap at the top of the nozzle opening to allow an air

WARNING! Ensure you read, understand and apply

Section 1 ‘Safety Instructions’. Reminder: DO NOT

vacuum hazardous substances. Use of an incorrect

cartridge filter will invalidate your warranty.

6.1 Ensure the machine is unplugged from the power supply.

9.1 Connect the tool to the hose using the rubber adaptor supplied.

Ensure that the ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position then

plug the dust free tool into the covered socket provided on

the front of the power head (see fig.1-16). Move the switch to

the double bar position. The vacuum cleaner will start

automatically when the tool is switched on. When the tool is

switched off the vacuum will continue to run for 10 seconds to

ensure that the tool and hose are left free of dust.

8. BLOWING

WARNING! Wear a dust mask if blowing creates dust

that might be inhaled.

WARNING! Always wear safety goggles when using the

unit for blowing.

WARNING! Keep bystanders clear from blowing debris.

WARNING! Make sure the container is empty before

using the unit as a blower.

10. MAINTENANCE

10.1 GENERAL MAINTENANCE.

10.1.1 Ensure the machine is unplugged from the power supply. (1)

10.1.2 Disconnect the hose from the container. (2)

10.1.3 Undo the clasps and remove motor head from the container. (3)

10.1.4 Clear out any dirt or debris from the container and hose. (4)

10.1.5 Check that the telescopic suction tube operates smoothly

and check the power cable to make sure it has not been

damaged.

10.2 CARE OF LOCKING CARTRIDGE FILTER

IMPORTANT! Clean or change the cartridge filter regularly

for best performance and long product life. The cartridge

filter is essential for the proper functioning of the cleaner. If

the machine is used without a cartridge filter the motor

will burn out and the warranty will be voided. Always

keep a new, spare filter on hand.

10.2.1 The cartridge filters supplied are made of a high quality

material designed to trap small dust particles and should

only be used for dry vacuum cleaning. If the cartridge filter

becomes wet it will clog very quickly and be very

difficult to clean. Always handle filters very carefully when

removing and cleaning them. Check the filter for tears or

small holes. Replace the filter if it is found to be damaged.

INSTALLING CARTRIDGE FILTER

10.2.2 Remove the power head and turn it upside down. With the

raised rim uppermost fit the cartridge filter tube down over

the filter basket and push fully home. Place the locking disc

onto the top of the filter and turn the locking bar until the

latch drops into the slot in the top of the filter cage. Continue

turning until the filter is fully locked down. (see A & B above).
