AUSSIE VAC 1661139421 Ducted Vacuum System

INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL AUSTRALIAN MODELS

• Congratulations on your purchase of a new Aussie Vac ducted vacuum cleaner.
• Our systems are designed to give you many years of quality service with minimum fuss.
• Before using your Aussie Vac, please take the time to read these instructions and keep them in a safe place for future reference.
• Fittings required to complete installation of your new Aussie Vac Ducted Vacuum System.

INSTALLING YOUR POWER UNIT

• If you are installing your own Aussie Vac ducted vacuum system, the following section will assist you to fit your power unit and to complete the installation process.
• The Power Unit is designed to be mounted on a wall and must be at least 200 mm off the ground to allow air to circulate around the motor.
• Note: For new installations, you will need a short piece of pipe to connect the power unit to the rest of the pipe work.
• All Aussie Vac Power Units can be fitted with the pipe entering the drum from either side.
• Glue the spigot adaptor and pipe cap together and fit into the rubber grommet which will not be used, thus sealing the unused side of the drum
• Next, push a piece of pipe through the open rubber grommet so that it can connect to the rest of the pipework and leave you with approximately 100mm of pipe inside the drum
• Glue the 45° elbow and the bag adaptor onto this pipe.
• All Aussie Vac Power Units are supplied with a garage point, consisting of a Tee piece and an Auto Utility Inlet valve.
• Glue the valve into the Tee piece and use these parts to connect the pipe coming from the drum to the pipe coming from the house.
• Do not glue the join nearest the power unit. Use electrical tape on this join to allow for disconnection or removal of the power unit, if required.
• Connect the wires from the power unit to the wires from the house as illustrated. It does not matter which pair of wires go to each screw as long as they do not touch each other.
• Finally, connect the power cord to a standard 240volt power point and switch on.
• Note: A 15amp power point is required for AV2600 model.
• The standby indicator lamp on the front of your power unit should now be on.

OPERATION OF YOUR VACUUM SYSTEM

• The low voltage wiring installed with your power unit allows the vacuum system to turn on and off automatically. Therefore, to use your Aussie Vac simply plug the hose into one of your inlet valves. Once you have finished vacuuming remove the hose and the power unit will shut down.
• The handle at the end of the hose features an air flow control, if suction is too strong or if you are cleaning delicate materials such as curtains, you can slide this control open to reduce suction.
• Your Aussie Vac is a vacuum cleaner, not a garbage disposal unit. Therefore, do not vacuum anything hot, wet or any items that may cause a blockage (eg: liquid spills, fireplaces, hair pins).
• Any fine, powdery substances vacuumed in large quantities will clog the filter bag, which should be replaced immediately. Failure to replace the bag can result in it bursting which may cause damage to the motor, voiding any warranty.
• Note: It is advised that whenever there is a large amount of a fine powdery substance to be cleaned up, you should first remove as much as possible with a brush and pan, only then should you vacuum the remnant debris with your Aussie Vac.
• If your Aussie Vac is installed in your garage or carport you will most likely have a garage point fitted. This valve functions like those in your house. To operate, simply plug in your hose.
• Your Aussie Vac system comes with a range of tools to suit your cleaning requirements. More accessories are available from your Aussie Vac dealer.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Open bag out at pleats.
2. Grasp collar and pleats where indicated and insert bag adaptor nozzle. Be careful not to tear bag.
3. Be sure collar is beyond large diameter of bag adaptor. For removal of full bag, push collar down and away from the bag adaptor. Carefully lift out of the drum.
4. Check filter at bottom of cannister for any debris/fluff etc, wipe inside with a damp cloth.
5. To replace bag go to step 1.

CARING FOR YOUR SYSTEM

• VACUUM POWER UNIT: Power units do not require any oil. The bearings in the motor are greased and sealed for life.
  Brush life is affected by humidity, altitude, temperature and the number of times the motor starts and stops. Thus, through general functioning of the power unit, motor brushes may experience some wear and tear. This may therefore need replacing in some units after 500 to 1,000 hours of use.

• REPLACING FILTER BAGS: The mass of dirt and dust picked up by your Aussie Vac is deposited into the filter bag. It is imperative that bags are replaced when the dirt level is nearing the top of the bag. The efficiency of the vacuum, (mainly the suction) will reduce when the filter bag requires replacing. Damage to the motor is possible if the bag overfills and bursts.

  • Note: It only takes a few moments to check the bag and around a minute to change it! Instructions are provided on page 7 on how to insert filter bags.
  • Do not vacuum up any liquids or cement, plaster or clay dust: Liquids may cause dirt to build up in the vacuum’s piping, reducing the efficiency of your system, and may also damage your filer bag or motor. Vacuuming large amounts of fine dust will clog your filter bag, which can burst and damage your motor.
