NOTE: To remove the handle, press the release button located on the back of the unit with a thin tool while pulling up on the handle.

NOTE: When assembling your HydroVac, there may be a little water in or around the water tanks. This is because we test all our HydroVacs before you buy them to ensure the highest quality.

USING YOUR 3-IN-1 CLEANER

To use, unwrap the power cord from the back of the unit. Plug the prongs in to a safe outlet. Make sure the prongs are not wet before plugging into an outlet. When you are done cleaning, unplug the cord and wrap it around the cord-wrap hooks.

FILLING THE CLEAN SOLUTION TANK

Unscrew the cap and add water to the tank, up to the WATER line. Next, add Shark HydroVac™ Multi-Surface Concentrate, filling to the HYDROVAC CONCENTRATE line. Replace the cap and reinsert the tank until it clicks into place. The top of the tank should be flush with the top of the body.

NOTE: Only use Shark HydroVac Multi-Surface Concentrate, Shark HydroVac Disinfectant, and water with this product.
NOTE: If the clean solution tank is empty, the unit may make a pumping sound. This is normal. Refill the clean solution tank to continue.
NOTE: Be sure to not overfill the Clean Solution Tank with more HydroVac Multi Surface Concentrate than instructed, as this may cause streaking.
