INTRODUCTION

MOTOR
Electric thru-flow vacuum motors must never be used in applications in which wet or moist conditions are involved, where dry chemicals or other volatile materials are present, or where airflow may be restricted or blocked. Such motors are designed to permit the vacuumed air to pass over the electrical wiring to cool it. Therefore, any liquid (including water), dry chemical, or other foreign substance which would come in contact with electrical conductors could cause combustion (depending on volatility) or electrical shock. Failure to observe these precautions could result in property damage and personal injury, including death in extreme cases.

ELECTRICAL
This document only applies to 120 volt/60 Hz models. Severe changes in voltage, high or low, can cause damage to the motor and cause premature motor failure. Model numbers and specifications can be obtained by contacting ProTeam.
The vacuum cleaners described in this manual are equipped with a thermal protection cutoff device. This integrated thermal cutoff switch will remove power from the vacuum motor in the event excessively high operating temperatures are detected. This condition may arise as the result of a blocked vacuum passage, or clogged or full filters.
Should a thermal trip take place, immediately turn off the vacuum switch, unplug the cord from the wall outlet, and inspect for a blockage and verify the condition of the filter bag. Replace or empty the filter bag as required. The vacuum will require several minutes to cool down to a safe operating temperature. When this temperature is attained, the thermal switch will reset at any moment and the vacuum will be able to be used in a normal manner.

CORD MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The cord management system consists of 2 separate components that reside on the switch box: the twist-lock and cord guide. Both of these features, when used in accordance with the instructions in the quick start and owner’s manual, act as cord retention and strain relief during operation of the vacuum. The twist-lock ensures the extension cord plug remains firmly seated in the switch box. The cord guide acts as strain relief for the extension cord.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
THESE VACUUMS MUST BE GROUNDED. If a vacuum should malfunction or stop working, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current, thereby reducing the risk of electrical shock. This unit is equipped with a cord that has an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug.
The plug must be inserted in an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Cutting off the ground wire or using a cord that is not equipped with a ground plug will void the warranty on the unit, and ProTeam will accept NO liability associated with the unit.

WARNING

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are unsure that the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the vacuum. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
The vacuum cleaners in this manual are for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and have a grounded plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in Figure AA. A temporary adaptor that looks like the adaptor illustrated in sketches B and C may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adaptor should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adaptor must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.
Note: In Canada, the use of a temporary adaptor is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.
For Canada – This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounded attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in Figure AA. Make sure that the vacuums are connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adaptor should be used with the vacuums detailed in this manual.

To switch the harness, pull the upper half of the harness cover up and away from the plastic inside (Figure N).
Slide the cover downwards to remove from the plastic pieces (Figure O).
Perform the steps in reverse to place your personal harness on the vacuum, ensuring that the Velcro® is properly secured by pressing on the purple fabric pockets.

BLOWING FEATURE
With use of the Blower Doors Accessory, your vac can blow sawdust and other debris. Follow the steps below to use your Vac as a Blower.

Remove filter doors & post-motor filters from the GoFit vacuum (Figure P).
Install the two blower doors by snapping each filter door in place. One filter door with blowing port and one without – in place of original GoFit doors that allow full exhaust airflow (Figure Q).
Attach the hose to the blowing port and attach the blower tool or other accessory to the end of the hose as needed (Figure R).
Turn the Vac ON and you are ready to use your Vac as a Blower.

WARNING
Always wear safety eyewear complying with ANSI Z87.1 (or in Canada, CSA Z94.3) before using as a blower.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury to bystanders, keep them clear of blowing debris.

WARNING
Wear a dust mask if blowing creates dust which might be inhaled.

WARNING

Do not tie the extension cord to the vacuum backpack harness or interconnecting cord, always use the cord backpack harness or interconnecting cord, always use the cord management system to safely hold the extension cord. Inspect all cords thoroughly before each use. Tied cords can lead to a cut, frayed or worn cord. Cut, frayed or worn cords can result in electric shock, fire or injury
(Figure S).

EXTENSION CORD RETENTION

Plug the extension cord into the back end of the switchbox housing, ensuring the face of the extension cord is completely seated against the face of the switchbox plug body with no gap (Figure T). Use the twist-lock observation windows to confirm full mating of the extension cord to the switchbox plug (Figure U). If not fully seated, firmly push on the extension cord until it is completely seated with no gap.
Firmly turn the twist-lock cuff clockwise until it no longer tightens on the extension cord (Figure V).
With approximately 12″ of slack, secure the extension cord to the switchbox by routing the cord through the cord guide (Figure W).
Use the QR code on the switchbox label to learn more.

OPERATING THE BACKPACK VACUUM

If your kit includes a telescoping wand: connect extension cord as described above.
Fasten the ends of the wands together. Pull back to open purple latch on lower half of the wand. Find the notch on the inside of lower half and the groove on the outside of the upper half – they must align. Insert the upper half into the lower by aligning the notch and groove. To tighten into position, close the purple latch when wand is at desired height
(Figure X). If wand does not stay at desired height, pull open the purple latch, tighten the Phillips screw as necessary, and close the purple latch again.
If your kit includes a two-piece wand: Fasten the ends of your wand together. They will either be a press-fit, or contain a spring-loaded pin for a locking fit.
Attach the floor tool to end of wand. Align the brass ring with the groove on the floor tool to ensure a secure fit (Figure X).
Twist the wand into the end of the hose (Figure X). Plug the power cord into the wall. Turn the unit on, and proceed with vacuuming.
The ON/OFF switch is conveniently located on the waist belt of the backpack vacuums (Figure Y).
The GoFit PLUS comes with a filter bag change indicator LED light located on the switchbox (Figure Z).
The indicator light will turn solid red when the Intercept Micro Filter bag needs to be checked/changed out.
The indicator light will change from solid red to flashing red if there is a clog or blockage in the hose/wand area or filter bag is at maximum debris capacity.
When this occurs, user should turn off vacuum and check filter, hose and/or wand for clog or if filter bag is full.

INDICATOR KEY:
Solid Red: Check Intercept Micro Filter Bag
Flashing Red: Check for clog or blockage
Note: This filter bag change feature is based on the vacuum motor performance. Different debris types (light vs. heavy) will affect the fill level.
Lighter debris typically fills higher in the bag before the indicator light goes on. Heavier debris typically fills lower in bag when light goes on.

FILTER MAINTENANCE

Note:
When opening the cap to check/change filters, ensure the upper harness is not locked in the highest position on vacuum body. Please refer to page 6 under Harness Height Adjustment for detailed steps.

Empty and inspect the Intercept Micro Filter every time you start and finish vacuuming (Figure A). Replace if necessary. A clogged and dirty filter restricts airflow and results in reduced suction and overheating.
To replace the Intercept Micro Filter, slide filter into the Cloth Filter and secure into vacuum (Figure B).
Once a month, or as necessary, hand or machine wash the Cloth Filter and let it air dry. DO NOT put it in the dryer (Figure C).
WARNINGTo reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury, do not use the vacuum with a wet cloth filter bag or dome filter. Allow the filters to dry completely before reinstalling.
Once a week, or as necessary, clean the Dome Filter.
First, remove the Intercept Micro Filter and Cloth Filter. Reach into the vacuum body and pull the top piece of the Dome Filter off and remove the foam media (Figure D). b. Shake it out, rinse it and let it air dry thoroughly (Figure E). c. Once dry, replace and firmly snap the top piece of the Dome Filter into place.5. Once every two weeks, or as necessary, inspect the HEPA media filters. When the filter becomes discolored, replace it with a new filter. For best results, this filter should be replaced every 6 months.
To inspect or replace the HEPA media filter, press the purple release button and rotate the door away from the vacuum body (Figure F). Grasp the plastic housing on the HEPA media filter and remove from vacuum (Figure G).
To replace the filter door, align the two tabs to the housing and press in place, then rotate the door inward (Figure F). Be sure to press the door firmly to the vacuum as you release the purple button.
DO NOT use without filters in place or with damaged filters.Note: The Intercept Micro filter reorder numbers are also conveniently located on the inside of the vacuum lid.

RECOMMENDED PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

WARNING
CHECK the condition of all electrical cords before each use.

UPON RECEIPT

Check unit for any defects, missing or broken parts. Call ProTeam with this information, along with any questions you may have.

DAILY/AFTER EACH USE
Check Intercept Micro Filter. Replace or empty if full. Use only genuine ProTeam replacement filters to ensure optimal performance, achieve improved indoor air quality, and to maintain a valid vacuum warranty. Check Micro Cloth Filter. If dirty, rinse out and air dry before replacing back into vacuum. All filters must be in place to operate vacuum.
This will optimize airflow and prevent the motor from laboring.

PERIODICALLY
Check harness for fit and comfort. Replace lost or damaged pieces.

ELECTRICAL CORD CARE
NEVER stretch the cord tightly between the vacuum and the outlet.
A cord that is stretched or pulled may not function properly, can damage the cord or plug, and creates a tripping hazard.
DO NOT tie extension cord to switchbox, power cord, or harness in attempt to prevent extension cord from disconnecting. Doing so will result in damage to both the cords and the switchbox and will not be covered under warranty. Use the provided cord management system to safely secure the extension cord and plug to the switchbox.
After vacuuming, unplug the extension cord at both ends and wind it up loosely.

Wind the cord from the female receptacle to the male plug.
Lay the cord out, as straight as possible, on the floor before winding.
DO NOT wind the cord up by wrapping it around your hand and elbow, as repeated winding in this manner will result in twisted cord that is hard to wind and unwind.

Use only a ProTeam replacement extension cord, or one that is properly sized for your application. Extension cord jacket type should be SJT, SJTW or better and rated for outdoor use. Extension cords in poor condition or too small in wire size can pose fire and shock hazards.
To reduce the risk of these hazards, be sure the cord is in good condition and that liquid does not contact the connection. DO NOT use an extension cord with conductors smaller than 16 gauge (AWG) in size. To reduce power loss, use a 14 gauge extension cord if longer than
50 ft.
Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.

PROPER STORAGE
When the vacuum is not in use, the vacuum and extension cord should be stored indoors and in a dry place.

WARNING
The following information is for use by qualified service personnel only, and provides guidance for troubleshooting and maintenance under normal working conditions.

UNPLUG the vacuum when working on the motor or any electrical part.

MOTOR BRUSHES
Only a ProTeam-authorized service or warranty center should replace the carbon motor brushes. Use the following schedule for replacement:

After the first 1000 hours of operation.
Again after the next 500 hours of operation.
Again after the next 200 hours of operation.

PROTEAM SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES CAUSED BY DELAY IN PERFORMANCE AND IN NO EVENT, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, INFRINGEMENT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OTHER TORT OR OTHERWISE), SHALL PROTEAM’S LIABILITY TO YOU AND/OR YOUR CUSTOMERS EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE PAID BY YOU FOR THE PRODUCT. The term “consequential damages” shall include, but not be limited to, loss of anticipated profits, business interruption, loss of use or revenue, cost of capital or loss or damage to property. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply to you. This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from State to State.

This limited warranty is governed by the laws of the State of Missouri, U.S.A., without regard to conflicts of law provisions.

Dispute Resolution
In the event of any dispute INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED
TO, BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, CLAIMS BASED IN TORT, NEGLIGENCE, PRODUCT LIABILITY, FRAUD, MARKETING, STATE OR FEDERAL REGULATIONS, ANY CLAIMS REGARDING THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY, AND THE WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION TRIALS between PROTEAM AND YOU, either party may choose to resolve the dispute by binding arbitration, as described below, instead of in court. THIS MEANS IF EITHER PROTEAM OR YOU CHOOSE BINDING ARBITRATION, NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE SUCH CLAIM IN COURT OR HAVE A JURY TRIAL. DISCOVERY AND APPEAL RIGHTS ARE LIMITED IN BINDING ARBITRATION. ProTeam and You agree that the proper venue if Arbitration is not so chosen by ProTeam OR You of all actions arising in connection herewith shall be only in the state of Missouri and the parties agree to such jurisdiction. No action, regardless of form, arising out of transactions relating to the agreement, may be brought by either party more than two (2) years after the cause of action has accrued. The U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sales of Goods shall not apply to this agreement.

Class Action Waiver
BINDING ARBITRATION MUST BE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. THIS MEANS NEITHER PROTEAM OR YOU MAY JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS IN ARBITRATION BY OR AGAINST OTHERS, OR LITIGATE IN COURT OR ARBITRATE ANY CLAIMS AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER OF A CLASS OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY.

Administration of Arbitration
The binding arbitration must be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and/or Supplementary Procedures for Consumer- Related Disputes (including proceedings to mitigate costs of travel). This binding arbitration is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) (9 USC §1, et. seq.) and will govern the interpretation and enforcement. The binding arbitration shall be held at a location determined by AAA or at such other location as mutually agreed. In addition to the terms stated above, the following will apply to the binding arbitration: (1) the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this agreement including any claim that all or any part of this agreement is void or voidable; (2) the arbitrator shall apply Missouri law consistent with the FAA.
