IMPORTANT POINTS TO NOTE AT ALL TIMES!

1.  Always ensure you are using the correct combination of filters for the task you are doing.
2. If you experience vacuum loss, please clean the filters, check & clear the blockage in the suction line, and blast the vacuum head vents with air, so you have maximum suction power.
3. Do not leave the vacuum motors running if there is loss of suction, as they can overheat.
4. After every hour of use especially when vacuuming dry dust, blast the filters clear with an airline and blast the vent areas in the vacuum head to clear any build-up of dust.
5. Never use standard extension cords on the 240 volt machines, as these are not sufficient for threemotor operation and can burn the motors out. Only use the ‘Motor saver’ extension cords.
6. Before use operators must be provided with information, instruction and training for the use of the machine and the substances for which it is to be used, including the method of operation, cleaning and maintenance and disposal of the material being collected.
7. This manual has been included as an integral part of the appliance and should be carefully read through BEFORE using the machine.
8. Take the appliance out of its packaging and make sure it is in perfect condition, including accessories and any optional extras you have purchased from the V-TUF range.
9. Make sure that the electrical data of the appliance, shown on the label, corresponds to those of the mains supply.
10. The appliance must only be used with V-TUF accessories and spare parts.
11. The manufacturer disclaims all liability for injury to persons and animals and damage to things due to the irresponsible use of the appliance and to the use of non-original accessories and spare parts.
12. The repair and/or replacement of the various component parts, especially electrical parts, must be done by competent, trained personnel.

GENERAL INFORMATION

INSTALLATION

1. Check the position of the filter and the clips that fasten the head to the tank.
   Incorrect filter positioning can cause serious damage to the machine.

2. Fit the hose to the vacuum connector; fit the required accessory to the end of the hose. In the case of extractor models fit the pipe on the connector provided on the head and fit the required accessory to the end of the pipe.

3. Connect the power cable of the appliance to the power socket ensure that the switches are “0” (OFF POSITION)

4. For general Non-Hazardous DRY material vacuuming and a bit of WET material vacuuming (typical in auto valeting), ensure the Aqua-dry and the Foam filter is in place. To vacuum liquids, empty the dust from the container, remove the main Aqua-Dry basket filter and ensure the foam filter is fitted.
   After the vacuum has been used for wet use ensure the tank and foam filter is dry before vacuuming dry non-hazardous material.

5. Important: If you are vacuuming a lot of dry nonhazardous material, we advise you to fit the optional High Efficiency FILTER – VTVS7026L, fits over the main basket filter, as shown in the image. This filter must be used for grain store cleaning on farms or in industry where there is fine dust or if your notice your machine losing suction quickly.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation for the machine and the operator
2. Make sure the machine on a sound and stable surface.
3. Ensure the machine is switched to the off position, connect to the correct and sufficient power source, switch machine on, use according to the guidelines and turn machine off, empty and clean after operation.

IMPORTANT

1. The wet and dry machines feature a floating valve that interrupts the vacuum when the tank is full of liquid. When this occurs, turn the machine off and empty the entire contents of the tank.
2. Do not use your machine if it is not functioning correctly. Regularly inspect electrical leads and connections, filters and listen for unusual noises. If in doubt, contact your nearest service centre for advice.

MAINTENANCE

1. The filter element can be vacuum cleaned OR washed with water. Ensure that it is completely dry before the operation.
2. Replace the vacuum filter if it is
3. Check and free the blocked parts (vacuum pipes, connector, brushes, etc.) from any deposited materials.
4. If necessary, clean the tank and in any case, never leave dust or liquid residues in the tank for long periods of time.
5. Ensure all residue material buildup is cleared from the air passages within the vacuum cleaner.
