INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE PAGE 2

TEST FOR GROUND CONTINUITY BEFORE EACH USE

Test for ground continuity before each use:

a)The compressed airline supplied with the A15EXP machine is impregnated with

carbon for the purpose of transferring static charge to an earth ground source.

Check to insure that there is electrical conductivity between the body of the vacuum

and the hose fitting attached to the compressed airline.

b) Connect the conductive, collection hose to the inlet of the stainless steel

tank and check to insure that there is electrical conductivity between

end of the hose and the tank inlet.

NOTE: This vacuum must be connected to an earth ground source. If the vacuum

cleaner should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of

least resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk of electrical shock.

For added safety, an auxiliary grounding clamp has been included with the machine.

WARNING: If unacceptable results are recorded, DO NOT OPERATE THE CLEANER.

Using the tester, check for continuity between each connection of the vacuum

cleaner (example: tool to wand, wand to hose, hose to machine, etc) If the problem

can not be corrected refer the unit to an AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER ONLY.

WARNING: Insure that the conductive, polyester filter assembly (#25, #26, #27, page 9)

is properly mounted inside the recovery tank. If not, refer to the instructions for

“Replacing the Main Filter” (page 6).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE PAGE 3

“Replacing the Main Filter” (page 6).

MAKING ADJUSTMENTS TO CONTAINER GASKETS

If you suspect the gasket between the Venturi power-head and the filter

chamber is not sealing properly:

1. Loosen latch screws "A" and slide latch downward.

2. Tighten latch screws.

3. Turn on the unit and inspect the seal between the Venturi power-head

and filter chamber.

4. Replace the gasket if the seal continues to leak.

If you suspect the gasket between the filter chamber and the

collection can is not sealing properly:

1. Loosen the screws "A" that lock filter chamber "B" against

the vacuum structure.

2. Lower filter chamber "B" slightly and retighten screws "A".

3. Turn on the unit and inspect the seal between the filter

chamber and the collection can.

4. Replace the gasket if the seal continues to leak.

USING THE VACUUM

CAUTION:

OPERATORS SHOULD TEST THE VACUUM MACHINE .
