5. Set container upright, on its wheels.
NOTE: If the Vacuum Cleaner is to be used to pick-up liquid or wet
material, skip step 6.
6. Install the paper filter bag. Please note that the mounting hole is offset in
the bag. The hole is closest to the top side of the bag. Position the bag
(into the container), with its top side up, and seat mounting hole onto
the container’s intake port. NOTE: Press only on the bag’s protective
card. Be careful to not tear the bag.
7. Place the motor unit onto the container and secure it by closing the two
container Locks.
8. Attach the vacuum hose to the
machine (Fig. 3). The Hose is
equipped with a bayonet style
connector. Align the projection
on the side of the Hose
connector with the slot in the
Container intake port. Slide
connector into intake port and
rotate one-quarter turn
clockwise to lock.
NOTE: Models 7812 and 7814 Vacuum Cleaners are equipped with
a Static Dissipating System that can help dissipate static electrical
charges (sometimes experienced when recovering very dry,
powdered materials), when used with a Static Dissipating type
vacuum hose. The hose that comes with your unit is NOT a
static dissipating hose. To install a Static Dissipating type hose
will require removal of the bayonet connector from the standard
hose, and installation (of the bayonet connector), onto the Static
Dissipating hose, as follows:
A. Depress locking tab (A) Fig. 4A and pull collar (B) out of the
bayonet connector slightly.
B. Rotate the assembly 180° and depress the second locking tab,
allowing the bayonet connector to be separated from the hose
assembly.
C. Grasp hose in one hand and mounting hub (C) Fig. 4B in the
other. Rotate the mounting hub clockwise (left-hand thread) to
remove it from the hose.
D. Slide the collar (B) off the standard hose and position it onto the
Static Dissipating hose.
E. Thread the mounting hub (C) onto the Static Dissipating hose
(by turning it counterclockwise).
F. Place the bayonet connector onto the mounting hub and
position the collar (B), so that its locking tabs align with the
holes in the bayonet connector.
G. Press the collar into the bayonet connector until the two locking
tabs engage the holes in the bayonet connector.
9. Attach the Vacuum Hose to the appropriate accessory nozzle, or to the
dust port of a power tool.
