OPERATION
The Porter-Cable Power Tool-Triggered Wet/Dry Vac is designed for use as
a general purpose shop vacuum, or for use connected to various power
tools. With the dust bag removed, it can be used to pick up water and other
wet materials.
A power outlet is provided that allows a power tool to be connected to the
Vacuum Cleaner. The Vacuum Cleaner will automatically switch “ON” when
the power tool is started, and it will automatically switch “OFF”
approximately 6 to 10 seconds after the power tool is turned “OFF”.
POWER SWITCH
The power switch (A) Fig. 5 on both the 7812 and 7814 models is used for
the Vacuum Cleaner as a stand alone unit. When not using a power tool,
depress power switch (A) Fig. 5 to begin vacuuming.
These vacuums can be used to provide a dust-free environment when
attached to a power tool. An accessory outlet is located under a hinged
cover (B) Fig. 5 on the front of the vacuum cleaner. Lift this cover to expose
the outlet.
Connect the power cord of the
power tool to outlet (B) Fig. 5, then
depress power switch (A) Fig. 5 on
the vacuum cleaner. A green light,
located next to the outlet, will glow.
This light indicates that the vacuum
will start automatically when the
power tool is activated.
When the power tool is turned off,
the vacuum motor will continue to
run for 6 to 10 seconds to finish
collecting the dust, and then it will
stop.
