not charge the battery pack or appliance

outside of the temperature range

speciﬁed in the instructions. Charging

improperly or at temperatures outside of

the speciﬁed range may damage the battery

and increase the risk of ﬁre.

• Have servicing performed by a qualiﬁed

repair person using only identical

replacement parts. This will ensure that

the safety of the product is maintained.

• Do not modify or attempt to repair the

appliance or the battery pack except as

indicated in the instructions for use and

care.

Before using the vacuum the flexible hose will need to be

attached.

• Ensure the vacuum is placed on a flat, firm surface.

• Unlatch tank latches and remove power head from the tank.

• Remove the hose from the tank.

• Align the latching end of the hose with the intake or blower

port on the appliance, ensuring the alignment lock is

correctly orientated to fit into the port.

• Insert the hose end into the port until you hear an audible

click. Gently pull the hose end to ensure it is correctly

secured.

• Replace power head onto the tank and secure latches.

Note: The power head will only fit onto the tank when the

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, do not operate

this vac in areas with flammable gases, vapors or explosive

dust in the air. Flammable gases or vapors include but are not

limited to: lighter fluid, solvent-type cleaners, oil-based paints,

gasoline, alcohol or aerosol sprays. Explosive dusts include

but are not limited to: coal, magnesium, aluminium, and grain

or gun powder. Do not vacuum explosive dust, flammable or

combustible liquids or hot ashes. Do not use this vac as a sprayer

for any flammable or combustible liquid. To reduce the risk

of health hazards from vapors or dusts, do not vacuum toxic

materials.

CAUTION: To reduce risk of hearing damage, wear ear protectors

when using the vac for extended hours or when using it in a

noisy area. This 11L wet/dry vac is assembled at the factory and

ready for use when you remove it from the packaging. The unit is

ready for dry vacuuming or blowing.

ON/OFF

After you insert the battery into the machine, turn the unit “ON”

by pushing the switch from position “O” to position “I”. The “O” is

the “OFF” position and the “I” is the “ON” position.

DRY PICK UP

NOTE: If foam filter is in position over filter cage, it must be

removed before installing cartridge filter. The cartridge filter can

be used for wet or dry pick up; installation is the same for both.

When picking up large quantities of liquid please refer to the wet

pick up operation section in this manual. Use the cartridge filter

in position over the filter cage for most general dry material pick

up. (Fig. 2)

FIG. 1

www.evolutionpowertools.com

FIG. 4

FIG. 3

FLOAT IN RAISED POSITION

FIG. 5

• With the power head in an upside down position, slide the

cartridge filter down over the filter cage, push the filter seals

against the power head.

• Place filter retainer into the top of the cartridge filter, hold

the power head with one hand, turn the handle on the filter

retainer clockwise to tighten, locking the filter into place.

• To remove the cartridge filter for cleaning, again hold the

power head and turn the filter retainer counter-clockwise

to loosen and remove, slide the cartridge filter off the filter

cage.

• To clean the cartridge filter shake or brush off excess dirt or

rinse (from the inside of the filter) with water, dry completely

(approximately 24 hours) and re-install.

WET PICK UP

• Remove cartridge filter and replace it with foam filter when

you do wet pickups.

• This wet/dry vac is equipped with a float mechanism which

will rise automatically to cut off the airflow when the liquid in

the tank reaches a predetermined level. When this happens,

turn off the vac, remove the battery, and empty the dust

tank. You will know that the float has shut the airflow off

because the suction ceases and the motor noise becomes

higher in pitch due to increased motor speed. The liquid

capacity may vary with the rate of pickup. (Fig. 3)

EMPTYING THE TANK

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from accidental starting,

remove the battery before emptying the dust tank.

• Remove the power head assembly of the wet/dry vac by

pulling outward on the lid clips located on each side of the

vac. Lift off the power head assembly. (Fig. 4)

• Dump the tank contents into the proper waste disposal

container.

BLOWING OPERATION

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from accidental starting,

remove the battery before changing. To avoid injury to bystanders,

keep them clear of blowing debris.

CAUTION: Wear a dust mask if blowing creates dust which

might be inhaled. To reduce the risk of hearing damage, wear ear

protectors when using the vac/blower for extended hours or when

using it in a noisy area.

Your vac contains a blowing feature. It has the capability to blow

sawdust and other debris. It can be used to blow dust and debris

out of garages or off patios and driveways. Follow the steps below

to use your vac as a blower.

• Locate blowing port on your vac.

• Insert one end of the hose into the blowing port. (Fig. 5)

• Turn vac “ON”.

www.evolutionpowertools.com

FILTER REPLACEMENT

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from

accidental starting, remove the battery from the

machine before changing or cleaning filter. Your

filter should be cleaned often to maintain peak

vacuum performance.

NOTE: To avoid damage to the fan and motor,

always reinstall the reusable dry filter before

using the vacuum for dry pickups and always

reinstall the foam filter before using the vacuum

for wet pickups.

NOTE: After cleaning, check the filter for

tears or small holes. Do not use a filter with

holes or tears in it. Even a small hole can cause

dust to come out of your vacuum. Replace it

immediately.

NOTE: Before installing the filter on the

vacuum, clean the area of the lid so that the

clamp ring will seal the bag against the lid and

stop small particles from bypassing the filter

bag. If the filter is clean and not damaged,

replace it on the filter cage. If it cannot be

reused, place a new filter over the filter cage.

NOTE: Clean the filter in an open area.

WARNING: Do not remove filter cage and float.

The float prevents water from entering the

impeller and damaging the motor. The cage

prevents fingers from touching the moving

impeller.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Any maintenance must be carried

out with the machine switched off and the

battery removed.

CLEANING

To keep your wet/dry vacuum looking its best,

clean the outside with a cloth dampened with

warm water and mild soap. To clean the tank:

• Empty the tank.

• Wash tank thoroughly with warm water

and mild soap.

• Wipe out with dry cloth.

STORAGE

Before storing your vacuum, the dust tank

should be emptied and cleaned. The accessories

should be kept in the accessory holder so they

can be readily available. The vacuum should be

stored indoors.
