SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONSSAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, read operating instructions carefully before using.
WARNING: Risk of injection or injury to persons do not direct discharge stream at persons.
WARNING RISK OF ELECTROCUTION:
Connect to a properly grounded outlet. Do not remove ground pin.
Test the ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) before each use.
Grounding Instructions:
THE KAIVAC MUST BE GROUNDED. If it should malfunction or stop working, grounding provides a path of least resistance for the electrical current and reduces the risk of electrical shock. The Kaivac is equipped with a ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI) to further reduce danger and risk of electric shock. It must be maintained and tested regularly.
An equipment grounding cord and plug is included with the unit. Cutting off the ground wire or using a cord with an
ungrounded plug will void the warranty on the Kaivac.
Improper connection of the equipment grounding cord can result in the risk of electrical shock. Ask a qualified electrician or service person to check the outlet grounding if you are unsure. Do not modify the plug provided with the Kaivac.
If it will not fit into the outlet, have a properly grounded outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING: When using this product, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): It is recommended to wear proper personal protective equipment as required
by the chemical product label instructions used in conjunction with the Kaivac.

3.1
MACHINE MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Always make sure machine is unplugged before lifting electric cover assembly
Item
Procedure
Floor
Squeegee
Rough floor surfaces will cause the blades and wheels to wear out more
quickly. Replace as necessary
Spray
Check spray pattern. If spray pattern will not pinpoint, clean orifice by
removing it with an Allen wrench and flushing. Replace if needed.
Pressure
Hose
Check for cuts or frays in the hose jacket, particularly at the end of the
fittings. Replace hose if cuts are found
Water
Tank
Empty the water tank to prevent mildew and bacteria growth. Empty tank
by dipping the vacuum hose into the water tank and transferring the water
to the vacuum tank.
Vacuum Tank
Check the float shutoff screen to be sure it is not plugged up. A plugged
filter screen restricts airflow and results in reduced suction.
Be alert for leaks around hoses, fittings, spray wand, tanks or elsewhere.
Gun
Leaks
Electrical System
The ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) must be tested before each use.
Vacuum Wand
Use a wire brush or coarse brush with acid cleaner or other to remove
residue from threads on the coupling and coupling nut. Apply grease when
done.
