SUCKING UP SPILLS
If your washing machine floods or the deep freeze has been
defrosted, leaving pools of water about, your VAX can help.
1 Set up for washing, but don’t connect the
transparent tube or its trigger, or put water or
cleaning solution in the clean water bucket
If the spill is soapy, VAX Defoamer will be required in the dirty
bucket. VAX Defoamer is available from your VAX Service Agent or
from VAXdirect.
2 Use the metal extension tubes or connect the
washing tools directly to the hand grip
3 Turn the suction power to maximum and switch on
4 Suck up the spill
The ‘sound’ your VAX makes will change and the
suction will drop when the dirty water bucket is full.
Time to empty it!
