What is the tank capacity?

The vacuum features a substantial 20-liter tank capacity.

Does it come with different attachments?

Yes, the contents typically include 3 x 345mm plastic tubes, a 1.5m suction hose, a dual-action floor brush, a crevice tool, a foam filter, a cloth filter, and a dust bag.

How long is the power cable?

The power cable is approximately 5 meters long.

Is the vacuum easy to move around?

Yes, it is equipped with castors for easy movability and also includes a carry handle for transportation.

What type of plug does it have?

All electrical items requiring a plug, shipped from the UK, come with a standard 3-pin UK plug unless otherwise stated.

Can I use this for fine dust like plaster dust?

Yes, for fine dust like plaster dust, it is recommended to use the provided dust bag or ensure the cloth filter is clean and properly installed for optimal collection.

Troubleshooting

Vacuum has no power.

Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check the power switch is in the 'on' position.

Reduced suction power.

Check the tank for blockages or if it needs emptying. Inspect the hose and accessories for any obstructions. Clean or replace the filters (foam, cloth, or dust bag).

Vacuum stops during use.

The unit may have an overheat protection mechanism. Allow it to cool down for 15-20 minutes before attempting to restart. Ensure filters are clean and not blocking airflow.

Liquid not being picked up effectively.

Ensure the correct filter (foam filter) is installed for wet use and the dust bag is removed. Check for any blockages in the hose or floor brush.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile for both wet and dry cleaning tasks.
  • Large 20L tank reduces interruption during use.
  • Durable construction suitable for demanding environments.
  • Includes practical features like tool storage and castors.

Cons

  • May require specific Draper vacuum models for optimal fit.
  • Weight (14.6kg) can be considerable for some users, despite castors.
  • Power take-off rating is not applicable, limiting certain applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure the vacuum is unplugged before assembly or cleaning.
  2. Attach the suction hose to the vacuum inlet port.
  3. Connect the desired accessory (e.g., floor brush, crevice tool) to the other end of the suction hose.
  4. If vacuuming dry debris, insert the appropriate filter (cloth or dust bag). If vacuuming liquids, ensure the foam filter is in place and the dust bag is removed.
  5. Check that the tank is securely fitted.
  6. Plug in the vacuum and power it on.

Compatibility:

This vacuum is designed for use with Draper vacuum systems. While it includes a standard 3-pin UK plug, it is recommended to confirm compatibility with your specific Draper vacuum model before use, especially regarding hose and accessory fittings. The brush head itself is a component, not a standalone vacuum.

Care:

  • After Each Use: Empty the tank. If used for dry vacuuming, empty the dust bag or clean the cloth filter. If used for wet vacuuming, dry the tank thoroughly.
  • Filters: Clean the foam filter regularly with water and allow it to dry completely before re-insertion. Replace cloth filters or dust bags when they become excessively dirty or damaged.
  • Hose and Accessories: Check the suction hose and accessories for blockages and clean them as needed. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the exterior of the unit and the tank.
