IMPORTA T SAFETY I STRUCTIO S
Safety is a combination of using common
sense, staying alert, and knowing how your
Wet/Dry vacuum cleaner (“Vac”) works.
Safety Signal Words
DA GER: Indicates a hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, will result
in death or serious injury.
WAR I G: Indicates a hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
CAUTIO : Indicates a hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could
result in minor or moderate injury.
When using your Vac, always follow basic
safety precautions including the following:
WAR I G
- To reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, or injury:
• Read and understand this manual and
all labels on the Vac before operating.
• Use only as described in this manual.
• Do not leave Vac running while
unattended - you may fail to notice
important signs indicating abnormal
operation such as loss of suction,
debris/liquid exiting exhaust, or
abnormal motor noises. Immediately
stop using Vac if you notice these
signs.
• Do not leave Vac when plugged in.
Unplug from outlet when not in use and
before servicing.
• Electric shock hazard - do not place
and operate vacuum in standing water.
!
!
!
!
• Sparks inside the motor can ignite
flammable vapors or dust. To reduce
the risk of fire or explosion, do not use
near combustible liquids, gases, or
dusts, such as gasoline or other fuels,
lighter fluid, cleaners, oil-based paints,
natural gas, coal dust, magnesium dust,
grain dust, aluminum dust, or gun
powder.
• Do not vacuum anything that is burning
or smoking, such as cigarettes,
matches, or hot ashes.
• Do not vacuum drywall dust, cold
fireplace ash, or other fine dusts with
standard filter. These may pass through
the filter and be exhausted back into
the air. Use a fine dust filter instead.
• To reduce the risk of inhaling toxic
vapors, do not vacuum or use near
toxic or hazardous materials.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock,
do not expose to rain or allow liquid to
enter motor compartment.
Store indoors.
• This Wet/Dry Vac is not intended for
use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory, or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
• Do not allow to be used as a toy.
Close attention is necessary when
used by or near children.
• Do not use with a torn filter or without
filter installed except when vacuuming
liquids as described in this manual.
Dry debris ingested by the impeller may
damage the motor or be exhausted into
the air.

accidental starting, unplug power cord
before changing or cleaning filter.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord.
To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

• This Vac is double-insulated, eliminating
the need for a separate grounding
system. Use only identical replacement
parts. Read the instructions for
Servicing Double-Insulated Wet/Dry
Vacs.
• Do not put any object into ventilation
openings. Do not vacuum with any
ventilation openings blocked; keep free
of dust, lint, hair or anything that may
reduce air flow.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all
parts of body away from openings and
moving parts.
• To reduce the risk of falls, use extra
care when cleaning on stairs.
• To reduce the risk of back injury or falls,
do not lift a Vac that is heavy with liquid
or debris. Partially empty by scooping
debris or draining liquid.
• To reduce the risk of personal injury or
damage to Vac, use only Ridgid
recommended accessories.

Wet/Dry Vac Assembly/Disassembly
Disassembly
1. Remove the drum from the power
base by first sliding the drum lock from
the right to the left. This lock is located
on the front of the unit just above the
power switch, between the grey
portion of the drum and the power
base.
2. Lift up on the drum, using the lift
handle found on the lid of the drum.
Allowing the front of the drum to
come up first will cause the drum to
smoothly and properly disengage
from the power base.
3. With the drum sitting on the ground,
pull up on the lid latch handles found
on the left and right side of the drum.
Rotate the latches away from the lid.
4. Remove the lid from the drum
assembly and place it in a safe
location.
ote: The filter has remained in the drum
and will remain there throughout the
emptying process keeping the collected
debris confined to the drum.

onto the power base, engaging the
power base hook with the back of the
drum.
4. Lower the front of the drum onto the
power base.
5. Slide the drum lock from left to right to
securely lock the drum in place.

the power base, this lock will not engage
properly and the power switch may not
operate.
