Dry or Wet, Select the Minuteman X829 Series Vacuum that Best Suits Your Tough Jobs. Simple, easy to use and available in a wide variety of sizes, Minuteman's X829 vacuum series incorporates the latest in technological achievements. Critical cleaning jobs are virtually risk-free. Available in 4,6,5 and 20 gallon tank sizes, these rugged vacuums are virtually indestructible with an innovative polyethylene tank that is noncorrosive and dent-proof. This durable tank has a unique design which allows the operator to handle clean-ing with greater speed, efficiency and safety. Big on performance, the X829 Vacuum Series exceeds government and military standards on particle control by 2.5 times, this means that the x829 Series captures more smaller particles than other competitive H.E.P.A. filter models. All X829 Series vacuums are equipped with a COPOLM® (Copoly Laminated Media) H.E.P.A. filter that is 99.7% efficient at 0.3 microns. Minuteman filters are more resistant to puncture, tears, leaks, abrasions and damage from moisture. EXCLUSIVE FEATURE Patented Microswitch. Minuteman's H.E.P.A. filter features a patented safety interlock system with a unique microswitch. mounted internally, the H.E.P.A. filter protects both the operator and the motor from contamination and prevents damage to the H.E.P.A. filter while the machine is being transported. When operated, if the H.E.P.A. filter is not properly aligned and in place, the vacuum will not start, protecting both the operator and the environment. The tiny microswitch is activated only when this alignment is achieved. Another of Minuteman's unique patented features, the self-sealing intake ensures a positive vacuum seal while still allowing the hose to swivel for maximum cleaning conve-nience. The sure-grip quick release mechanism makes it easy to connect and remove hoses. For flexibility, the intake accomodates 1-1/4", 1-1/2" hoses making it adapt-able to virtually any application. 1:1 Adapter/Water Shut-off: Similar to the X829 Dry Vacuums, the Wet/Dry Vacuum also features a unitized polyethylene adapter, UniAdapter, that quickly attaches to the machine forming a leakproof seal with the vacuum tank below. The Patented UniAdapter is rotational molded for rugged durability so it won't dent, corrode or rust. the UniAdapter fits existing polyethylene, steel and stainless steel H.E.P.A. models converting them to wet/dry cleaning. The one piece design makes wet recovery safer and easier. Top Filling Doubles Cleaning Capacity In addition to increasing safety, the UniAdapter also helps boost the X829's cleaning efficiency, its top filling design more than doubles the vacuum's cleaning capacity to accommodate large disposable 6 mil plastic bags, making emptying less frequent, more convenient and safer. All X829 cloth filters are 100% polyester, nonwoven and are "dimpled" giving it 50% more filtration than a standard, smooth bag. Tool Kit Optional Tool Kit Kit includes: 10 foot crush hose, wand, crevice tool, round dust brush, upholstery tool, brush tool and squeegee floor tool assembly. |

| For higher volume hazardous material recovery. Both Minuteman Twin Motor Vacuums feature powerful Ametek-Lamb motors mounted on a 55 gallon drum lid assembly. Each model includes a single H.E.P.A. fulter using COPOLM (CoPoly Laminated Media), a Minuteman exclusive. In addition, our multiple filter system helps extend the life of the H.E.P.A. filter. As a dry unit, the high CFM combined with the large 55 gallon drum container make either of these units an ideal choice for the safe recovery of most dry, hazardous dusts and nontoxic fine powders, including: lead paint, asbestos dust, silica sand and many others. And when converted to a wet unit, these vacuums can be used for many applications involving contaminated water and other liquids. (wet conversion results in a smaller overall volume pickup ability). As with all Minuteman Critical Filter Vacuums, our H.E.P.A. filters meet all applicable military and ANSI specifications. All H.E.P.A. filters are D.O.P. tested and have an efficiency of 99.99% at 0.12 microns. |

| Minuteman's H.E.P.A. Back Pack Vacuum is lightweight and versatile; it can go virtually anywhere.
Lightweight and portable combined with H.E.P.A. filtration, this is a very versatile vacuum. This critical filter vacuum is ideal for use in applications where there is a need to remove hazardous materials while preventing it's escape into the environment. High productivity, precision and ergonomics combined with HEPA filtration make Minuteman's HEPA back pack vacuum the ultimate in safe and efficient cleanup. The H.E.P.A. BPV features an ergonomic design that produces less operator fatigue than the lightest upright and offers wide padded shoulder and waist straps which adjust to any size user. Lightweight is important; however, the proper distribution of weight makes the machine feel even lighter during operation. This unit rests on the operator's hip to eliminate any discomfort to the shoulders or strain on the back. To aid in movement, the HEPA BPV includes a 50 foot power cord with heavy duty cord restraints, five foot hose, telescopic wand and easy-roll floor tool. This unit is also adaptable for either right or left handed users. The exhaust air is diffused and directed away from the work areas near the base of the machine at 180 degrees instead of top or bottom, thereby eliminating the possibility of blowing papers or raising dust.
