COOKING Place the cooker on high heat until the Pressure Control begins to release steam. The Pressure Control will rock or jiggle when the cooker reaches its pressure. Lower the heat so that the pressure control rocks gently. Generally a setting of `medium` or `low` will be right.
These canners not only have a dial gauge on top of the lid, they also have a removable, weighted regulator as well. This regulator weight usually has three settings: 5, 10, and 15 pounds. The weight is what you use to determine pressure– the dial is just a back-up in this case.
Place the pressure control weight on the steam port in the top center of the lid to pressurize the Mirro canner. The weight will start to jiggle when the unit is pressurized. The gauge should also indicate the pressure level.
To Use a Steam Canner:

Place the rack in the bottom of the canner and fill with water until just over the rack. Preheat water. Once preheated, place jars in canner and secure the lid. Process in pure steam at 210-212 degrees F for the recommended time.

Inside the tightly sealed pressure cooker, the water is heated and eventually boils into steam. Since the steam cannot escape, it collects above the food. All those trapped water molecules increase the pressure inside the cooker.
Mirro: The month and year your cooker was made, if it`s stamped into the metal, will appear as a fraction (see figure a). Not all mirro cooker and canners have dates stamped onto their body (slightly to the left of the center on the bottom of the pot).
The rule they give is that a pressure canner load must consist of at least 2 quart (litre) jars OR 4 pint (half-litre) jars. To ensure proper pressure and temperature is achieved for safe processing, you must process at least 2 quart or 4 pint jars in the pressure canner at one time.”
Place pressure regulator firmly on the vent pipe. Heat the pressure cooker until the pressure regulator begins to rock slowly. Adjust heat to maintain a slow, steady rocking motion. Cooking time begins at this point.

Need instructions for 8qt pressure cooker, model 65999. All it has on lid is a dial which says ‘open’, ‘low’, & ‘high’. If it had a pressure guage it wouldn’t be a problem, but I have never worked with a pressure cooker with a low – high dial. Please advise.

I do not have my users manual and have never vacuumed wet with this vacuum. How do I change it from a dry to wet vacuum.
Can’t find my manual and I need to use the shop vac for water in basement, do I have to change the filter or what
lost my user manual never used it to pick up water. need to know how to puit it in wet mode i want to clean the dirty water out of my pool.
ANSWER : .Vacuuming Liquids
.1. When picking up small amounts of liquid
.the filter may be left in place.
.2. When picking up large amounts of liquid
.we recommend that the filter be
.removed. If the filter is not removed, it
.will become saturated and misting
.may appear in the exhaust.
.3. After using the vac to pick up liquids,
.the filter must be dried to reduce the
.risk of possible mildew and damage to
.the filter.
.4. When the liquid in the drum reaches a
.predetermined level, the float mechanism
.will rise automatically to cut off
.airflow. When this happens, turn off
.the vac, unplug the power cord, and
.empty the drum. You will know that the
.float has risen because vac airflow
.ceases and the motor noise will
.become higher in pitch, due to
.increased motor speed.
.IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of damage
.to the vac do not run motor with float
.in raised position
