SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electric shock - Do not expose to
rain. Store indoors.
WARNING:
Servicing of double-insulated wet/dry vacuum - With
a double-insulated wet/dry vacuum, two systems
of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No
grounding means is provided on a double-insulated
appliance, nor should a means for grounding be
added. Servicing a double insulated wet/dry vacuum
requires extreme care and knowledge of the system
and should be done only by qualified service personnel.
Replacement parts for a double-insulated wet/dry
vacuum must be identical to the parts they replace. Your
double-insulated wet/dry vac is marked with the words
‘DOUBLE INSULATED’ and the symbol (square within
a square) may also be marked on the appliance.
WARNING:
For your own safety, read and understand the
operator’s manual. Do not run unattended. Do not
pick up hot ashes, coals, toxic, flammable, or other
hazardous materials. Do not use around explosive
liquids or vapors.
CAUTION:
Do not vacuum drywall dust, fireplace soot, or ash
with standard wet/dry filter. This type of dust is very
fine which may not be captured by the filter and cause
damage to motor. When vacuuming fine dust use a fine
dust filter (sold separately).
DOUBLE INSULATED
Grounding not required - When servicing use only
identical replacement parts.
When using as blower:
• Direct air discharge only at work area.
• Do not use Wet/Dry Vacuum as a sprayer.
• Do not direct air at bystanders.
• Keep children away when blowing.
• Wear safety goggles.
