• Do not use this Wet/Dry Vacuum with a torn filter or without installing the filter except when vacuuming 

liquids as described in the operation section of this manual.

• Do not use the Wet/Dry Vacuum as a toy. Pay particularly close attention when it is being used by or near 

children.

• To reduce the risk of injury from the Wet/Dry Vacuum accidentally starting, unplug the power cord before 

changing or cleaning the filter.

when not in use and before servicing. Turn off the Wet/Dry Vacuum before unplugging.

• Do not put any objects into the ventilation openings. Do not vacuum with any ventilation openings 

blocked.

• Keep free of dust, lint, hair or any other items that may reduce the air flow.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all body parts away from openings and moving parts.
• To reduce the risk of falling, use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

This Wet/Dry Vacuum is double-insulated, eliminating the need for a separate grounding system. Use only 
identical replacement parts. Read the servicing instructions before servicing the Wet/Dry Vacuum.
Use this Wet/Dry Vacuum only as described in this manual.
Observe the following warnings that appear on the motor housing of this Wet/Dry Vacuum.

DOUBLE-INSULATED. GROUNDING NOT REQUIRED. 

WHEN SERVICING USE ONLY IDENTICAL 

REPLACEMENT PARTS.

SAFETY WARNINGS

CAUTION! 

Do not vacuum drywall dust or cold fireplace soot or ash with a standard wet/dry 
filter. This dust is very fine and hence will not be captured by the filter and may 
cause damage. Refer to the operation section for proper filter selection.

WARNING! 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose to rain. Store indoors.

CAUTION! 

To reduce the risk of injury from moving parts, unplug before servicing.

WARNING! 

For your own safety, read and understand this instruction manual. Do not operate 
unattended. Do not use this Wet/Dry Vacuum to pick up hot ashes, coals, toxic, 
fammable or other hazardous materials. Do not use near explosive liquids or 
vapours.

SERVICING OF DOUBLE-INSULATED WET/DRY VACUUM.
In a double-insulated Wet/Dry Vacuum, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. 
No method of grounding is provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should one 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 that are being replaced. This Wet/Dry Vacuum 
is marked with the words ‘DOUBLE INSULATED’ and the symbol       may also be marked on the 
appliance.

• For household use only.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug before cleaning or servicing.
• DO NOT use without filters in place.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, use indoors only.

POLARIZATION
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). 
This plug will  fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not  fit fully in the outlet, reverse the 
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the 
plug in any way. Double insulation       eliminates the need for a three-wire, grounded power cord and 
grounded power supply system.
