SAFETY

WARNING! Read all instructions before using 
vacuum. Read operator's manual, battery 
pack and charger operator's manuals and all 
labels on vacuum, battery pack and charger. 

WARNING! When using an electrical vacuum, 
basic precautions should always be followed, 
including the following:

WORK AREA SAFETY

•   Keep work area clean and well-lit.

•  Do not use within 30 feet of areas where explosive 

materials may be present (such as gasoline 

pumps and places where liquids like paint thinners, 

cleaners, solvents, etc. are stored).

•   Do not use in the presence of explosive dust, liquids 

or vapors.

•  Do not use where oxygen or anesthetics are used.

•  Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is 

necessary when used by or near children.

•  Use extra care when using on stairs.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

•  Wear electrically insulated footwear, such as rubber 

boots, when vacuuming wet material.

•  Do not handle battery pack or vacuum with wet 

hands.

•  Store indoors. Do not expose to rain.

PERSONAL SAFETY

•  Stay alert. Do not use vacuum when tired, distracted 

or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or 

medication causing diminished control.

•   The operation of a vacuum can result in foreign 

objects being blown into eyes, which can result in 

eye damage. Always wear safety goggles or glasses 

with side shields when operating vacuum.

•  Wear a face or dust mask when working in dust 

situations. Dust particles can harm lungs.

•  Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the 

off position before inserting battery pack. Inserting 

battery pack in vacuum that has the switch on can 

cause accidents.

•  Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and 

balance at all times. This enables better control of 

the vacuum in unexpected situations.

•  Never stand on vacuum or use as a step stool.

•  Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers and all parts of 

body away from openings and moving parts.

•  Use only as described in these instructions. Use only 

manufacturer's recommended attachments.

USE AND CARE

•   Do not use without tank and/or filter properly 

installed.

•  Do not use to vacuum flammable or combustible 

liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they 

may be present.

•  Do not vacuum anything that is burning or smoking 

such as cigarettes, matches or hot ashes.
