your Wet/Dry vacuum cleaner (“Vac”)
works.

When using your Vac, always follow basic
safety precautions including the following:
WARNING
- To reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock, or injury:
• Read and understand this manual and
all labels on the Wet/Dry Vac before
operating.
• Use only as described in this manual.
• Do not leave Vac running while
unattended - you may fail to notice
important signs indicating abnormal
operation such as loss of suction,
debris/liquid exiting exhaust, or
abnormal motor noises. Immediately
stop using Vac if you notice these
signs.

• Do not leave Vac when plugged in.
Unplug from outlet when not in use and
before servicing.
• Sparks inside the motor can ignite
flammable vapors or dust. To reduce
the risk of fire or explosion, do not use
near combustible liquids, gases, or
dusts, such as gasoline or other fuels,
lighter fluid, cleaners, oil-based paints,
natural gas, coal dust, magnesium
dust, grain dust, aluminum dust, or gun
powder.
• Do not vacuum drywall dust, cold
fireplace ash, or other fine dusts with
standard Filter. These may pass
through the Filter and be exhausted
back into the air. Use a fine dust Filter
instead.
• To reduce the risk of inhaling toxic
vapors, do not vacuum or use near
toxic or hazardous materials.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock,
do not expose to rain or allow liquid to
enter motor compartment. Store
indoors.
• Do not allow to be used as a toy.
Close attention is necessary when
used by or near children.
• Do not use with a torn Filter or without
the Filter installed except when
vacuuming liquids as described in this
manual. Dry Debris ingested by the
impeller may damage the motor or be
exhausted back into the air.
