before servicing. Connect to a properly grounded outlet only. See Grounding
Instructions.

Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near
children.
4.
Use only as described in this manual. Use only Manufacturer’s recommended attach-
ments.
5.
Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working as it should, has
been dropped, damaged, left outdoors or dropped into water, return it to a service
center.
6.
Do Not: pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord or pull cord
around sharp edges or corners. Do not run appliance over cord. Keep cord away from
heated surfaces.
7.
Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug; not the cord.
8.
Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.
9.
Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any openings blocked; keep free
of dust, lint, hair and anything that may reduce air flow.
10. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.
11. Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches or hot ashes.
12. Do not use without dust bag and/or filters in place.
13. Turn off all controls before unplugging.
14. Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
15. Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in
areas where they may be present.
16. Do not use your cleaner as a sprayer of flammable liquids such as oil base paints, lac-
quers, household cleaners, etc.
17. Do not vacuum toxic, carcinogenic, combustible or other hazardous materials such as
asbestos, arsenic, barium, beryllium, lead, pesticides or other health endangering
materials. Specially designed units are available for these purposes.
18. Do not pick up soot, cement, plaster or drywall dust without cartridge filter and col-
lection filter bag in place. These are very fine particles that may pass through the foam
and affect the performance of the motor or be exhausted back into the air. Additional
collection filter bags are available (see enclosed order form).
19. Do not leave the cord lying on the floor once you have finished the cleaning job. It can
become a tripping hazard.
20. Use special care when emptying heavily loaded tanks.
21. To avoid spontaneous combustion, empty tank after each use.
22. The operation of a utility vac can result in foreign objects being blown into eyes, which
can result in eye damage. Always wear safety goggles when operating vacuum.
23. STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing and use common sense. Do not use vacuum
cleaner when you are tired, distracted or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or med-
ication causing diminished control.
