IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert, and knowing how your wet/dry vacuum cleaner (“Vac”) works.

Safety Signal Words

!DANGER: Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

!WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

!CAUTION: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury, or property damage.

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 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.

•Sparks inside the motor can ignite flammable vapors or dust. To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, do not vacuum or use near flammable or 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 anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.

•Do not vacuum drywall dust, cold fireplace ash, or other fine dusts, which may pass through the bag filter and be exhausted back into the air.

•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.

•WARNING: The power cord on this product contains lead, a chemical known in the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
