• 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 anything that is burning or
smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or
hot ashes.
• To avoid the risk of ignition of drum
debris, empty drum after each use.
Combustible materials, such as rags or
sawdust containing stain or urethane, can
be a source of such overheating.
• 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 into
the air.
