Operation

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, or damage to Vac:
!
• 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 plugged-in when not in use.
• Do not continue running when float has cut off suction.
• Do not operate Vac in areas with flammable gases, vapors or explosive dust
in the air. Sparks inside the motor can ignite airborne flammables.
Flammable gases and vapors include: lighter fluid, solvent-type cleaners,
oil-based paints, gasoline, alcohol, or aerosol sprays. Flammable dusts
include: coal, magnesium, aluminum, grain, or gun powder.
• Do not vacuum up explosive dusts, flammable liquids, or hot ashes.
• Do not use Vac as a sprayer.
!
• Do not expose to rain or allow liquid to enter motor compartment.
Store indoors.
• Do not handle plug, switch, or Vac with wet hands.
• Do not service Vac while it is plugged-in. If your Vac is not working as it
should, has missing parts, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or
dropped into water, return it to an independent service center or call
customer service.
• When using an extension cord, use only outdoor-rated cords that are in
good condition. Do not allow the connection to come into contact with
liquid.
• Do not vacuum toxic materials to reduce the risk of inhaling the vapors or
dust.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, all
models have a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other). This plug will fit
in a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not change the plug in
any way.
After you plug the power cord into the
outlet, turn the unit on by pushing the
switch from position "O" to position "l". The
symbols used on the switch actuator are
international "On & Off" symbols. "O" is the
symbol for "OFF" and "l" is the symbol for
"ON".
= OFF
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or injury:
= ON
