All electrical repairs to this unit, including
housing, switch, motor, etc., must be
diagnosed and repaired by qualified ser­
vice personnel. Replacement parts for a
double insulated appliance must be
identical to the parts they replace. A

and result in serious injury.
UNIT/MAINTENANCE SAFETY
• Do not set the unit on any surface ex­
cept a clean, hard area while the unit
is running. Debris such as gravel,
sand, dust, grass, etc., could be
picked up by the air intake and thrown
out through the discharge opening,
damaging the unit, property, or caus­
ing serious injury to bystanders or op­
erator.
• Do not overreach or use from unstable
surfaces such as ladders, trees, steep
slopes, rooftops, etc. Use extra care
when cleaning on stairways. Keep
firm footing and balance at all times.
Keep hands out of tubes.
• Inspect the entire unit before each use
for worn, loose, missing, or damaged
parts. Do not use until the unit is in
proper working order.
