General Safety Rules
Work Area
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Clut-
tered and dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate vacuum cleaners in explo-
sive atmospheres, such as in the presence
of fl ammable liquids, gases, or dust. Appli-
ances create sparks, which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away
while operating the vacuum cleaner. Do not
allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is nec-
essary when used by or near children.
Electrical Safety
This vacuum cleaner intended only for use indoor
and for dry or wet pick-up.
The power tool outlet is grounded and the
vacuum cleaner must be plugged into an
outlet properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all codes and ordinances.
Never remove the grounding prong or modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs. Check with a qualifi ed electrician if
you are in doubt as to whether the outlet
is properly grounded. If the vacuum cleaners
should electrically malfunction or break down,
grounding provides a low resistance path to carry
electricity away from the user.
Do not insert objects like paper clips or
screwdrivers into power tool outlet. The
outlet is live when the vacuum cleaner is plugged
into power source and switch is set to power tool
activation mode or fi lter cleaning mode. Electric
shock may occur.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrig-
erators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is grounded. If operating the
vacuum cleaner in damp locations is unavoid-
able; a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter must be
used to supply the power to your vacuum cleaner.
Electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear will fur-
ther enhance your personal safety.
Don’t expose vacuum cleaner to rain or wet
conditions. This vacuum cleaner can be used
for picking up non-fl ammable liquids but it is not
intended to be immersed or submerged in a fl uid.
Electric shock may occur.
Do not handle plug or appliance with wet
hands. Electric shock may occur.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to
carry the vacuum cleaner, pull the vacuum
cleaner or yank the plug from an outlet.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges
or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Don’t drive over it or close a
door on it. Damaged cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
When operating a vacuum cleaner outside,
use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-
A” or “W”. These cords are rated for outdoor
use and reduce the risk of electric shock. Refer
to Recommended sizes of Extension Cords in the
Accessory section of this manual.
