WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
• Dust extractors have motors and other parts that
can produce sparks during normal use. Do not
use within 30 feet of areas where explosive materi-
als may be present (such as gasoline pumps and
places where liquids like paint thinners, cleaners,
solvents, etc. are stored).
• Do not use in the presence of explosive dust,
liquids or vapors.
• Do not use where oxygen or anesthetics are used.
• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention
is necessary when used by or near children.
• Use extra care when using on stairs.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Do not pick up wet material. Do not use water
to settle dust.
• Do not handle battery pack or dust extractor
with wet hands.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-
tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
• STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing and use
common sense. Do not use dust extractor when you
are tired, distracted or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication causing diminished control.
• The operation of a dust extractor can result in for-
eign objects being blown into eyes, which can result
in eye damage. Always wear safety goggles or glass-
es with side shields when operating dust extractor.
• Wear a dust mask or use an OSHA compliant
dust extraction solution when working in dusty
situations. Dust particles can harm your lungs.
WHEN USING AN
E L E C T R I C A L
• Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment such
as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
• If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can
cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
• Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is
in the off-position before inserting battery pack.
Inserting battery pack in dust extractor that has the
switch on invites accidents.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts
of body away from openings and moving parts.
• Use only as described in this manual. Use only
manufacturer's recommended attachments.
• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the off -position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carry-
ing the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger
on the switch or energizing power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
USE AND CARE
• Do not use without dust box and/or filter in place.
• Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible
liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they
may be present.
• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smok-
ing such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
• Do not pick up soot, cement, plaster or drywall
dust without filter in place. These are very fine
particles that may affect the performance of the
motor or be exhausted back into the air.
• This product is suitable for collection of silica
dust when used in accordance with these in-
structions. To reduce the risk of health hazards
from other vapors or dust, do not vacuum
carcinogenic, toxic or hazardous materials
such as asbestos, arsenic, barium, beryllium, lead,
pesticides or other health endangered materials.
• Use special care when emptying heavily loaded
tanks.
• To avoid spontaneous combustion, empty dust
box after each use.
• Do not leave dust extractor unattended when
battery pack is installed. Remove battery pack
when not in use and before servicing.
• Disconnect the battery pack from the appliance
before making any adjustments, changing ac-
cessories, or storing appliance. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the ap-
pliance accidentally.
• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use
with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint,
hair, and anything else that may reduce air flow.
