When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed,
including the following: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS APPLI-
ANCE.
WARNING

1. Do not leave appliance when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and
before servicing. Connect to a properly grounded outlet only. See Grounding
Instructions.
2. Do not expose to rain – store indoors.
3. Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or
near children.
4. Use only as described in this manual. Use only Manufacturer's recommended
attachments.
5. Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working as it should,
has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors or dropped into water, contact Shop-
Vac Corporation for assistance.
6. Do Not: pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord or pull
cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run appliance over cord. Keep cord
away from heated surfaces.
7. Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug; not the cord.
8. Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.
9. Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any openings blocked; keep
free of dust, lint, hair and anything that may reduce air flow.
10. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers and all parts of body away from openings and
moving parts.
WARNING
UNIT WHEN NOT IN USE.
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding con-
ductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that
is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING
EQUIPMENT-GROUNDING CONDUCTOR CAN RESULT IN A
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELEC-
TRICIAN OR SERVICE PERSON IF YOU ARE IN DOUBT AS TO
WHETHER THE OUTLET IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. DO NOT
MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED WITH THE APPLIANCE – IF IT
WILL NOT FIT THE OUTLET, HAVE A PROPER OUTLET
INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
When using the appliance at a distance where an extension cord becomes neces-
sary, a 3-conductor grounding cord of adequate size must be used for safety, and to
prevent loss of power and overheating. Use the table below to determine A.W.G. wire
size required. To determine ampere rating of your vacuum, refer to nameplate locat-
ed on rear of motor cover.

11. Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches,
or hot ashes.
12. Do not use without dust bag and/or filters in place.
13. Turn off all controls before unplugging.
14. Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
15. Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in
areas where they may be present.
16. Do not use your cleaner as a sprayer of flammable liquids such as oil base paints,
lacquers, household cleaners, etc.
17. Do not vacuum toxic, carcinogenic, combustible or other hazardous materials such
as asbestos, arsenic, barium, beryllium, lead, pesticides or other health endanger-
ing materials. Specially designed units are available for these purposes.
18. Do not pick up soot, cement, plaster or drywall dust without cartridge filter and
collection filter bag in place. These are very fine particles that may pass through
the foam and affect the performance of the motor or be exhausted back into the
air. Additional collection filter bags are available.
19. Do not leave the cord lying on the floor once you have finished the cleaning job. It
can become a tripping hazard.
20. Use special care when emptying heavily loaded tanks.
21. To avoid spontaneous combustion, empty tank after each use.
22. The operation of a utility vac can result in foreign objects being blown into eyes,
which can result in eye damage. Always wear safety goggles when operating vac-
uum.
23. STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing and use common sense. Do not use vac-
uum cleaner when you are tired, distracted or under the influence of drugs, alco-
hol or medication causing diminished control.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounded plug that
looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A. A temporary adapter that looks like the
adapter illustrated in sketches B and C may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The tem-
porary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can
be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug or the like
extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box
cover. Whenever the adapter is
used, it must be held in place by a
metal screw.
NOTE: IN CANADA, THE USE OF A
TEMPORARY ADAPTER IS NOT
PERMITTED BY THE CANADIAN
ELECTRICAL CODE.
Before using appliance, inspect power cord for loose or exposed wires and damaged
insulation. Make any needed repairs or replacements before using your appliance.
Use only three-wire outdoor extension cords which have three-prong grounding-type
plugs and three-pole receptacles which accept the extension cord's plug. When vac-
uuming liquids, be sure the extension cord connection does not come in contact with
the liquid.
NOTE: STATIC SHOCKS ARE COMMON IN DRY AREAS OR WHEN THE RELATIVE
HUMIDITY OF THE AIR IS LOW. THIS IS ONLY TEMPORARY AND DOES NOT AFFECT THE
150
USE OF THE APPLIANCE. TO REDUCE THE FREQUENCY OF STATIC SHOCKS IN YOUR
HOME, THE BEST REMEDY IS TO ADD MOISTURE TO THE AIR WITH A CONSOLE OR
INSTALLED HUMIDIFIER.
