vacuuming liquids as described in this
manual. Dry debris ingested by the
impeller may damage the motor or be
exhausted back into the air.
• Turn off Vac before unplugging.
• To reduce the risk of injury from
accidental starting, unplug power cord
before changing or cleaning filter.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord.
To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
• Do not use with damaged cord, plug or
other parts. If your Vac is not working as
it should, has missing parts, has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or
dropped into water, call customer
service.
• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as
handle, close a door on cord, or pull
cord around sharp edges or corners.
Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not handle plug, switch, or the Vac
with wet hands.
• Use only extension cords that are rated
for outdoor use and have a grounding
conductor. Extension cords in poor
condition or too small in wire size can
pose
fire
To reduce the risk of these hazards,
be sure the cord is in good condition
and that the liquid does not contact the
connection. Do not use an extension
cord with conductors smaller than
16 gauge (AWG) in size. To reduce
power loss, use a 14 gauge extension
cord if 25 to 50 ft. long and 12 gauge for
50 ft. or longer.
• Connect only to a properly-grounded
outlet. See grounding instructions.
• Do not put any object into ventilation
openings. Do not vacuum with any
ventilation openings blocked; keep free
of dust, lint, hair or anything that may
reduce air flow.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all
parts of body away from openings and
