Operation
_,
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, or damage to Vac:
• Do not leave Vac running while unattended - you may fail to notice important signs
indicating abnormal operation such as loss of suction, debris/liquid exiting
exhaust, or abnormal motor noises.
Immediately stop using Vac if you notice
these signs.
• Do not leave Vac plugged-in when not in use.
• Do not continue running when float has cut off suction.
• Do not operate Vac in areas with flammable gases, vapors or explosive dust in the
air. Sparks inside the motor can ignite airborne flammables.
Flammable gases
and vapors include:
lighter fluid, solvent-type cleaners, oil-based paints, gasoline,
alcohol, or aerosol sprays. Flammable dusts include: coal, magnesium,
aluminum, grain, or gun powder.
• Do not vacuum up explosive dusts, flammable liquids, or hot ashes.
• Do not use Vac as a sprayer.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or injury:
• Do not expose to rain or allow liquid to enter motor compartment.
Store indoors.
• Do not handle plug, switch, or Vac with wet hands.
• Do not service Vac while it is plugged-in.
If your Vac is not working as it should,
has missing parts, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into
water, return it to an independent service center or call customer service.
• When using an extension cord, use only outdoor-rated cords that are in good
condition. Do not allow the connection to come into contact with liquid.
• Do not vacuum toxic materials to reduce the risk of inhaling the vapors or dust.
Polarized
Plug
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
Vac has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). This plug will fit in a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install the proper
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
After you plug the power cord into the
outlet, turn the unit on by pushing the
switch from position "0" to position "1".
The symbols used on the switch actuator
are international "On & Off" symbols:
Vacuuming
Dry Materials
1. The filter must always be in correct
position to reduce the risk of leaks and
possible damage to Vac.
2. Your Wet/Dry Vac comes with the
17907 Filter installed. When using your
Vac to pick up very fine dust, it will be
necessary for you to empty the drum
and clean the filter at more frequent
intervals to maintain peak Vac
performance.
NOTE: A dry filter is necessary to pick up
dry material. If you use your Vac to pick
up dust when the filter is wet, the filter will
clog quickly and be very difficult to clean.
