OperationWARNING

To avoid fire or explosion, do not operate this vac in areas with flammablegases or flammable vapors such as lighter fluid, cleaners, oil*base paints,gasoline, alcohol or explosive dust such as coal, magnesium, grain or gunpowder in the air. Do not vacuum explosive dust, flammable or combustibleliquids or hot ashes. Do not use this vac as a sprayer for any flammable orcombustible liquid. To avoid health hazards from vapors or dusts, do not vac-uum toxic materials. To avoid electrical shock do not expose to rain. Store vacindoors. Unplug power cord before changing or cleaning filter or emptying thedust drum.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of

hearing damage wear ear protectorswhen using the vac or blower foreXtended hours or when using it in anoisy area. The operation of any util-ity vac or blower can result in for-eign objects being blown into theeyes, which can result in severe eyedamage. Always wear safety gogglescomplying with ANSi Z87.1 (shownon Package) before commencingoperation. Safety Goggles are avail-able at Sears retail stores.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this

appliance has a polarized plug (one bladeis wider than the other). This plug will fit ina polarized ouget only one way. If the plugdoes not fit fully in the outlet, reverse theplug If it still does not fit, contact a quali-fied electrician to install the proper outlet.Do not change the plug in any way.NOTE: When using the unit in the vacu-

uming mode, always insert the air diffuserin the exhaust port on the detachable

blower. This breaks up the direct flow ofair and diffuses it.

Vacuuming Dry Materials

1. The filter must be in correct positLon atall times to avoid leaks and possibledamage to vac.

2.When using your vac to pick up veryfine dust, it will be necessary for you toempty the drum and clean the filter atmore frequent intervals to maintainpeak vac performance.

NOTE: A dry filter is necessary to pick updry material. If you use your vac to pick up

dust when the filter is wet, the filter willclog quickly and be very difficult to clean.

3. If your filter is wet but you need to usethe vac to pick up dry material, you canquickly d.ry the filter by running the vacwithout hose attached for about 10 min-utes. The clean air rushing through thevac will help dry the filter.

Vacuuming Liquids

1. When picking up small amounts of Liq-uid the filter may be left in place.

2. When picking up large amounts of liq-uid we recommend that the filter be

removed, if the filter is not removed, itwill become saturated and misting mayappear in the exhaust.

CAUTION: Do not remove the filter

cage or float. It is there to shut off air-f ow when the drum is fu of cluds.

3. After using the vac to pick up ]]quids,the filter must be dried to avoid possiblemildew and damage to the filter.

4.When the liquid in the drum reaches apredetermined level, the float mecha-nism will rise automatically to cut off air-flow. When this happens, turn off thevac, unplug the power cord, and emptythe drum. You will know that the floathas risen because vac aidlow ceases

and the motor noise will become higherin pitch, due to increased motor speed.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to thevac do not run motor with float in raised

position.
