CAUTION:
NOTE: Static shocks are common in
dry areas or when the relative humidity of
the air is low. Vacuuming fine debris with
your vac can deposit static charge on the
hose or on the Vac. The best remedy to
reduce the frequency of static shocks in
your home or when using this Vac is to add
moisture to the air with a humidifier.
WARNING: Use only extension cords that
are rated for outdoor use. Extension cords
in poor condition or that are too small in

To reduce the risk of these hazards when
using an extension cord, be sure it is in
good condition and that the connection
does not come into contact with liquid. To

following table to choose the minimum
