Operation
Ak WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, do not operate this vac in areas with flamma-
ble gases, vapors or explosive dust in the air. Flammable gases or vapors include
but are not limited to; lighter fluid, solvent type cleaners, oil-base paints, gasoline,
alcohol or aerosol sprays. Explosive dusts include but are not limited to; coal, mag-
nesium, aluminum, grain or gun powder. Do not vacuum explosive dust, flammable
or combustible liquids or hot ashes. Do not use this vac as a sprayer.
To reduce the risk of health hazards from vapors or dusts, do not vacuum toxic
materials.
,_k WARNING: Always wear safety
eyewear complying with ANSI Z87.1
(or in Canada, CSA Z94.3) before
starting operation. Safety eyewear are
available at many local retail stores.
The operation of any utility vac can
result in foreign objects being blown
into the eyes, which can result in
severe eye damage.
Vacuuming
Dry Materials
1. The filter must always be in correct
position to reduce the risk of leaks and
possible damage to vac.
2. 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.
,_k CAUTION: To reduce risk of hear-
ing damage, wear ear protectors when
using the vac for extended hours or
when using it in a noisy area.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance 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 "O" to position "1".
The symbols used on the switch actuator
are international
"On & Off" symbols. "O"
is the symbol for "OFF" and "1" is the
symbol for "ON".
= OFF
I = ON
,_ WARNING: To reduce the risk of
fire or electric shock, do not run vac
unattended.
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.
3. If your filter is wet but you need to use
the vac to pick up dry material, you can
quickly dry the filter by running the vac
without hose attached for about
10 minutes. The clean air rushing
through the vac will help dry the filter.
The optional Craftsman HEPA Rated
Material Filter, stock number 9-17912 will
do a better job stopping very fine parti-
cles than the 9-17816 filter.
Vacuuming
Liquids
_
CAUTION:
Do not remove the filter
cage or float. It is there to shut off air-
flow when the drum is full of 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, it
will become saturated and misting may
appear in the exhaust.
