WARNING
– DO NOT LEAVE VACUUM UNATTENDED WHEN IT IS PLUGGED IN AND/OR OPERATING. UNPLUG UNIT WHEN NOT IN USE.
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides
a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This
appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding
plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING
– IMPROPER CONNECTION OF THE
EQUIPMENT-GROUNDING CONDUCTOR CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF
ELECTRIC SHOCK. CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN OR SERVICE
PERSON IF YOU ARE IN DOUBT AS TO WHETHER THE OUTLET IS
PROPERLY GROUNDED. DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED WITH THE
APPLIANCE – IF IT WILL NOT FIT THE OUTLET, HAVE A PROPER OUTLET
INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
When using the appliance at a distance where an extension cord becomes necessary, a
3-conductor grounding cord of adequate size must be used for safety, and to prevent loss
of power and overheating. Use the table below to determine A.W.G. wire size required.
To determine ampere rating of your vacuum, refer to nameplate located on rear of motor
cover. Before using appliance, inspect power cord for loose or exposed wires and damaged
insulation. Make any needed repairs or replacements before using your appliance. Use only
three-wire outdoor extension cords which have three-prong grounding-type plugs and three-
pole receptacles which accept the extension cord's plug. When vacuuming liquids, be sure the
extension cord connection does not come in contact with the liquid.
UNPACKING AND SET-UP
1. Pull lid latches in an outward motion, remove tank cover
and any accessories that may have been shipped in the
tank.
2. Attach caster system following the instructions and
illustrations in this manual.
3. Before replacing tank cover, please refer to Dry Pick Up or
Wet Pick Up Operation in this manual to ensure you have
the proper filters installed for your cleaning operation.

12. Do not use without dust bag and/or filters in place.
13. Turn off all controls before unplugging.
14. Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
15. Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in areas
where they may be present.
16. Do not use your cleaner as a sprayer of flammable liquids such as oil base paints,
lacquers, household cleaners, etc.
17. Do not vacuum toxic, carcinogenic, combustible or other hazardous materials such
as asbestos, arsenic, barium, beryllium, lead, pesticides or other health endangering
materials. Specially designed units are available for these purposes.
18. Do not pick up soot, cement, plaster or drywall dust without cartridge filter and collection
filter bag in place. These are very fine particles that may pass through the foam and affect
the performance of the motor or be exhausted back into the air. Additional collection filter
bags are available.
19. Do not leave the cord lying on the floor once you have finished the cleaning job. It can
become a tripping hazard.
20. Use special care when emptying heavily loaded tanks.
21. To avoid spontaneous combustion, empty tank after each use.
22. The operation of a utility vac can result in foreign objects being blown into eyes, which
can result in eye damage. Always wear safety goggles when operating vacuum.
23. STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing and use common sense. Do not use vacuum
cleaner when you are tired, distracted or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication causing diminished control.
24. WARNING! Do NOT use this vacuum cleaner to vacuum lead paint debris because this may
disperse fine lead particles into the air. This vacuum cleaner is not intended for use under
EPA Regulation 40 CFR Part 745 for lead paint material cleanup.
This appliance is for use on a nominal
120-volt circuit, and has a grounded plug
that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch
A. A temporary adaptor that looks like
the adaptor illustrated in sketches B and
C may be used to connect this plug to a
2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if
a properly grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adaptor should be used
only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a qualified electrician.
The green colored rigid ear, lug or the like extending from the adaptor must be connected to
a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adaptor is
used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.
IN CANADA, THE USE OF A TEMPORARY ADAPTOR IS NOT PERMITTED BY THE CANADIAN
ELECTRICAL CODE. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. No adaptor should be used with this appliance.
NOTE: STATIC SHOCKS ARE COMMON
IN DRY AREAS OR WHEN THE RELATIVE
HUMIDITY OF THE AIR IS LOW. THIS IS
ONLY TEMPORARY AND DOES NOT AFFECT
THE USE OF THE APPLIANCE. TO REDUCE
THE FREQUENCY OF STATIC SHOCKS IN
YOUR HOME, THE BEST REMEDY IS TO ADD
MOISTURE TO THE AIR WITH A CONSOLE OR
INSTALLED HUMIDIFIER.
