SAFETY GUIDELINES

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL

INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS

VACUUM.

Read and understand this owner’s manual and all labels on the wet/dry vacuum

cleaner before operating. Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and

knowing how your vacuum works. Use this wet/dry vacuum only as described in this

manual. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to your wet/dry vacuum, use

only manufacturer-recommended accessories.

SAVE THIS MANUAL

FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

When using a vacuum, basic precautions should always be followed, including the

following:

Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in explosion, ﬁre and/or

serious injury.

• Do not run vacuum unattended.

• Do not use without ﬁlters in place.

• Do not use to pick up ﬂammable or combustible liquids, such as gasoline, or use in

areas where they may be present.

• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches,

or hot ashes. To reduce the risk of health hazards from vapours or dusts, do not

vacuum toxic materials.

• Do not use or store near hazardous materials.

• If vacuum is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or

dropped into water, return it to a service centre.

• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near

children.

• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep

free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce airﬂow.

• Keep hair, loose clothing, ﬁngers, and all parts of body away from openings and

moving parts.

• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

• Do not handle vacuum, charger, charger plug, or charger terminals with wet hands.

• Turn off all controls before removing the battery pack.

• Turn off the vacuum and remove the battery pack before connecting the hose or

other accessories.

• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before

connecting to battery pack, picking up or carrying the vacuum. Carrying the vacuum

with your ﬁnger on the switch or energizing vacuum that has the switch on invites

accidents.

Store indoors.

CAUTION!

To reduce the risk of injury from moving parts, disconnect

battery pack before cleaning or servicing.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of ﬁre or explosion, disconnect battery pack

before cleaning or servicing.

• Disconnect the battery pack from the vacuum before making any adjustments,

changing accessories, or storing vacuum. Such preventive safety measures reduce

the risk of starting the vacuum accidentally.

• Recharge only with the charger speciﬁed by the manufacturer. A charger that is

suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of ﬁre when used with

another battery pack.

• Use vacuum only with speciﬁcally designated battery packs. Use of any other

battery packs may create a risk of injury and ﬁre.

• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper

clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that can make a

connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together

may cause burns or a ﬁre.

• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If

contact accidentally occurs, ﬂush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally

seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

• Do not use a battery pack or vacuum that is damaged or modiﬁed. Damaged or

modiﬁed batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in ﬁre, explosion or

risk of injury.

• Do not expose a battery pack or vacuum to ﬁre or excessive temperature. Exposure

to ﬁre or temperature above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.

• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or vacuum

outside of the temperature range speciﬁed in the instructions. Charging improperly

or at temperatures outside of the speciﬁed range may damage the battery and

increase the risk of ﬁre.

• Recharge only with the charger speciﬁed by the manufacturer and listed in this

manual. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of

ﬁre when used with another battery pack.

• Do not charge battery in a damp or wet location. Following this rule will reduce the

risk of electric shock.

• Do not place battery-powered tools or their batteries near ﬁre or heat. This will

reduce the risk of explosion and possible injury.

• Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may

cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.

• Do not dispose of battery packs in ﬁre. They will explode or leak and cause injury.

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

• Do not crush, drop or damage the battery pack. Do not use a battery pack that has

been dropped or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to explosion.

Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged battery immediately.

• Batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light.

To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in the

presence of open ﬂame. An exploding battery can propel debris and chemicals. If

exposed, ﬂush with water immediately.

• Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery leakage may occur; liquid

may be ejected from the battery: avoid contact. If liquid comes in contact with

your skin, wash immediately with soap and water, then neutralize with lemon juice

or vinegar. If liquid gets into your eyes, ﬂush them with clean water for at least 10

minutes, then seek immediate medical attention. Following this rule will reduce the

risk of serious personal injury.

• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper

clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a

connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together

may cause sparks, burns, or a ﬁre.

BATTERY CHARGER FOR USE ONLY WITH BATTERY 054-3203-2 OR 054-3206-6.

• To reduce the risk of injury, charge only the speciﬁed lithium-ion rechargeable

batteries. This charger is compatible with only lithium-ion battery. Other types of

batteries may burst, causing personal injury of damage.

• Do not charge battery in a damp or wet location. Following this rule will reduce the

risk of electric shock.

• Keep cord and charger from heat to prevent damage to housing or internal parts.

• Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or plug, which could cause shorting

and electric shock. If damaged, immediately discontinue use. Replace the charger

with the identical model as listed in this manual.

• Do not use a charger that has been dropped or received a sharp blow.

• Do not disassemble charger. Take it to a qualiﬁed service centre for check or

replacement. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or ﬁre.

• Do not abuse the charger cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or

unplugging.

• Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled

cords increase the risk of electric shock. If the charger cord is damaged, replace the

charger with an identical model as listed in this manual.

• A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of ﬁre when

used with another battery pack.
