SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

PRODUCT SAFETY
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints;
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products;
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

WARNING: This product can expose you to
chemicals including lead and Di(2-Ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

FOR ALL BATTERY–OPERATED APPLIANCES:

1. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to the battery pack, picking up or carrying the appliance.
   Carrying the appliance with your finger on the switch or energizing an appliance that have the switch on invites accidents.

2. Disconnect the battery pack from the appliance before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the appliance. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the appliance accidentally.

3. 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.

4. Use appliances only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

5. 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.

6. 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.

7. Do not use a battery pack or appliance that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.

8. Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130°C may cause explosion.

9. Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or appliance 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.

2. Do not suck objects with high temperature such as carbon ash. Please let it cool down first.

3. Clean the HEPA filter regularly.

Wet Vacuuming

This machine is equipped with double- probe detector, which is designed to shut off the suction when the collection

container reaches full wet capacity. When the collection container is full, empty

the collection container as shown in Maintenance.

Attention:

1. Put the machine on the flat ground.

2. Make sure the filter is completely dry after picking up water or wet dust.
