Safety Instructions Continued
Reduce the Risk of Fire, Electric Shock, or Injury
- DO NOT use without the proper cloth filtration bag, paper filter bag, and other filters in place. Failure to do so will VOID your warranty.
- DO NOT use the vacuum to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they may be present.
- Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
- DO NOT use where oxygen or anesthetics are used.
- Turn off all controls before unplugging. Make sure the on/off switch is in the OFF position.
- The extension cord provided with this unit is 50-foot, 16/3-gauge wire and MUST be used with this unit to ensure grounding protection.
- Replace damaged or worn parts immediately with genuine, original equipment parts to maintain safety and to protect your limited warranty.
- DO NOT lubricate the motor.
- DO NOT tie extension cord to pigtail cord. This will damage the cord and will not be covered under warranty.
- DO NOT overstretch the safety power cord between the vacuum and the electrical outlet in the wall.
- DO NOT use without all filters correctly secured in place.
- When using the vacuum with a powerhead tool and connection, always turn OFF the vacuum and nozzle tool before connecting or disconnecting either the hose or power
nozzle. Depending on your vacuum model, the hose may contain electrical wires.
DO NOT use when damaged, cut, or punctured.
Always turn OFF the vacuum before connecting, disconnecting, or working on the
vacuum. The vacuum must be connected to a properly grounded outlet only (see
grounding instructions, Section 2.0).
Grounding Instructions
DANGER: IMPROPER GROUNDING METHODS CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
Electrical equipment must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current and
reduces the risk
of electric shock. The vacuum is equipped with a cord containing a 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.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, DO NOT connect the
grounded wire to a flatbed terminal. The green insulated wire, with or without
yellow stripes, is the grounding wire.

Grounding Instructions Continued
The electric vacuum is for use on a normal 120-volt circuit. It has a grounded
plug that fits the outlet illustrated in Figure A. If a properly grounded
outlet is not available, a
temporary adapter, such as the adapter illustrated in Figures B and C, may be
used to connect the plug into a 2-pole outlet, as shown in Figure C.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet,
Figure A, can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green color rigid
ear lug or grounding
means extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground, such
as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must
be held in
place by its grounding means and a metal screw, as shown in Figure C.
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 equipment. If it will not fit into the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified
electrician.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the
Canadian Electrical Code.
Care of your Backpack Vacuum Cleaner
Treat your vacuum as you would any other high-grade precision-made product.
Dropping, unreasonable bumping across thresholds, and other misuses may result
in a
the damaged unit which will not be covered under warranty.
When not in use, the power cord should be wrapped around the molded-in cord
wrap for storage. After each use, wipe the vacuum body, accessories, and power
cord with a
slightly damp cloth.
WARNING: DO NOT use a vacuum without the proper cloth filtration bag, paper
filter bag, and other filters in place. Failure to do so will VOID your
warranty.
If using vacuum in paint, sawdust, or drywall environment, you must dispose
of paper filter bag and shakeout cloth filter bag after each use. Failure to
do so will cause severe damage to your vacuum and VOID your warranty. Dispose
of paper filter bag in a fireproof container. The combination of urethane and
wood may resul t in combustion.

-
Make sure the on/off switch is in the OFF position.
-
Remove lid and check to make sure you have both a cloth filter bag and paper filter bag in place. Place the lid back onto the vacuum body, tightening securely. Both bags
must be used at all times. Any damage resulting from the lack of using both bags will VOID your warranty. -
Wrap the safety power cord around the molded-in cord wrap on the side of the vacuum. Do not tie or loop the pigtail cord with the extension cord.
-
Loosen the shoulder and waist belt straps and slide vacuum on.
-

Cloth Filter Maintenance:
The cloth filter should be inspected and cleaned each time you empty the tank.

a soft bristle brush. CAUTION: Always exercise caution when handling the
vacuum. Dropping the vacuum could cause permanent damage to the internal
components.
operation and Assembly Instructions Continued
HEPA Cloth Filter Maintenance :
When the white disk inside your dome filter is discolored, replace it with a
new HEPA filter with bag support. The replacement time frame of the HEPA
filter depends on the

months.

of your vacuum. All filters must be used at all times. Failure to do so will
VOID your warranty.
