Warning: The basic vacuum is designed for dry/damp pickup. Do not attempt to
pickup liquids under any condition without using an automatic shut off assembly.
When using the electrical vacuum, basic precautions should always be followed.
The following warnings should be adhered to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or
injury:
1. DO NOT leave vacuum when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before
servicing.
2. Electric shock could occur if used on wet surfaces. DO NOT expose to rain. Store
indoors.
3. Use only as described in this manual. Use only Air Systems' recommended attachments
and replacement filters.
4. DO NOT use with damaged cord or plug. If vacuum is not working as it should because it
has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to Air Systems
for servicing. Call 1-800-866-8100 for a return authorization number. Do not return
contaminated vacuums.
5. DO NOT pull or carry by cord or use cord as a handle. Keep cord away from heated
surfaces.
6. DO NOT unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
7. DO NOT handle plug or vacuum with wet hands.
8. DO NOT put any objects into motor openings. Do not use with openings blocked.
9. DO NOT vacuum up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or
hot ashes.
10. For toxic dusts, do not use without paper filter bag, intermediate filter, and HEPA filter
properly installed.
11. DO NOT use in areas where flammable or combustible liquids, such as gasoline, may be
present.
12. DO NOT use where oxygen or anesthetic gases are used.
13. DO NOT use an extension cord unless absolutely necessary. If an extension cord is used,
then wire size must be 14/3 or larger and should not exceed 50 feet in length. Extension
cord must be a three-wire type to insure "grounding" protection.
14. Replace damaged or worn parts immediately with genuine original equipment parts to
maintain safety and to protect your limited warranty.
Note: Absolute HEPA filtered vacuums meet ANSI Standard Z9.2-1979 with UL-586
tested and labeled HEPA filter.
