SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS
• Do not run vac unattended.
• Do not vacuum, or use this Ash Vacuum near ammable liquids, gases, or explosive vapours like gasoline
or other fuels, lighter uids, cleaners, oil-based paints, natural gas, hydrogen, or explosive dusts like coal dust,
magnesium dust, grain dust, or gun power. Sparks inside the motor can ignite ammable vapours or dust.
• Do not vacuum anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
• Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not expose to rain. Store indoors.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
• Do not use with damaged cord, plug or other parts.
• If the appliance is not working as it should, has missing parts, has been dropped or damaged, left
outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service center.
• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners.
• Do not run over the cord.
• Do not handle plug or the Ash Vacuum with wet hands.
• To reduce the risk of health hazards from vapours or dusts, do not vacuum toxic materials.
• Do not use or store near hazardous materials.
• Do not use this Vacuum with a torn lter or without the lter installed.
• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
• To reduce the risk of injury from accidental starting, unplug power cord before changing or cleaning lter.
• Do not leave the Vacuum unattended when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.
• The use of the vacuum can result in foreign objects being blown into the eyes. Always wear safety
goggles complying with ANSI Z87.1 (or in Canada CSAZ94.3) when operating vacuum.
• Turn off Ash Vacuum before unplugging.
• Do not put any object into ventilation openings. Do not vacuum with any ventilation openings blocked;
keep free of dust, lint, hair or anything that may reduce air ow.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, ngers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.
ATTENTION: Vacuuming materials, which appear to have cooled down, may still be very hot inside. Hot
ash particles may ignite again with airow. Wait until the re is extinguished and the ashes have cooled
down before you begin cleaning. It is not recommended to quickly extinguish the re with water. Please
make sure that ashes are cold before you vacuum. Temperature exceeding 100°F (40°C) may damage
the vacuum cleaner and the components included. Continuously check tubes, ash lter, and vacuum
cleaner for excessive temperatures during operation. If you notice a temperature rise, switch off

CAUTION: Never use this product for vacuuming liquids. Only use this unit to vacuum
dry dust material!
