ŸNEVER allow children to play around the
AS 500.
ŸStore the AS 500 in clean, dry environment. Do
not store outdoors. Do not allow water inside
the unit’s motor. If the motor becomes wet,
allow it to thoroughly dry before use.
ŸOperate the AS 500 on a flat surface. Do not
operate where unit could fall, or on slippery
surfaces. This increases the chance of injury,
fire, or electrical shock.
ŸDo not move or carry the AS 500 while it is
operang. When operang, the powerful
airflow can cause unpredictable movement.
ŸKeep all liquids from being drawn into the
AS 500. Never operate unit without factory
installed safety inlet and outlet grills in place.
ŸDo not use the AS 500 near combusble gas,
or hot air. Units could melt and cause a fire or
electrical hazard.
ŸDo not alter or modify your AS 500 in any way.
ŸUnplug before service or changing filters.
The HAWK AS 500 HEPA Air Scrubber is a portable
filtraon system that removes airborne parcles
including mold, pet dander, dust, pollen, drywall
dust, and other miscellaneous debris as small as
0.3 microns. The AS 500 ulizes up to 3 stages of
filtraon including a pre-filter, oponal 2nd stage,
and a HEPA filter. The AS 500 will create cleaner air
in any environment. The pre-filter and second
stage filter capture larger parcles and the HEPA
filter captures smaller parcles.
ŸNever use the AS 500 near water. Prevent risk
of serious injury from electrical shock.
ŸHandle the AS 500 carefully to avoid causing
damage or injury.
ŸUse only replacement parts authorized by
Hawk Modificaons or use of unauthorized
parts could create a hazard and will void your
warranty.
ŸDo not stack more than 2 units high in order to
avoid a pping hazard – falling equipment can
cause bodily harm.
Warnings!
ŸMake sure the air intake and outlet are free
from all materials and away from obstrucons
Any restricons may cause the AS 500 to

Auxiliary/GFCI Outlet/Daisy Chain
You can interconnect (“daisy-chain”) up to three
AS 500 units to customize your air filtraon needs.
The GFCI will “trip” if it detects a sudden “ground
fault,” or overload and interrupt the electric
current. When the GFCI “trips,” unplug the unit
and look for potenal hazards such as standing
water, frayed cords, or anything that would cause a
dangerous electrical problem. If such a situaon
exists, plug the AS 500 into a different outlet and
then push the “reset” buon which is located
between the 2 outlets on the GFCI. If the unit will
not operate check the circuit breaker secon

Filters should be changed aer every remediaon
job and whenever the filter change indicator light
comes on. The unit should also be cleaned aer

AS 500 must be dry before installing clean filters.
1) Unplug the AS 500
outward, away from the AS 500 body.
The AS 500 is equipped with a circuit breaker
switch to protect the motor. The switch is located
directly above the GFCI outlet and cuts off power
to the unit when it detects an unsafe amount of
electricity passing through the unit. If the switch
“trips,” unplug the unit and look for potenal
hazards or anything that may be creang an
