eye damage. Always wear safety goggles

package) before commencing operation.
Safety Goggles are available at Sears
retail stores.
To reduce the risk of hearing damage,
wear ear protectors when using the vac
for extended hours or when using it in a
noisy area.

condition or that are too small in wire size
can pose fire and shock hazards. When
using an extension cord, be sure it is in
good condition. Using any extension cord
will cause some loss of power. To keep
the loss to a minimum, use the following
