This Wet/Dry Vac is intended for house-
hold use only. The Professional Wet/Dry
vac is supplied with a two stage/high
efficiency filter. It can be used not only to
pick up materials like sawdust and gravel
but also ultra fine material like drywall dust
and cold fireplace ash. Material that is so
small it would pass through traditional
filters.

extended hours or when using it in a noisy

Use only extension cords that are rated for
outdoor use. Extension cords in poor
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 table
to choose the minimum wire size
extension cord.

Static Shocks Are Common - In dry
