IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Read and understand this manual and all labels on the
Vacuum before operating.
• Use only as described in this manual.
• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, like
cigarettes, matches or hot, glowing, or burning embers.
Pick up cold ash only. Be aware that ash/embers can be hot
for days after use.
• Use caution when vacuuming materials that appear to have
cooled, but may actually be hot inside. First check for hot
spots by raking through the ashes/coals. Air flow created
during vacuuming may cause hot ash to re-ignite. As you
vacuum, constantly check the nozzle, hose, drum, and motor
for excessive temperatures. If you notice an increase in
temperature, turn off the vacuum immediately. Unplug the
vacuum and remove the vacuumed material from the drum.
• The drum must be emptied and cleaned after each use,
and before picking up other household debris.
• Allow the vacuum to cool before storage, especially enclosed
storage.
• Do not use paper dust bags.
• To reduce the risk of damage from accidental hot ember
pickup, do not place the vacuum on surfaces susceptible
to heat damage, such as carpeting, vinyl flooring, or wood
surfaces.
• Do not leave vacuum running while unattended - you
may fail to notice important signs indicating abnormal
operation such as loss of suction, or abnormal motor noises.
Immediately stop using vacuum if you notice these signs.
• Do not leave vacuum when plugged in. Unplug from
outlet when not in use and before servicing.
• Sparks inside the motor can ignite flammable vapors
or dust. To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, do not
use near combustible liquids, gases, or dusts, such as
gasoline or other fuels, lighter fluid, cleaners, oil-based
paints, natural gas, coal dust, magnesium dust, grain
dust, aluminum dust, or gun powder.
• To reduce the risk of inhaling toxic vapors, do not
vacuum or use near toxic or hazardous materials.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose
to rain or allow liquid to enter motor compartment.
Store indoors.
• This Ash Vacuum is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
• Only use extension cords that are intended
for outdoor use. Use only three-wire outdoor
extension cords that have three-prong grounding plugs
and grounding receptacles that accept the vacuum’s
plug. Extension cords in poor condition or too small in
wire size can pose fire and shock hazards. To reduce
the risk of these hazards, be sure the cord is in good
condition and that liquid does not contact the
connection. Do not use an extension cord with
conductors smaller than 1,3 mm
2
(16 AWG) in size.
• Do not use with damaged cord, plug, or other parts.
If your Vacuum is not working as it should, has
missing parts, has been dropped, damaged, left
outdoors, or dropped into water, call customer service at
1-888-331-4569 (Mexico 001-881-331-4569).
• Connect only to a properly-grounded outlet.
See grounding instructions
• 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
flow.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body
away from openings and moving parts.
• To reduce the risk of falls, use extra care when cleaning
on stairs.
• To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to
Vacuum, use only CRAFTSMAN recommended
accessories.
• To reduce the risk of eye injury, wear safety eyewear.
The operation of any utility vacuum can result in foreign
objects being blown into the eyes, which can result in
severe eye damage.
• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is
necessary when used by or near children.
• Turn off Vac before unplugging.
• To reduce the risk of injury from accidental starting,
unplug power cord before changing or cleaning filter.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the
plug, not the cord.
• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as handle, close a
door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners.
Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
