Vacuum Cleaner Safety Rules
Vacuum Cleaner Care
Do not use this vacuum
cleaner for EPA Lead
Based Paint Renovation, Repair and
Painting Program (RRP), where lead may
be present. Using this vacuum cleaner for
EPA RRP program may cause health and
environmental hazards.
Do not use to vacuum
hazardous or toxic
substances or dusts, e.g., asbestos. The
standard HEPA filter is not able to capture
all hazardous particles, which may cause
health hazards.
Do not use to vacuum
concrete dust and/or
other materials that include silica. The
filter is not able to capture all silica dust,
which may cause health hazards.
Do not use vacuum cleaner if switch
does not turn it ON or OFF. Any vacuum
cleaner that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
Do not vacuum dust when liquid/fluid is
contained in the vacuum cleaner
canister. Do not vacuum liquids/fluids
when dust is in the canister. In either
case empty the canister and/or remove
dust bag before use so that dust does
not cake and harden inside the canister.
Dry filters completely after wet
vacuuming or use a second dry filter set
for dust vacuuming. Damp or wet filters
will cake with dust or develop mold or
mildew.
Store idle vacuum cleaner out of reach
of children and other untrained persons.
Vacuum cleaners are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
Maintain vacuum cleaner with care.
Properly maintain vacuum cleaner to
keep hose unobstructed. Do not put any
object into openings. Do not use with
any opening blocked; keep free of dust,
lint, hair and anything that may reduce
air flow. Any alteration or modification is
a misuse and may result in a dangerous
condition.
Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, and
any other condition that may affect the
vacuum cleaner operation. If damaged,
have the vacuum cleaner serviced
before using. Poorly maintained vacuum
cleaners cause many accidents. Develop
a periodic maintenance schedule for your
vacuum cleaner.
Service
Only qualified repair personnel must
perform vacuum cleaner service. Service
or maintenance performed by unqualified
personnel could result in a risk of injury.
For example: internal wires may be
misplaced or pinched.
When servicing a vacuum cleaner, use
only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions in the Maintenance section
of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts
or failure to follow the Maintenance
Instructions may create a risk of electric
shock or injury. Certain cleaning agents
such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride,
ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.
