instructions pertaining to a risk of Fire, electric Shock, or injury to persons
iMpOrtant SaFety inStructiOnS
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
reaD aLL inStructiOnS BeFOre uSinG tHiS appLiance
to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury:
1. Do not leave appliance when plugged in. Unplug
from outlet when not in use and before servicing.
2. Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
3. Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention
is necessary when used by or near children.
4. Use only as described in this manual. Use only
manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
5. Do not use with damaged cord or plug.
If appliance is not working as it should, has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped
into water, return it to a service center.
6. Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle,
close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp
edges or corners. Do not run appliance over cord.
Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
7. Do not unplug by pulling on cord.
To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
8. Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.
9. 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.
10. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of
body away from openings and moving parts.
11. Turn off all controls before unplugging.
12. Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
13. Do not use to pick up flammable or
combustible liquids, such as gasoline, or
use in areas where they may be present.
14. Connect to a properly grounded outlet only.
See Grounding Instructions.
15. Do not pick up anything that is burning
or smoking, such as cigarettes,
matches, or hot ashes.

SaFetyOperatiOnMaintenance Setup
16. Do not use without dust bag
and/or filters in place.
17. FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
18. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating an appliance.
Do not use an appliance while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating
appliances may result in serious personal injury.
19. Maintain labels and nameplates
on the appliance. These carry important safety
information. If unreadable or missing, contact
Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
20. People with pacemakers should consult their
physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in
close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause
pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure.
21. The warnings, precautions, and instructions
discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all
possible conditions and situations that may occur.
It must be understood by the operator that
common sense and caution are factors
which cannot be built into this product,
but must be supplied by the operator.

Grounding instructions
this appliance must be grounded. if it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. this appliance is equipped with a
cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. the plug must be inserted into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to
whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance –
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120‑V circuit
and has a grounding attachment plug that looks like the
plug illustrated in 125 Vac 3-prong plug and Outlet.
Make sure that the appliance is connected to an
outlet having the same configuration as the plug.
No adaptor should be used with this appliance.

extension cords
1. Grounded tools require a three wire extension
cord. Double Insulated tools can use either
a two or three wire extension cord.
2. As the distance from the supply outlet increases,
you must use a heavier gauge extension cord.
Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire
causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of
power and possible tool damage.
(See table a.) The smaller the gauge number
of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord.
For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher
current than a 16 gauge cord. (See table a.)
3. When using more than one extension cord
to make up the total length, make sure
each cord contains at least the minimum
wire size required. (See table a.)
4. If you are using one extension cord for more
than one tool, add the nameplate amperes
and use the sum to determine the required
minimum cord size. (See table a.)
5. If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make
sure it is marked with the suffix “W‑A” (“W” in
Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
6. Make sure the extension cord is properly wired
and in good electrical condition. Always replace
a damaged extension cord or have it repaired
by a qualified electrician before using it.
7. Protect the extension cords from sharp objects,
excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.
