If product is not working properly, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return to your nearest service center.

Do not handle charger plug or canister vac with wet hands.

Do not put any objects in ventilation openings. Do not use with any opening blocked. Keep openings free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air flow.

NEVER vacuum materials such as hot coals, cigarette butts, matches, burning or smoking ashes, etc.

DO NOT use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids, such as gasoline, or use in areas where they may be present.

Do not use without dust bowl or filter in place.

Turn off all controls before unplugging from or plugging into an electrical outlet for charging.

Use extra care when using on stairs.

Do not use to pick up hard objects such as nails, screws, coins, etc. Damage or injury could result.

Do not incinerate this appliance even if it is severely damaged. The batteries can explode in a fire.

Canister vac does not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet, therefore it is always in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards when using the canister vac or when changing accessories.

Remove battery when the vacuum is not in use and before servicing.

Use only the charger recommended for your canister vac. Do not substitute any other charger. Use of another charger could cause batteries to explode causing possible serious injury.

Use battery only with charger listed. For use with 19.2V nickel-cadmium and 19.2V lithium-ion battery packs, see tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correlation supplement 988000-272.

Do not place canister vac or batteries near fire or heat. They may explode.

The product should be charged in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but less than 100°F.

Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact with skin, wash at least 10 minutes then seek immediate medical attention.

Batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in the presence of an open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water immediately.

Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the product’s operation. If damaged, have the product serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained products.

Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one canister vac may create a risk of injury when used on another canister vac.

DETACHABLE TOOL STORAGE BELT

See Figure 6, page ii.

When not in use, the vacuum attachments provided with the canister vac can be placed in the storage areas

DRY VACUUMING

WARNING: NEVER vacuum materials such as hot coals, cigarette butts, matches, burning or smoking ashes, etc.

Vacuum only items small enough to fit through the hose or the attachment. When vacuuming, make sure that the dry use filter stays in place. The performance of the canister vac will decrease with a full collection container. Upon emptying the collection container, check to see if the dry use filter needs replacing.

NOTE: The canister vac is shipped ready for dry use vacuuming. To equip the canister vac for wet use, see Switching Filters in the MAINTENANCE section of this manual.

WET VACUUMING

The canister vac can be used to vacuum small amounts of liquid. However, use caution when vacuuming larger amounts of liquid, as this could cause possible problems. When wet or dry vacuuming, make sure the drain plug is firmly in place.

When wet vacuuming, be aware that your canister vac is equipped with a check ball inside the filter unit housing. This check ball is specially designed to work with wet vacuuming applications to shut the suction off when the collection container reaches full capacity. When the

suction shuts off due to a full collection container, turn the canister vac OFF and empty the collection container as shown in MAINTENANCE.

NOTE: When wet vacuuming, it is necessary to change the filter from the dry use filter to the included wet use foam filter. To equip the canister vac for wet use, see Switching Filters in the MAINTENANCE section of this manual.

WARNING: When vacuuming liquid, make sure the canister vac does not get submerged or doused in liquid, which could cause shock, vacuum failure, or personal injury.

USING THE CANISTER VAC AS A BLOWER

See Figure 7, page ii.

WARNING: Never use blower near fires, fireplaces, hot ashes, barbecue pits, etc., which may cause fire to spread.

At all times, the canister vac blows air through the blower port as part of the exhaust system. However, you can use the canister vac as a blower by attaching the wand to the blower port.

Remove the battery pack from the canister vac.

Remove the hose from the tank if attached.

Remove the detachable tool storage belt.

Remove the motor unit from the collection container assembly by lifting the latches simultaneously.

Remove the wand from the hose if attached.

To attach the wand, push larger end of wand into the opening of the blower port. For wider air flow, attach the car nozzle to the end of the wand.

To remove the wand, pull wand from opening in blower port.

To keep from scattering debris, blow around the outer edges of a debris pile. Never blow directly into the center of a pile.

Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing. In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water is available.

Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly washed cars, and blow debris safely away.

After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP! Dispose of debris properly.
