Safety Warnings and Precautions

WARNING: When using tool, basic safety precautions should always be fol­lowed to reduce the risk of personal injury and damage to equipment.

Read all instructions before using this product!

1. Avoid working alone. If an accident happens, an assistant can bring help.

2. Avoid electrical shock. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, ranges, and cabinet enclosures when testing voltages.

3. Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries.

4. Observe work area conditions. Don’t expose to rain. Keep work area
well lighted.

5. Keep children away. Children must never be allowed in the work area. Do
not let them handle machines, tools, or extension cords.

6. Store idle equipment. When not in use, tools must be stored in a dry
location to inhibit rust. Always lock up tools and keep out of reach of
children.

7. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be
caught in moving parts. Protective, electrically nonconductive clothes and
nonskid footwear are recommended when working. Wear restrictive hair
covering to contain long hair.

8. Use eye and ear protection. Always wear ANSI approved impact safety
goggles.

9. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not
reach over or across electrical cables or frames.

10. Maintain tools with care. Inspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged,
have them repaired by an authorized technician.

11. Use the right tool for the job. Do not attempt to force a small Coolant
Pump or attachment to do the work of a larger industrial Coolant Pump.
There are certain applications for which this product was designed. Do not
modify this Coolant Pump and do not use this tool for a purpose for which it
was not intended.

12. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not oper ate
any Coolant Pump when you are tired.

13. Check for damaged parts. Before using any Coolant Pump, any part that
appears damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will
operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment and
binding of moving parts; any broken parts or mounting fixtures; and any
other condition that may affect proper operation. Any part that is damaged
should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified technician. Do not use
the tool if lever does not turn On and Off properly.

14. Replacement parts and accessories. When servicing, use only identical
replacement parts. Use of any other parts will void the warranty. Only use
accessories intended for use with this Coolant Pump. Approved accessories
are available from Harbor Freight Tools.

15. Do not operate Coolant Pump if under the influence of alcohol or
drugs. Read warning labels on prescriptions to determine if your judgment
or reflexes are impaired while taking drugs. If there is any doubt, do not
operate the Coolant Pump.

16. Use proper size and type extension cord. If an extension cord is required,
it must be of the proper size and type to supply the correct current to the tool
without heating up. Otherwise, the extension cord could melt and catch fire, or
cause electrical damage to the tool. This tool requires use of an extension
cord of 0 to 10 amps capability (up to 50 feet), with wire size rated at 18
AWG. Longer extension cords require larger siz e wire. If you are using the
tool outdoors, use an extension cord rated for outdoor use. (signified by “W A”
on the jacket).

17. Maintenance. For your safety, maintenance should be performed regularly
by a qualified technician.

Note: Performance of this tool (if powered by line voltage) may vary depending on
variations in local line voltage. Extension cord usage may also affect tool perfor­mance.

are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by
