SAVE THESE J
The operation of any utility vac or blower
can result in foreign objects being blown
into the eyes, which can result in severe
eye damage. Always wear safety goggles
complying with ANSI Z87.1 (or in Canada
CSA Z94.3) before commencing
operation. Everyday eyeglasses have only
impact resistant lenses. They are not
safety glasses. Safety Goggles are
available at Sears retail stores. Glasses or
goggles not in compliance with ANSI or
CSA could seriously hurt you when they
break.
WEAR YOUR
NSTRUCTJONS
To reduce the risk of hearing damage,
wear ear protectors when using the vac for
extended hours or when using it in a noisy
area.
For dusty operations, wear dust mask.
Use only extension cords that are rated for
outdoor use. Extension cords in poor
condition or that are too small in wire size
can pose fire and shock hazards. When
using an extension cord, be sure it is in
good condition. Using any extension cord
will cause some loss of power. To keep the
loss to a minimum, use the following table
to choose the minimum wire size
extension cord.
