• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or
corners. Do not run appliance over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

• Turn off appliance before connecting or disconnecting hose or power attachments.
• Hold plug when rewinding onto cord reel. Do not allow plug to whip when rewinding.
• Unplug before connecting non-electrical mechanical accessories.
• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider that the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Do not use adapters.
