SP6775 RV2400HF ESF RIDGID 8/31/10 3:25 PM Page 11 Operation ! WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, or damage to Vac: • Do not leave Vac running while unattended - you may fail to notice important signs indicating abnormal operation such as loss of suction, debris/liquid exiting exhaust, or abnormal motor noises. Immediately stop using Vac if you notice these signs. • Do not leave Vac plugged-in when not in use. • Do not continue running when float has cut off suction. • Do not operate Vac in areas with flammable gases, vapors or explosive dust in the air. Sparks inside the motor can ignite airborne flammables. Flammable gases and vapors include: lighter fluid, solvent-type cleaners, oil-based paints, gasoline, alcohol, or aerosol sprays. Flammable dusts include: coal, magnesium, aluminum, grain, or gun powder. • Do not vacuum up explosive dusts, flammable liquids, or hot ashes. • Do not use Vac as a sprayer. ! WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or injury: • Do not expose to rain or allow liquid to enter motor compartment. Store indoors. • Do not handle plug, switch, or Vac with wet hands. • Do not service Vac while it is plugged-in. If your Vac is not working as it should, has missing parts, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to an independent service center or call customer service. • When using an extension cord, use only outdoor-rated cords that are in good condition. Do not allow the connection to come into contact with liquid. • Always wear appropriate protective safety equipment when operating. For lead paint renovations, see the EPA's RRP guidelines.
