WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK
OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY:
• Read and understand this operator’s manual
and all labels on the Pump Accessory before
operating. Use only as described in this
manual.
• Do not operate this Pump Accessory without
being installed on a Wet/Dry Vac or without
the strainer installed.
• Do not install pump, motor, or any electrical
components below water level. This pump is
not submersible.
• Do not leave pump running while
unattended.

based paints, natural gas, hydrogen, coal
dust, magnesium dust, grain dust, or gun
powder.
• Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not expose to rain. For indoors use only.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug,
grasp the GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter) plug, not the cord.
• Do not use with damaged cord, plug or other
parts.

• If your Pump Accessory is not working
as it should, has missing parts, has

or dropped into water, return it to an
Independent Service Center.

handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord
around sharp edges or corners.

same electrical circuit that is being used by
the Wet/Dry Vac.

• Keep hair, loose clothing, ngers, and all
parts of body away from openings and
moving parts.
• To reduce the risk of eye injury, wear safety
eyewear. 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.
• This pump is supplied with a grounding
conductor and grounding-type attachment
plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be
certain that it is connected only to a properly
grounded, grounding type receptacle.
