• Use caution when vacuuming materials
that appear to have cooled, but may
actually be hot inside. First check for
hot spots by raking through the
ashes/coals. Air flow created during
vacuuming may cause hot ash to
reignite. As you vacuum, constantly
check the nozzle, hose, drum, and
motor for excessive temperatures. If
you notice an increase in temperature,
turn off the vacuum immediately.
Unplug the vacuum and remove the
vacuumed material from the drum.
• The drum must be emptied and
cleaned after each use, and before
picking up other household debris.
• Allow the vacuum to cool before
storage, especially enclosed storage.
• Do not use paper dust bags.
• To reduce the risk of damage from
accidental hot ember pickup, do not
place the vacuum on surfaces
susceptible to heat damage, such as
carpeting, vinyl flooring, or wood
surfaces.
• Do not leave Vac running while
unattended - you may fail to notice
important signs indicating abnormal
operation such as loss of suction,
debris exiting exhaust, or abnormal
motor noises. Immediately stop using
2
Vac if you notice these signs.
