Turning the vacuum on and off
To turn the vacuum cleaner on or off:
^ Step on the On-Off foot switch.
,To prevent static discharge, your
hand must touch the metal inlay on
the underside of the vacuum hand-
piece. Be certain to continuously
touch this inlay when vacuuming fine
dust, flour, or saw dust as these
materials are most likely to create
static discharge.
To further prevent static discharge,
pull the vacuum along by the hose
with one hand while holding the
handpiece in the other.
