Item Description
1. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
2. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
3. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools dry and clean. Properly maintained tools are less
likely to bind and are easier to control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do
not use” until repaired.
4. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other
condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before
using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
5. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Acces-
sories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance
performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the
“Inspection, Maintenance, And Cleaning” section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts
or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a risk of injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
1. Maintain a safe working environment. Keep the work area well lit. Make sure there is
adequate surrounding workspace. Always keep the work area free of obstructions, grease,
oil, trash, and other debris. Do not use the Brake Bleeder/Vacuum Pump in areas near
flammable chemicals, dusts, and vapors. Do not use this product in a damp or wet location.
2. Maintain labels and nameplates on this product. These carry important information. If
unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
3. Keep the Handles of the Brake Bleeder dry, clean, and free from brake fluid, oil, and
grease.
4. Prior to using the Brake Bleeder/Vacuum Pump make sure to read and understand all
warnings, safety precautions, and instructions as outlined in the vehicle manufacturer’s
instruction manual. Every vehicle has specific measurement values for vacuum related
readings. It is beyond the scope of this manual to properly describe the correct procedure
and test data for each vehicle.
5. WARNING! Carbon monoxide is produced while a vehicle’s engine is operating and is
deadly in a closed environment. Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the
flu, with headaches, dizziness, or nausea. If you have these signs, the work area may not
be vented properly. Get fresh air immediately.
6. Prior to using the Brake Bleeder/Vacuum Pump, make sure to place the vehicle’s trans-
mission in “PARK” (if automatic) or “NEUTRAL” (if manual). Then, block the tires with chocks.
