the power tool outlet is grounded and the
vacuum must be plugged into an outlet
properly installed and grounded in
accordance with
ordinances. never remove the grounding
prong or modify the plug in any way. Do

screwdrivers into power tool outlet. The
outlet is live when the vacuum is plugged into
power source and switch is set to power tool
activation mode or filter cleaning mode.

surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is grounded. If

unavoidable; a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter must be used to supply the power
to your vacuum. Electrician's rubber gloves
and footwear will further enhance your
