CAUTION:
·
To reduce the risk of hearing damage, wear ear protection when using for
extended hours or in a noisy area.
·
For dusty operations, wear dust mask.
·
Static shocks are common when the relative humidity of the air is low.
Vacuuming fine debris can deposit static charge on the hose or vacuum. To
reduce the frequency of static shocks, add moisture to the air with a
humidifier.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This vacuum must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
WARNING Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in
a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are
in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the appliance if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding attachment
plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A below. A temporary adaptor that
looks like the adaptor illustrated in sketches B and C may be used to connect this plug to
a two pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adaptor should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A)
can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug or the like
extending from the adaptor must be connected to a permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be held in
place by a metal screw.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of an adaptor is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical
Code.
