GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical
current to reduce the risk of electrical shock. This appliance is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.

DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor
can result in 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.

POWER UNIT INSTALLATION

1.0 POWER UNIT LOCATION AND CONNECTION

The Vacuum System Power Unit is normally placed in the garage
(best location), utility room, or basement. Attic locations should be
avoided (A) if canister is difficult for the user to service, (B) where
temperature exceeds 140 degrees. The Power Unit should be located
out of traffic while still accessible for emptying of dirt canister.

2.0 POWER UNIT MOUNTING

For the AV series vacuum the top of the power unit must be a
minimum of 18" from the ceiling and 18" from the corner walls. For the
FX/ZX series the bottom of the power unit must be a minimum of 18"
from the floor and 18" from the corner walls. This clearance is
necessary to allow adequate air flow to cool motors. If exhaust is
used, refer to Figure 1.
