Electrical equipment must be grounded. If
it should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce the
risk of electric shock. This vacuum 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
This electric equipment is for use on a
nominal 120 volt circuit, and has a
grounded plug that looks like the plug
illustrated in (Fig A). A temporary adaptor
that looks like the adaptor illustrated in

plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in
(Fig B) if a properly grounded outlet is not
available.
and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug
is necessary, DO NOT connect the grounded wire to either flat blade terminal. The
wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow
stripes is the grounding wire.
GROUNDING
METHODS
The temporary adaptor should be used
only until a properly grounded outlet (Fig
A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green color 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. (Fig C)
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 equipment. If it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Note:
In Canada, the use of a temporary adaptor is not permitted
by the Canadian Electrical Code.
