INSPECTION
Carefully unpack and inspect your machine for shipping damage. Each unit is tested and thoroughly
inspected before shipment, and any damage is the responsibility of the delivery carrier who should
be notified immediately.
ELECTRICAL
This machine is designed to operate on a standard 15 amp. 115 volt, 60 hz, AC circuit. V oltages
below 105 volts AC or above 125 volts AC could cause serious damage to the motor.
ELECTRICAL -
This machine is designed to operate on a standard 10 amp. 230 volt, 50 hz, AC circuit.
115 Volt
-
240 Volt
WARNING
Electric motors can cause explosions when operated near explosive materials or vapors. Do not
operate this machine near flammable materials such as solvents, thinners, fuels, grain dust, etc.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, 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 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 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 plug that looks like the
plug illustrated in sketch A below. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having
the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this appliance.
Adapter not applicable in Canada.

USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
All service and repair should be performed by qualified vacuum service represent ative or electrician.
No user serviceable components are employed in the electrical vacuum lid head assembly. No
lubrication of the motor is required.
CLOTH BAG & HOSE ASSY
Cloth bag and hose assy are user maintenance items and can be replaced when worn out. Cloth
bags can be maintained by blowing dust off the bag and then laundered. Cloth bags should be
completely dried before reinstalling into machine. For optimum performance, empty and clean
filter bag regularly . A clogged and dirty bag restricts the flow of air and results in reduced vacuum.
For liquid pickup, remove the dry dust filter bag. Check the automatic shut-off to be certain it is
working properly. The hose assy can be maintained by wiping off with a dampened cloth of mild
liquid soap and water, then allowed to dry.
CORD STORAGE
While not in use storage can be accomplished by winding cord around motor lid assy. Cord
should be completely unwound from lid assy during operation.
• Do not use with damaged cord of plug. If appliance is not working as it should, has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped in water, return to service center.
• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around
sharp edges or corners. Do not run appliance over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not unplug by pulling cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
• Do not handle plug or appliance with wet hands.
Always unplug the machine when removing the motor head off the tank. This equipment should
be stored indoors and not exposed to rain.
