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 - 115 Volt

This machine is designed to operate on a standard 15 amp. 115 volt, 60 hz, AC circuit. Voltages
below 105 volts AC or above 125 volts AC could cause serious damage to the motor.

ELECTRICAL - 240 Volt

This machine is designed to operate on a standard 10 amp. 230 volt, 50 hz, AC circuit.

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 machine is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug
illustrated in Sketch A. Make sure that the machine is connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this appliance.

WARNING

This vacuum may contain potentially hazardous dust depending on its appilcation. Special
handling of contaminated disposal bags and filters is recommended. Disposal must be in
compliance with local EPA regulations

USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

All service and repair should be performed by qualified vacuum service representative 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 ASSEMBLY

Cloth bag and hose assembly are user maintenance items and can be replaced when worn out. For
optimum performance, empty and clean filter bag regularly. A clogged and dirty bag restricts the
flow of air and results in reduced vacuum. The hose assembly 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 assembly. Cord
should be completely unwound from lid assembly during operation.

• Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working as it should, has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into 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.

Always unplug the machine when removing the motor head off the tank. This equipment should be
stored indoors and not expposed to rain.
