shipping damage. Each unit is operated and thoroughly
inspected before shipping, and any damage is the
responsibility of the carrier, who should be notified
immediately.

ELECTRICAL

The WAVE operates on a standard 15-amp 115 volt AC
circuit. This is the typical wall receptacle found in
household and light industrial environments. Voltages
below 105 volts or above 125 volts could cause serious
damage to motors. *Special voltage models available. A
wiring diagram is mounted inside the rear control panel of
machine. A copy of the wiring diagram is included in this
Owner’s Guide.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:

This appliance 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.

This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and
has a grounded plug that looks like the plug in Fig. A. A
temporary adaptor that looks like the adaptor in Fig. B may
be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as
shown in Fig. B, if a properly grounded outlet is not
available. The temporary adaptor should be used only until
a properly grounded outlet 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.

Grounding Information

NOTE:In Canada, the use of a temporary adaptor is not permitted by
the Canadian Electrical Code.
NOTE: Au Canada, I’utiisation d’un adaptateur temporaire n’est pas
autorisee par le Code canadien de l’electricite.

EXTENSION CORDS:

This wide area vacuum is designed to operate on a
standard 15 amp 115 volt, 60hz, AC household current.
Check the voltage shown on the serial number plate is
suitable for the supply available. Voltages below 105 volts
or above 125 volts could cause damage to the motors.

If an extension cord is used, the wire size must be at least
one size larger than the power cord on the machine: The
WAVE is equipped with a 75 ft. 14/3 power cord.

WARNING

Improper connection of the equipment­grounding 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.
