Extension Cords, On rear of motor cover, Awg

This vacuum cleaner is for use on a nominal 120-volt cir- cuit, and has a grounded plug that looks like the plug illus- trated in sketch A. A temporary _dapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in sketches B and C may be used to con- nect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.

NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical code.

Pull tank cover latches in an outward motion and remove tank cover and any acces- sories which may have been shipped in the tank. (Figure 1)

Before replacing tank cover, refer to Dry Pick-Up or Wet

Pick-Up Operation in this manual to ensure you have the proper filters installed and inlet deflector is posi- tioned correctly for your cleaning operation,

Your vacuum comes with the filters already installed for dry pick-up. For filters recom- mended for wet pick-up refer to wet pick-up operation.

Be sure inlet deflector (Figure 2) is in proper

position. Opening up for wet, down for dry vacuuming.

You will find two casters (a), two large wheels (b), two axles (c), and six screws with your wet/dry pump vacuum.

EXTENSION CORDS

When using the vacuum cleaner at a distance where an extension cord becomes necessary, a 3-conductor ground- ing cord of adequate size must be used for safety, and to prevent loss of power and overheating. Use the table below to determine A.W.G. wire size required. To determine ampere rating of your vacuum, refer to nameplate {ocated

on rear of motor cover.

Before using vacuum cleaner, inspect power cord for loose or exposed wires and damaged insulation. Make any need- ed repairs or replacements before using your vacuum cleaner. Use only three-wire outdoor extension cords which have three-prong grounding-type plugs and three-pole receptacles which accept the extension cord's plug. When vacuuming liquids, be sure the extension cord connection does not come in contact with the liquid.

NOTE: Static shocks are common in dry areas or when the relative humidity of the air is low. This is only tempo- rary and does not affect the use of the appliance. To reduce the frequency of static shocks in your home, the best remedy is to add moisture to the air with a console or installed humidifier.
