Grounding
Instructions

This appliance 

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 
appliance is equipped with a cord 
having an equipment-grounding 
conductor (A) and grounding plug (B). 
The plug must be plugged into an 
appropriate outlet (C) 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 the 
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 
Fig. 1.1.

Temporary

 adapter (D) may be used 

to connect this plug to a 2-pole recepta-
cle (E) if a properly grounded outlet is 
not available. The 

Temporary 

adapter 

should be used only until a properly 
grounded outlet (C) can be installed by 
a qualified electrician. The green col-
ored rigid ear (F), lug, or the like extend-
ing 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 (G).

NOTE:

 In Canada, the use of a tempo-

rary adapter is 

Not Permitted

 by the 

Canadian Electrical Code.

Intake Configuration:

Muffler Installation:

This unit has been designed to provide the option of left or right side intake. A pipe cap is included for
the purpose of sealing off the unused inlet. (Condominium units are an exception with only a left side
intake option.)

Route vacuum system piping to the chosen intake port, 

do not glue

. Should the unit require being taken 

in for servicing, you will not want it permanently fastened to your tubing system. Use the provided 2" 
gear clamps to attach.

 

Units with a tangential or peripheral bypass motor have an exhaust port for cooling purposes. For 
additional noise reduction a muffler can be installed. 

Do not glue

, attach with the provided  2" gear 

clamp. The exhaust can be routed outside, although it is not necessary. 

Units without an exhaust port contain flo-thru motors, the motor itself provides the necessary cooling.
