POWER SUPPLY- WARNING:
YOUR VACUUM MUST BE
CONNECTED TO A 120V, MINIMUM 15-AMP. BRANCH CIRCUIT.
FAILURE TO CONNECT IN THIS WAY CAN RESULT IN INJURY
FROM SHOCK OR FIRE.
DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized two-prong plug
(one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a
polarized outlet. Do not alter or change the plug in any way. Double
insulation eliminates the need for three wire grounded power supply
and grounded power cords.
120V OPERATION-
As received from the factory, your vacuum is ready
to run for 120V operation. This vacuum is intended for use on a circuit
that has an outlet and a plug which looks like the one illustrated in Fig.1.
EXTENSION CORDS
Improper use of extension cords may cause inefficient operation of your
tool which can result in overheating. Be sure your extension cord is
rated to allow sufficient current flow to the motor. If you are using the
tool outdoors, use an extension cord rated for outdoor use (signified by
“SJW or SJTW” on the jacket).
The extension cord must have a minimum wire size depending on the
amperage of the tool and the length of the extension cord. This size is
determined by its AWG (American Wire Gauge) rating. The smaller the
gauge, the greater the cable’s capacity. The amount of cords used does
not matter: Total length determines the minimum AWG rating. Every
cord must meet the AWG rating. Use the chart in Fig.2 to determine
what AWG rating is required for your situation.
