This vacuum 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 vacuum 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.
This vacuum is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a
grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated
in Figure
B. Grounding
. Make sure that the vacuum is
connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the
plug. No adapter should be used with this vacuum.
WARNING - 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 vacuum. If it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
