Inspection
Unpack and inspect your extractor for shipping damage. Each unit is tested and inspected prior to
shipping. For any concerns regarding shipping damage, contact your dealer immediately. All returns
must have a Return Authorization (RA) number.
Grounding Instructions
The extractor MUST BE GROUNDED . If the machine should stop working or malfunction, grounding
offers a path of least resistance for electrical current, reducing the risk of electrical shock. This
machine is equipped with a cord that has an equipment grounding conductor and a 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. Cutting off the ground wire or using a cord that is not
properly grounded will void the manufacturers warranty on this machine.
