and nut provided (see illustration below)

GLUE

.

NOTE FOR 700VF1 UNIT ONLY

 

 If desired, the 

coupling or elbow 
used to connect 
the exhaust line to 
the top of the unit 
may be secured 
using two 5/8” 
included screws. 
See illustration at 
right. 

NOTE: Using flexible tubing will ease future top cap removal.

  Make sure all tubing connections are air tight.

 The exhaust should not be vented into a wall, ceiling or 

concealed space in the house. It is recommended to vent 
the vacuum exhaust air to the outdoors. Exterior vented 
exhaust line should end using Model V145 wall cap.

  NOTE: 

For optimal indoor air quality, exhausting the 
power unit to the outdoors is recommended but is 
not required, especially for 700VF1 unit which is 
equipped with an exhaust HEPA filter.

Grounding Instructions – This appliance 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 appliance 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.

WIRING

15-amp branch circuit with a NEMA 5-15R receptacle. Make 
sure that the power unit is connected to an outlet and has a 
grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug shown in 
illustration below. No adapter should be used with this power 
unit.

NOTE:  Inlet leads to be connected to power unit low voltage
