16. This vacuum is for commercial use only.
17. Connect to a properly grounded outlet only. See grounding instructions
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, 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 equipment grounding conductor and 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.
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 grounded plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A below. A temporary adapt-
er that looks like the adapter illustrated in sketches B and C may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly
grounded receptacle is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be
installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored ear, lug, or the like extending 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.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.
