IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
GROUNDING OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
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 machine
– if it will not fit the outlet; have a properly grounded outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
Always use a properly grounded 3-wire extension cord, which has
male and female plugs. If 25 foot extension cords are used, the
electrical carrying capacity should be no less than 16-3 ST. 50-foot
extension cords no less than 14-3 ST.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This machine shall be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock. The machine is provided
with a three-conductor cord and a three-contact grounding type attachment plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. The
green conductor in the cord is the ground wire. Never connect this wire to other than the grounding pin of the
attachment plug.
Check nameplate on the machine to be sure
voltage
and
cycle
stated is the same as the electrical outlet. Do not
attempt to plug a 120-volt machine into a 240-volt outlet or a 240-volt machine into a 120-volt outlet. If the machine
is provided with an attachment plug as shown in Figure A. below, it is intended for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit.
If a properly grounded receptacle as shown in Figure A. is not available, an adapter may be installed as shown in
Figure B. if the outlet box that houses the receptacle is grounded. Be sure to fasten the grounding tab (the green
colored rigid ear, lug or the like extending from the adapter) with a metal faceplate screw.
If the machine is provided with an attachment plug as shown in Figure C., it is intended for use on a nominal 240-
volt circuit. No adapter is available for this plug.
If the body of the vacuum has a label of an airplane on it, the unit is for use on airplanes at 120 volt, 400 HZ. DO
NOT use standard 120 voltage on airplanes, damage to the unit, and injury to the operator will occur.
ALL REPAIR SERVICE MUST BE PERFORMED BY AN NSS AUTHORIZED DISTRIBUTOR/
SERVICE STATION USING ONLY NSS ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT PARTS.
