When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS MACHINE
WARNING
: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury:
1.
You must have training in the operation of this machine before using it.
2.
Machines can cause an explosion when near flammable materials and vapors. Do not use this machine with or near fuels, grain dust,
solvents, thinners, or other flammable materials.
3.
Do not operate this machine unless it is completely assembled.
4.
Do not use this unit for dry pick-up of dust or debris. Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking.
5.
To prevent electric shock, always remove the electrical plug from the electrical outlet before doing any repairs or maintenance to this
machine. Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
6.
To prevent injury, always remove the electrical plug from the electrical outlet before leaving the machine.
7.
Maintenance and repairs must be done by authorized personnel only.
8.
Do not immerse. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, use only on carpet moistened by the cleaning process. Protect the machine from
rain. Keep the machine in a dry building. Always clean the machine with a clean dry cloth.
9.
Always use a three-wire electrical system connected to the electrical ground. For maximum protection against electrical shock, use a
circuit that is protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter. Consult your electrical contractor.
10. To prevent damage to the power cord, do not move this machine over the power cord. Always lift the power cord over the machine.
Do not pull or carry cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. Keep cord away from
heated surfaces.
11. Make sure all switches are turned off before plugging or unplugging it power cord into/from a wall receptacle.
12. Do not use water that is hotter than 60
°
C (140
°
F).
13. To prevent damage to the solution system components do not store in freezing temperatures without proper maintenance.
14. Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If the machine is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or
dropped into water, return it to a service center.
15. Do not handle the plug or machine with wet hands.
16. Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked. Keep free of dust, lint, hair and anything that may reduce
the airflow.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This machine 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 machine is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be in-
serted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
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 proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This machine is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounded plug
that looks like the plug illustrated in figure A. A temporary adapter that
looks like the adapter illustrated in figures B and C may be used to connect this
plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in figure B if a properly grounded outlet
is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly
grounded outlet (figure A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The
green colored rigid 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
EXTENSION CORDS
Use only three-wire 14/3 or larger gauge approved extension cords that have
three-prong grounding type plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept the
appliance’s plug. Replace or repair any damaged cords or plugs.
When servicing, refer to authorized person only. Use only identical replace-
ment parts.

NOTE:
Do not use adapters shown in figures B & C in Canada
