Grounding 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 inserted 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 replacement parts. NOTE: Do not use adapters shown in figures B & C in Canada Vacuum Switch #911089 #1 Wht Jumper #911211 #3 Wht #2 Wht Brush Switch #911089 Vacuum Blk Motor Blk Blk Vacuum Motor Blk Gr Blk Blk Wht Wht Gr Cord Assembly #908086 Gr Wire Conectors (5 Locations) #911179 Gr Brush Motor 3
